Fukuoka Tower

Fukuoka Tower has three main floors that you can enjoy. The highest floor is 123 meters up and gives you amazing 360-degree views of Fukuoka City, Hakata Bay, and the mountains in Fukuoka Prefecture.

One floor has a café where you can relax, and another has fun spots like a "Lovers’ Sanctuary." Each level offers something special and makes the tower a great stop on your Fukuoka trip.

Fukuoka Tower is the tallest building in Fukuoka and the tallest seaside tower in Japan. It's on the western edge of the city, right by the coast. The tower is famous for its modern design and amazing views of Fukuoka City and Hakata Bay. It’s one of the most well-known landmarks in the city.

Fukuoka City is famous for its amazing food, especially Hakata ramen and yatai (street food stalls). It's known for its fun mix of old and new, with places like Kushida Shrine, Ohori Park, and modern spots like Canal City Hakata.

Its location on northern Kyushu makes it an important harbor city and a gateway to the Asian mainland. People love Fukuoka for its rich Japanese culture, friendly vibe, and easy access to natural and historical landmarks.

The best time to visit Fukuoka Tower is in the late afternoon, so you can catch the sunset and stay to see the city light up at night. Spring, especially during cherry blossom season (late March to early April), is a great time for beautiful views of pink blooms. Autumn (September to November) is also perfect, with cool weather and colorful fall leaves across Fukuoka City and Hakata Bay.

From Tenjin Subway Station, take Nishitetsu Bus W1 or 302 from Bus Stop 1A in front of Tenjin Bus Center. You can also take the Fukuoka City Subway to Nishijin Station and walk or catch a bus from there.
