Trip to Kumamoto in Japan
Kumamoto City, situated roughly in the center of Kumamoto Prefecture, is the government and economic center of the prefecture. It has a population of over 730,000 and holds the largest-scale shopping arcade in western Japan. With a length of over 1 kilometer, the arcade is located at the foot of Kumamoto Castle in the city center. In the shopping arcade, there is a wide variety of shops, such as department stores, electronic shops, drugstores, and boutiques. There are also a variety of restaurants and bars where tourists can enjoy local delicacies.
The area is also rich in history, with sites such as Kumamoto Castle, built over 400 years ago and considered one of the three most magnificent castles in Japan. On top of everything else, Kumamoto is blessed with abundant hot springs.
As you can see, Kumamoto is filled with invaluable historical heritage, unique culture, magnificent nature, and refreshing hot springs, as well as outstanding food.
The city is only a 40min Shinkansen Bullet Train ride away from Fukuoka and you can spend there the whole day experiencing various things.
Nita and Sam from Feel Fukuoka will show you in this video some of the things you can do in Kumamoto City.

I GOT MY LICENSE! LET'S GO TO ITOSHIMA! 車の免許証ゲット！初ドライブは糸島！!
So, going back to the driver's exam, I really was nervous. I really did not think I would pass, and I left the entire week open so I could come back and take the test as many times as I needed to.
... But miraculously I passed!? On my first try! I couldn't believe it. I wish I was ready for my license photo, I would have made my hair a bit nicer.
Special thanks to for helping me make this series, and also for helping me get my full license in Japan, in just one month, with no prior driving experience whatsoever!
Some places we visited in this video:

Travel: Japan Kyushu Day 1 - Fukuoka，Beppu
We travel with AirAsia X to Capital of Kyushu - Fukuoka
First day reached Fukuoka airport around 9am. We didn't expect the ticket to yufuin to be fully booked. So we decided to just take a train (included in JR pass) to Beppu instead and visited hells.
On the evening back from beppu to hakata station, we had our famous hakata tonkotsu ramen inside the station. Then we checked in to our hotel after the dinner and came out to visit Grand Canal City.
After enjoyed a wonderful water show, we decided to have a walk at Yatai nearby the mall and choose to sit down and eat some supper at one of the stalls

Life in Japan - Fukuoka Part 4
Fukuoka Part 4. Last one for Shikanoshima Island. So maybe next one with be Fukuoka 2 Part 1? I dunno, but it will be different sites for sure. Can't say enough about how cool this place is. Feels like a paradise you only see in movies lol. The contrast from my hometown to here is night and day. Both have their ups and downs I'm sure, but we all eventually want what we don't have. I want to live here! Really want to go back.
[FUKUOKA] Experience more Japan | JNTO
No matter how many times you visit, there’s more to Japan than you have ever imagined.
Travel with us through Western Japan as we explore its hidden delights, rich history, culture and breathtaking natural beauty.
■TripNotes
Spot 1: Itoshima Peninsula
Itoshima Peninsula is 1 hour away from the center of Fukuoka. On these beautiful beaches you can enjoy barbecue and surfing. Amongst them, Sakurai Futamigaura is particularly known for its beautiful sunset.
If you go inland, you can go trekking into 1000 meters high mountains and witness stunning waterfalls. If you visit in the winter, don't forget to try the famous oysters at the Oyster House (Kakigoya).
Spot 2: Hakata stalls
Speaking of gourmet, look no further than Fukuoka's street food. At night the town lights up with numerous food stalls frequented by both tourists and locals.
The food stalls don't just serve delicious food, but also create an ambiance to help interact with other people who have gathered. They are open from 6 pm until dawn where you can have Ramen, Yakitori, and other local dishes of Fukuoka along with alcoholic beverages and you can also spend time with the local people.
Spot 3 : Mojiko Retro
Mojiko, which prospered from coal export in the 19th century, still has many western style buildings that were popular at the time. It's a popular spot with over 2 million tourists visiting each year, and has retro buildings that are still being used as libraries, cafés and restaurants.
The town lights up at night and you can take an evening stroll while enjoying the sights of Mojiko port and the Kanmon Straits.
Food: Hakata Ramen
Fukuoka boasts of its Hakata Ramen. What makes this Ramen special is its thick pork bone soup stock. The pork bone is boiled at a high temperature for quite a long time so that the gelatin from the bone melts, making the soup thicker.
Taste the deliciousness of the thick pork soup mixed with Hakata style superfine noodles.
FUKUOKA (Japan) in One Day #1 (of 2): City Tour by Car
After a very long Pacific Ocean crossing from Brazil to Japan on the Ocean Dream cruise ship that Pullmantur was delivering to Peace Boat at the Hakata port, we finally have a few hours to enjoy the city of Fukuoka!
Unfortunately just a few hours is not enough but we still visited the Kushida Shrine, a very beautiful Buddhist temple, and the Canal City shopping centre, that has a nice fountain show, all after a quick city tour by car.
On the way back from Japan to Brazil, I also had the change to do a stopover in Hong-Kong, so please subscribe to watch the next ONE DAY IN... series, which will be in Hong-Kong!
More about Fukuoka:
Fukuoka (福岡市 Fukuoka-shi) is the capital city of Fukuoka Prefecture and is situated on the northern shore of the island of Kyushu in Japan.
Ranked as the 14th of the world's most livable cities in the magazine Monocle in 2010, Fukuoka was praised for its green spaces in a metropolitan setting. It is the most populous city in Kyushu, followed by Kitakyushu. It is the largest city and metropolitan area west of Keihanshin. The city was designated on April 1, 1972 by government ordinance. Greater Fukuoka (福岡都市圏), with 2.5 million people (2005 census), is part of the heavily industrialized Fukuoka-Kitakyushu zone, as well as Northern Kyushu.
As of June 2011, Fukuoka is Japan's 7th largest city, having passed the population of Kyoto, and the first time a city west of the Kinki region has a larger population since Kyoto was established in the 7th century. However, in ancient times, the area near Fukuoka was thought to be perhaps even more influential than the Yamato region.

Japan Diary: Fukuoka (Canal City, Ohori Park and The One Piece Water Spectacle)
Our last destination was Fukuoka.
Fukuoka was very different in comparison to the other places we had visited in Japan. It had a different vibe and was a lot more spread out.
We stayed in the city for 3 days and had a great time.
The water shows at Canal City are well worth seeing. I am a big One Piece fan, and to see the 'One Piece Water Spectacle' was an added bonus.
The city comes alive at night, especially the very strange (red light) area of Nakasu...
