Half Day in Fukuoka: Hakata walk

We had just half a day in Fukuoka, starting from Hakata Station — such an easy base to explore on foot. 🏯 Stop 1: Tochoji Temple First stop: Tochoji Temple — the five-story red pagoda is absolutely stunning. A peaceful, photogenic place to begin the walk. The temple grounds felt calm, a lovely break from the city buzz. 🏘️ Stop 2: Hakata Old Town Area Next, we explored the Hakata Old Town area nearby — loved walking through old streets and quiet corners. You can still feel the atmosphere of Fukuoka’s past here — very charming and different from the modern side of the city. 🏮 Stop 3 (Evening): Canal City Hakata We spent the evening at Canal City Hakata — perfect way to end the day! The fountain show at night was such a highlight — colorful, lively, and fun. Great spot to relax after walking, with lots of food options and shops too. #fukuokatrip #hakatastation #tochojitemple #hakataoldtown #canalcityhakata #fukuokaeveningshow #fukuokahalfdaytrip #japantravel #fukuokavibes #explorejapan #fukuokawalkingtour #travelinjapan
