What to expect

Kokura Castle was built in 1602 at the beginning of the Edo Period. The castle was destroyed by fire in 1866, and the current castle tower is a ferroconcrete reconstruction from 1959. Kokura Castle grounds are now known as Katsuyama Park and are a popular cherry blossom spot that is usually in bloom around early April. Mojiko's prosperity as a transport hub attracted many Western-style buildings housing shipping companies and trading firms around it. The Mojiko Retro district is a restored reproduction of the district around the port in olden times. In this district, various buildings have been preserved and are open to visitors, including the iconic Mojiko Station, the former Moji Mitsui Club, where Einstein stayed, and the former Kyushu Railway Headquarters (currently Kyushu Railway History Museum). You can immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Japan in the late 19th to early 20th centuries here. Let's stroll around Kokura Castle and Mojiko Retro wearing Kimono, and take some amazing photos
