Kokura Castle & Yasaka Shrine in Kitakyushu, Japan

Visited Kokura Castle, originally built in 1617 and reconstructed in 1959, on March 31, 2025. Conveniently located near JR Nishi-Kokura Station, you can also visit Yasaka Shrine, also known as Gion Shrine, a sacred place for love prayers. Every year on the third weekend of July, the grand Kokura Gion Taiko Festival is held, one of the three major Gion festivals in Fukuoka.
