4K 博多駅 新幹線 Hakata Station Fukuoka Kyushu JAPAN
Hakata Station 博多駅 is a major railway station in Hakata-ku, Fukuoka, Japan. It is the largest and busiest station in Kyushu, and is a gateway to other cities in Kyushu for travellers from Honshu. The Shinkansen from Osaka and Tokyo ends at this station.
The station was rebuilt in 2011. The main building was torn down and a new, larger station building—as well as office buildings and new platforms—was constructed. The station reconstruction project was initiated specifically for the Kyushu Shinkansen extension from Hakata to Kagoshima-Chūō Station.

Kyushu Travel Tips: 8 Things to Know Before You Go To Kyushu Japan
Things YOU need to know before you visit the Kyushu region in Japan. First, Kyushu is a paradise for travelers looking to get off the beaten track and see the unseen Japan. The lush green countryside is home to active volcanoes, waterfalls, natural hot springs, and semi-tropical coastlines. Kyushu is the Southwestern most island with a population of 13 Million. Kyushu literally means Nine Provinces, although it’s only got 7 prefectures now. Kyushu's strategic position near South Korea and China have allowed it to act as a focal point of cultural, religious, and artistic exchanges since the ancient Japanese world. Fukuoka is closer to Seoul than Tokyo. Lot’s of International visitors. Quite mountainous, Japan’s most active Volcano (Mt. Aso)
2. Hot Springs
appropriately Kyushu is called Land of Fire.
Kyushu has the largest number of hot spring sources and the largest amount of discharge in Japan.
sand-steam baths, where you are buried in warm sand.
Lots of good Onsens in a small region. You can Onsen hop to a bunch of different
Beppu
Yufuin
Kurokawa Onsen (Awesome! -- Yamamizuki Best outdoor Onsen)
3. Getting to Kyushu
Fukuoka is the main transport hub.
Flights to other parts of Kyushu may be inconvienent
If you are coming Tokyo or further, Take a flight
If you are coming from Osaka Take a Bullet Train
A trip by train all the way from Tokyo takes 5:40 by Nozomi and costs ¥22,000
South Korea by Ferry to Busan
4. Transportation in Kyushu
It may seem small on the map, but is really quite big
If you are mostly in the cities, trains and bus.
Shinkansen runs north & south. East / West travel is slow.
Hakata to Kagoshima in the south buy Shinkansen takes about 1.5 hours
Kyushu Rail Pass: one for the Northern Kyushu Area,, and the full pass which covers the entire island.
Northern Kyushu Area 3-day pass ￥8,500 5-day pass ￥10,000
All Kyushu Area 3-day pass ￥15,000 5-day pass ￥18,000
Elsewhere, you’ll need a car.

Fall, before Typhoons
For a festival
Japan’s burning man
Although Kyushu is usually warm and comfortable throughout the year, as we found out, it can get quite a bit of snow in the Mt. Aso region and the region can be quite cold in the winter
6. Language
Kyushu is home to dialects of Japanese that are almost incomprehensible to speakers of standard Japanese -so much so that it was utilised during World War 2 for preventing interception by the Allies of Japanese communications. Even native speakers of Japanese from Honshu often have problems understanding the conversations of locals. However, all people are able to speak standard Japanese and especially in the cities younger people may also have a limited command of English.
7. What to buy
porcelain products (In Arita)
Lot of international visitors means lots of designer stores
Kumamon souvenirs
Food! Seriously -- most “souvenir” stores are just food
8. Food
Hakata Ramen
White Tonkotsu Soup, thin noodles
“Instant” Ramen for later.
Gyoza
Generally bite sized
Mentaiko - Spice Seasons Cod Roe
Castella Cake - Nagasaki
Milk from Aso
Strawberries - super sweet
Beef -- it’s what’s for dinner
With 4.2 restaurants for every 1,000 people, Fukuoka is second only to Tokyo for the highest concentration of restaurants in Japan. In fact, in those terms it beats Singapore, New York, Hong Kong and most other major cities in the world. TripAdvisor currently lists 9,398 restaurants in Fukuoka — which means that if you dined at a different one every day, it would take you around 25 years to try them all.

