TRAVEL GUIDE

Fukuoka

Hakata food stalls, Dazaifu shrines and Yanagawa canals

Start in Fukuoka City for Hakata ramen and the evening atmosphere of its yatai food stalls. A visit to Dazaifu Tenmangu brings a different side of the prefecture into focus, while the waterways of Yanagawa offer a slower-paced outing farther south. Choose a city break or set aside extra time for these excursions, checking the latest opening and transport details before you go.
