Kitakyushu-shiKokura Castle
Kokura Castle, a famous castle built in the 7th year of the Keicho era, was called ``Karazukuri'' at the time, and was the only and rare castle in Japan. Inside the castle, there is plenty to see, including an impressive theater that introduces the history of Kokura Castle, introductions to the Hosokawa clan and Ogasawara clan who were the lords of the Kokura domain, introductions to Miyamoto Musashi and Kojiro Sasaki, and an observation zone with a 360-degree view of Kokura town. It is also famous for its approximately 300 cherry blossom trees in the spring and the beautiful autumn leaves of the zelkova and ginkgo trees in the fall.

Mt. Sarakura
The grand panorama that can be viewed from Mt. Sarakura (altitude 622m), one of Kitakyushu's most famous mountains, is of an overwhelming scale.
It takes about 10 minutes to take a cable car and then a slope car to reach the observation deck at the top of the mountain, from where you can see the entire Kitakyushu-shi a city of one million people where mountains, sea, and city are integrated.

Kitakyushu-shiTomigahana (Myokenzaki Lighthouse)
Tomigahana, which boasts one of the best views on the Wakamatsu north coast, is home to the Myokensaki Lighthouse, and the view from the cliff where the lighthouse stands overlooks the color of the sea, the islands in the ocean, and the striped rock formations are all worth seeing. There is also Misaki Shrine nearby, which is said to be the god of matchmaking and marital harmony.

Kitakyushu-shiWakato Bridge
A 627m long suspension bridge that connects Wakamatsu Ward and Tobata Ward. The red structure spanning Dokai Bay is a symbol of both Wakamatsu and Tobata wards.
When it opened in 1962, it was the longest suspension bridge in the East and was said to be the pioneer of Japan's long suspension bridges.
This historic bridge is designated as a national important cultural property in 2022 and is celebrating its 60th anniversary.
At the base of the Wakamatsu side, there are retro buildings such as the Kitakyushu Former Furukawa Mining Wakamatsu Building and the Ueno Building, making it a bustling tourist spot.
We also recommend the “Wakato Ferry” which connects Wakamatsu and Tobata for 100 yen per 3 minutes! How about taking a short cruise to the Wakamatsu south coast on a nostalgic ferry?
