Ohori Park
Ohori Park is an oasis in Fukuoka City, utilizing the outer moat of Fukuoka Castle, covering an expansive area of approximately 40 hectares. It can be accessed in just 4 minutes from Tenjin station, which is only two stations away. Within the park, there are many cultural facilities such as the Fukuoka City Museum of Art and the Noh Theatre, as well as beautiful Japanese gardens. Opened in 1929, it is loved by both locals and tourists for its history and rich nature.
A walking path of about 2 km surrounds the pond, offering opportunities for jogging, cycling, and birdwatching. At the center island, there is a vermilion floating hall, which serves as a symbol of the park. At night, it is illuminated, creating a magical atmosphere. There are also cafés and restaurants nearby, making it a great place for shopping and dining.
Designed to resemble West Lake in Hangzhou, Ohori Park is filled with seasonal flowers and greenery, and migratory birds can also be spotted. The park features three islands: Yanagijima, Matsushima, and Ayamejima, all connected by bridges. As a natural paradise within the city, the park is cherished by many for its culture, history, and recreational opportunities.
