Fukuoka Castle Ruins

4.5
4.5/5
132 reviews

Fukuoka Castle Ruins are located west of the Naka River and east of Ohori Park. This is a nationally designated historic site, also known by the names "Fukuoka Castle Ruins" and "Stone Castle." Kuroda Nagamasa was granted the 520,000-koku fief of Chikuzen for his distinguished military service at the Battle of Sekigahara. Starting in 1600, he spent 7 years building this castle. The entire structure is a large-scale hirayamajiro (flatland-mountain castle). Due to wars and various destructive factors, only the Otemon Gate, Den Shiomi-Yagura Turret, the Nagayamamon Gate of Mori Taibei's residence, the Honmaru (main bailey), Ninomaru (second bailey), and Sannomaru (third bailey) stone walls remain. Additionally, the castle grounds house an athletics stadium, the Heiwadai Baseball Stadium, and the Heiwadai Athletic Stadium, which is famous as the starting point for the Fukuoka International Marathon. It is said that the castle was never built with a main keep (tenshukaku), but it was famous for having three keep foundations—large, medium, and small—and 47 watchtowers. The moat contains sedge, a natural wild vegetation monument designated by Fukuoka Prefecture, and the Man'yo Tanka Inscription stands within the castle grounds. Recently, ruins of the Korokan Ruins Museum (Korokan Ruins Museum), a guesthouse from theDazaifu Tenmangu Shrineera, were discovered near the Heiwadai Baseball Stadium. Today, the site, which includes remnants such as the main gate, is open to the public as Maizuru Park.

Compared to Koshien, it was much less crowded, and the activities weren't exactly the same. The most popular activities that day were sushi and pizza making, while the traditionally popular firefighter activity was quite quiet. The staff were as enthusiastic as ever, and while the parents were a bit bored, the kids had a blast. Each workshop ended with a real product.

The place never sleeps. If you want a very active night life in Fukuoka, Nakasu is one of the must visit places. You have it all the yatai - Nakasu food stall street, occasional night markets, night clubs and izakayas.

Of the castle ruins, nothing remains except the stone foundation. The feudal lord was pragmatic, building only three castle towers: large, medium, and small. Tamon Turret is overgrown with weeds; the other turrets have only their foundation stones left, while others are merely imaginary.

I stopped by Hakozaki Shrine on New Year's Day, January 2nd. There was a New Year's event, so I had fun looking around. I thought it was fun because the signboard that said "Enemy Surrender" was hanging right there. It was easy to get to, as it was about a 5-minute walk from the subway station. However, there's nothing else to see around here besides this shrine, so the downside is that you have to come here to see the New Year.

Highly recommend to see when in Fukuoka, however, it is not the best place to go in hot summer. If takes around 35 min from Hakata station. Overall, visiting a place won’t take a lot of your time.
