Kitakyushu City

Located at the northernmost tip of Kyushu, the city is a place where rich nature and the city coexist. Kokura, which flourished as a castle town and still retains its history and traditions, and Moji Port, which prospered as an international trading port, are popular. Don't miss Mt. Sarakura with its beautiful night view, the view of Kawachi Wisteria Garden, and Hiraodai, one of the Three Great Karsts of Japan. Surrounded by three seas, it is also the world's greatest sushi mecca.
