Overview of your Fukuoka tour:

Is this your first visit to Fukuoka? If yes, this tour is perfect for you. We take a train to Dazaifu Tenmangu shrine. It is dedicated to the god of education, Michizane who was a politician and scholar in the 9th century in Kyoto. He was falsely accused and exiled from Kyoto to Dazaifu. What happened to Michizane after the exile? Why did people revere him as the god of education? Let's find out answers while walking an awe-inspiring shrine with me. After visiting the main hall, you can enjoy window shopping and local sweets 'Umegae mochi'. Hakata area had been a gate of Japan since ancient times and there are many old temples and shrines which founded more than 1000 years ago. Why don't we visit one of these old temples, Kushida shrine? *Note: From March 2023, it will take about three years to renovate the main hall at Dazaifu Tenmangu shrine. In the meantime, we'll visit the temporary hall. *You can pay Nishitetsu train ticket with a contactless credit card (Visa, JCB, American Express, Diners Club).
