• Mojiko Retro - Situated in Kitakyushu, Japan, Mojiko is a delightful port town celebrated for its well-preserved retro architecture and picturesque waterfront. Once a thriving international trading hub, Mojiko now offers visitors a nostalgic journey back to the early 20th century with attractions such as Mojiko Station, Kaikyo Plaza, and the Mojiko Retro District, which is brimming with cafes, museums, and shops.

A distinctive feature of Mojiko is the Kanmon Pedestrian Tunnel, a 780-meter-long undersea passage that allows pedestrians to walk beneath the Kanmon Strait, linking Kyushu and Honshu. The tunnel is free for pedestrians and takes approximately 15 minutes to cross. Bicycles and motorbikes can also use the tunnel for a small fee, but must be pushed through.
Another popular activity is the Kanmon Ferry, offering a brief, scenic 5-minute journey between Mojiko and Shimonoseki. This ferry ride provides breathtaking views of the Kanmon Bridge and the surrounding sea, making it a delightful way to cross the strait.

• Kokura Castle - At Kokura Castle, visitors will be enchanted by the striking Tang-style architecture of the castle tower, renowned for its simple yet bold design that distinguishes it from other Japanese castles. Surrounding the castle, the Kokura Castle Garden offers a tranquil retreat where guests can wander among seasonal flowers, manicured landscapes, and traditional features that reflect the elegance of Japanese garden design. Literature enthusiasts can also visit the Matsumoto Seicho Memorial Museum, which showcases the life and influential works of the esteemed Japanese novelist. For those wishing to enjoy the full experience, a combined pass covering Kokura Castle, the garden, and the memorial museum is available for 700 yen per person (self-funded). Please note that depending on capacity or weather conditions, some attractions may need to be skipped to ensure a smooth and comfortable visit.
• Miyajidake Shrine - At Miyajidake Shrine in Fukutsu City, visitors will enter a sacred site with a history spanning approximately 1,700 years. Known as the head shrine of all Miyajidake Shrines across Japan, it enshrines Empress Jingu as its main deity, drawing countless visitors seeking blessings for prosperity and good fortune. The shrine is also renowned for its enormous sacred objects, including a giant shimenawa (straw rope), drum, and bell, each said to be the largest in Japan. Guests can explore the expansive grounds, admire the impressive architecture, and enjoy the breathtaking view along the “Path of Light,” a perfectly aligned approach from the shrine’s main hall that stretches straight to the Genkai Sea, especially stunning at sunset.