Fukuoka Travel Tips: 6 Things to Know Before You Go to Fukuoka
Things YOU need to know before you travel to Fukuoka Japan. Fukuoka is nearly equidistant to Tokyo, Shanghai and Seoul, it sits on the northern tip of Kyushu, the southernmost of Japan’s four main islands. Fukuoka has a laid-back atmosphere, the friendly people, the relaxed pace of a city large enough, with about 1.4 million people, to have its own attractions but not so large as to be overwhelming. Compared with navigating Tokyo’s busy subway system or hurrying to visit one last shrine in Kyoto before closing time, taking in the sights in Fukuoka actually feels like a vacation
Today's Fukuoka is the product of the fusion of two cities in the year 1889, when the port city of Hakata and the former castle town of Fukuoka were united into one city called Fukuoka. Hakata remains the name of one of Fukuoka's central districts and of the main railway station.
5 - Getting to Fukuoka
Plane - Airport is really close to the city -- 5 minutes on the Subway from the domestic terminal. But 15 minutes by Bus from the International Terminal.
Shinkansen -- 2.5 hours from Osaka
Drive
3- Transportation in Fukuoka
Fukuoka sells unlimited day passes for tourists, making sightseeing easier and affordable. The subway is easy to use, with two main station transfer hubs (for JR trains) and a route to the Fukuoka International Airport. You can buy a single fare (600 yen) or get an unlimited day pass. The station master booth near the turnstile can answer any questions you have.
Fukuoka Tourist Day Passes grants access to each/all the public transportation: 800 yen (adults) affords a pass on Nishitetsu Bus, Showa Bus, JR Train and the Subway, while 1,300 yen gets you an extra usage of the Nishitetsu Train (* takes you out to the Dazaifu Temple Area). I chose the 800 yen pass and was very pleased. Show your passes at events and attractions and you may get a special discount.
4 - Food:
For ramen, most people say Fukuoka is the best,” he said. Two of Japan’s most famous ramen chains, Ichiran and Ippudo, hail from the city. Ramen Stadium on the 5th floor of Canal City. But the one can’t-miss dining experience in Fukuoka is yatai. Yatai are tiny street food carts that are constructed (and deconstructed) nightly. Plastic curtains typically enclose a bare-bones kitchen and minuscule counter around which no more than a dozen or so diners can cram. Many yatai serve basic fare like grilled things-on-sticks or ramen; some supplement counter seating with folding tables and chairs.
Today, there are about 150 operating yatai in Fukuoka, with most clustered along main roads, parks and the riverfront. Because of a law that bans the opening of new yatai, those numbers are dwindling
5 - Shopping:
Canal City is a major shopping complex at 2.5 million square feet, including about 250 shops, restaurants, cafes, cinemas, game center, theater, etc. It even has a canal flowing inside (which explains its name), and a large fountain that has a water show every 30 minutes.
Because the mall is so large, it may take you a whole day to discover everything. If you come to Canal City before May 18th, you can also enjoy the 3D projection mapping show with the popular anime “One Piece” theme, which is quite epic you won’t want to miss it.
By the train station lots of shopping too!!
6- Shrines:
Dazaifu Tenmangu and Kushida Shrine.
Dazaifu Tenmangu is located in Dazaifu city, and it is one of the main shrines in Japan dedicated to Tenjin- the “God” of literature and scholarship. The shrine is very large and includes several structures, so it would take you around 1 hour to visit all the places.
On the contrary, Kushida shrine is located right in the center of Hakata, and since it is a village shrine, it is much smaller than Dazaifu, and this spot will only take you 20 minutes to visit. As the oldest shrine in Fukuoka city, it attracts lots of foreign tourists so you can get the information sheet and even the omikuji (paper fortunes) in English.

7 Days Kyushu Japan Travel Vlog - The Land of Snow and Fire!
7 Days in Kyushu! A travel vlog of our 7-day itinerary in Kyushu Japan. More detailed videos on Kyushu in my Kyushu playlist (link below). Our trip began in Fukuoka. Fukuoka is Kyushu's largest city with a population of 1.5 Million. Fukuoka is the gateway city to Kyushu. Fukuoka has the biggest airport, and train links to the Shinkansen to the rest of Japan. Most trips to Kyushu begin and end in Fukuoka. We spent 2 days in Fukuoka, visited the Dazaifu Temple where we were caught by a crew from a Japanese Morning Television show. We ate lots of Hakata ramen in Fukuoka, and pudding! Fukuoka also has lots of shopping in the Hakata JR Station, and the Tenjin neighborhood. We went on a boat tour in Yanagawa, ate some eel, and saw the most amazing fire festival performance!
After Fukuoka we rented a car and drove to Nagasaki where we toured Nakasaki's Chinatown, saw the famous spectacles bridge, learned about the former Dutch trading post, and ate delicious pork belly buns. We spent a night in Nagasaki.
We then drove to the Mt. Aso region and stayed at a 100 year old traditional Japanese Ryokan hotel (Sozankyo). It started to snow on this day, which made for fun driving! This began our 3 night Onsen Hotel spree!
The next night we stayed at the Yamakizuki Hotel in Kurokawa Onsen Town which has the most amazing outdoor hot spring bath that we have ever been in!
Our final night was spent in Yufuin another small (less than 20 room) Onsen hotel. This hotel, the Yufuin Gettouan had a private onsen bath attached to our room. Our final day we spent exploring Yufuin town before taking the Shinkansen to Osaka.
