  • Miyajidake Shrine
    Miyajidake Shrine is a significant Shinto shrine located in Fukutsu City, Fukuoka Prefecture. The shrine has been revered for centuries as a place where great wishes come true, believed to bring good fortune to overcome all odds and attracts over 2 million visitors annually. Twice a year, around February 20th and October 20th, the setting sun aligns perfectly with the shrine's approach, creating a golden pathway to the sea. From the stone staircase (otokozaka), visitors can enjoy a spectacular view of the straight approach extending to the sea.
  • Fukuma Beach
    At low tide, especially during spring tides, the sandy beach transforms into a mirror-like surface, reflecting the sky above. This creates a mesmerizing visual effect where the sky and land seem to merge, producing breathtaking photo opportunities. Even amateur photographers can capture stunning images with smartphones. The reflections create unique opportunities for creative shots, especially during sunset when the sky takes on vibrant colors.

    Totoro's Forest, officially known as part of the Genkai Quasi-National Park, is a charming natural attraction that has gained popularity due to its resemblance to the magical setting in the famous Japanese anime.
