Kitakyushu, Japan - Mojikō Station (2019)
Mojikō Station (門司港駅 Mojikō-eki) is a railway station on the Kagoshima Main Line in Moji-ku, Kitakyushu, Japan, operated by the Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu).
The station opened on 1 April 1891. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.
From 29 September 2012, the 1914-vintage station building was temporarily closed for major renovations. It is scheduled to reopen in March 2018.
Mojikō Station is the gateway to various tourist attractions and old buildings which have been preserved in the nearby streets under the name Mojikō Retro.
Kitakyushu (Japanese: 北九州市 Hepburn: Kitakyūshū-shi, lit. North Kyushu City) is one of two designated cities in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, together with Fukuoka, with a population of just under 1 million people.
Kitakyushu, Japan - Kokura Station (2019)
Kokura Station (小倉駅 Kokura-eki) in Kokura Kita ward is the main railway station in Kitakyushu, Japan. It is part of the JR Kyushu network and the Sanyo Shinkansen stops here. It is the second largest station in Kyushu with 120,000 users daily. In the late 1990s, the Kokura station area was expanded and remodelled.

Mojiko (Moji Port) 門司港 北九州
Mojiko - Moji Port - is a port in the city of Kitakyushu, in Fukuoka prefecture, and is strategically located at the narrowest point of the Kanmon Straits that separate Kyushu - the island it is on - from the main island of Honshu. Mojiko developed into a major international and domestic port at the end of the 19th century.
Moji was one of five towns and cities that merged in 1963 to become Kitakyushu-shi (Kitakyushu city). Besides Moji, the other merged towns were Kokura, Tobata, Yahata with its main attraction of Space World, and Wakamatsu.
Since the opening of Mojiko as a modern, new port, the area around old Mojiko port has been turned into a tourist attraction under the slogan Mojiko Retro.
Mojiko is small enough to be explored on foot, or bicycles can be rented near the inner harbor.
The terminus of the first railway line built in Kyushu, Mojiko Station is the most likely place of arrival for visitors. Built-in 1914 it is one of the few remaining large wooden stations in Japan and was the first station to be listed as a National Cultural Property.
Mojiko Station is built in a Neo-Renaissance style and is claimed to be based on the old Termini Station in Rome, but that seems unlikely. Until 2018 the station is undergoing major renovations and will likely be shrouded in scaffolding.

Mojiko (or Moji Port) is a well-preserved historical port town and is the closest town in Kyushu in proximity to the main Honshu island of Japan, just separated by the Kanmon Straits. What's cool is the Kanmon Pedestrian Tunnel that connects Kyushu and Honshu. It's a 780m undersea tunnel and in the middle you will find the prefectural borders separating Fukuoka (Kyushu) and Yamaguchi (Honshu) prefectures, and is a rare example of a border not found on land!

Cherry Blossom Viewing at Kiyotaki Park in Mojiko Kitakyushu Japan 2019
Cherry Blossom Viewing at Kiyotaki Park in Mojiko Kitakyushu Japan 2019
So I am here in Kitakyushu this year to view the cherry blossoms. So let's go find them.
I walked from Mojiko Station to Kiyotaki Park, one of Kitakyushu's famous cherry blossom spots, to see if I could recreate the view from a picture that I saw online. Went up a crazy hill, met some people along the way, and actually saw something that I was not supposed to until the following week. I love Kitakyushu.

福岡行！漫遊門司海港，感受日本大正浪漫美態
#福岡旅行 #大正浪漫 #松村香織
不想錯過可追蹤Hongkong Walker頻道：
大家有聽過「大正浪漫」這個詞語嗎？大正是日本1912～1926年的年號，當時日本深受歐洲19世紀的浪漫主義風潮，無論在建築、藝術、文學都帶有濃厚獨特的美學特徵，而這種思潮跟文化影響就叫作大正浪漫，最近在日本超紅的動漫作品《鬼滅之刃》就正是以大正時代為背景，於日本掀起一陣大正風！想真切感受「大正浪漫」的文化，就必定要去福岡縣北九州市的門司港口！
大正時代雖然只有短短10多年，卻是門司港最繁榮興盛的年代，當地的「門司港Retro地區」，建築和街道都保留濃厚的懷舊大正風，氣氛復古，好像大正時代從沒在門司港褪去一樣。最特別是當地被列入為國家重要文化財產的JR車站「九州門司港站」，這個以木造建成的車站於明治時代建成、大正時代改建，經過修復後，於2019年3月10日再次重新以典雅復古的姿態開幕，並讓一般市民使用！
除此以外，門司港的藍翼門司吊橋、門司港懷舊區、闗門海峽行人海底隧道，都是相當適合散步漫遊！想真正感受大正時代的日本，就跟日本女藝人松村香織去門司港來一轉浪漫之旅啦~
