2025 Kurume Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#FukuokaTravel Kora Taisha Shrine is about a 20-minute drive from the center of Kurume City. It has been called "the mountain where gods live" since ancient times. It is located halfway up Mount Kora and has a long history of more than 1,600 years! This place is not only believed to be a place of deity that protects life and wards off evil spirits and longevity, but also because it is the birthplace of Kagura Kagura, it is regarded as the "god of entertainment", and local entertainers often come here to visit! Shrine tour suggestions: The bird's-eye view is definitely one of the must-see spots when visiting the shrine! You can climb up the steps and stand on a high place to enjoy the beautiful scenery! Don’t forget to visit the “Love Blooms and Bears Observation Deck” inside the shrine. From there you can overlook the entire city of Kurume. It is said that if you can see the statue of Kannon, the Savior Mother, on Mt. Narita, your relationship will be smooth! Therefore, this place has become a particularly effective holy place for praying for marriage! I also recommend you to come at sunset. The orange sunset is super gentle. The lights on both sides of the shrine will light up at night, which is very beautiful. You can enjoy the charming night view of the city from the observation deck!

Kyushu has abundant rain and warm temperatures. Naturally, there are many resorts where you can enjoy a large number of flowers. 🤩 There is a Senkoji Temple in Kurume City, Kitakyushu. Although it is a long way away, and if you cannot drive there, you will have to transfer several times to get there. However, the temple is covered with 7,000 hydrangea flowers, and with the scarcity of tourists, even the Japanese have disappeared. , a hidden spot that’s perfect for watching and taking photos☺️ This trip brought the cute Northeastern penguins Shimei, Miyazaki three dogs, Apple Monkey, and Sakura bird. The new Kumamon friends will not appear until later in the trip 😂 It is indeed inconvenient to enjoy the flowers in the heavy rain, but it is the first time in my life. Seeing such a spectacular sea of ​​flowers, I am glad that they bloom in late June😘You can check the blooming status of the flowers on the website in advance😎 Kurume City is located between Fukuoka City and Kumamoto City.

✨No.4 Tenjin Festival Fireworks (Osaka) The Tenjin Festival lasts for about a month from late June to July 25th every year. When the festival comes to its final day, offering fireworks becomes a symbol of the end of the festival💫. At that time, more than 100 festival boats 🚢 will sail on the Okawa River in Osaka, and about 3,000 fireworks will light up the entire night sky 💡. The dazzling fireworks and the boats on the river complement each other. This is both a festival of fire and a festival of water. There is another highlight of the Tenjin Festival fireworks, which is Japan's unique plum blossom-shaped fireworks "Red Plum" 🌺. Don’t miss the opportunity to admire the beautiful blooming of red plum blossoms in the night sky when you visit the site. ⌚️Time: Sunset to around 21:00 📍Location: Kita-ku, Osaka City / Kawasaki Park, Sakuranomiya Park ✨No.5 Naniwa Yodogawa Fireworks Festival (Osaka) Different from the origins of many fireworks festivals, the predecessor of the Naniwa Fireworks Festival originated from a volunteer activity by local citizens in 1989🙋🏻‍♀️. The fireworks on site will rise into the sky accompanied by music, as if they are dancing, which is also a major attraction. ⌚️Time: 19:30-20:30 📍Location: Yodogawa-ku, Osaka City/Shin-Midosuji Yodosuji Bridge, along the Yodogawa River ✨No.6 Katsushika Summer Fireworks Festival (Tokyo) The Katsushika City Tourism Association hosts the Summer Fireworks Festival, which is held in late July every year. It is a fireworks festival with a Tokyo downtown style. Because the 👀 viewing seats are very close to the fireworks launch area, the shocking feeling when watching it live is also unique. About 13,000 fireworks are launched every year👈, it is a fireworks festival in the Tokyo area that you cannot miss! ⌚️Time: 19:20-20:30 📍Address: Shibamata Baseball Stadium, Katsushika-ku, Tokyo, Edogawa Riverbank ✨No.7 Chikugo River Fireworks Festival (Fukuoka) The Chikugo River Fireworks Festival has a long history. In 1650, in order to celebrate the completion of the Suitengu Shrine, local people set off fireworks to celebrate. Since then, at the end of the Water Festival hosted by Suitengu every year, a fireworks display will be held, which has a history of more than 350 years. Today, as the leading fireworks festival in western Japan, there are two special venues for viewing fireworks, namely Kyomachi Venue and Sasayama Venue. Seeing the giant fireworks rising into the sky and reflected on the surface of the Chikugo River in the midsummer night sky is a 📷check-in activity not to be missed in Fukuoka. ⌚️Time: 19:40-20:10

𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐩*⋆✈Fukuoka𓂃 𓈒𓏸Kurume Nikka One of the places I definitely wanted to go to when I went to Fukuoka A Japanese sweets shop that only opened last July and is only open two days a week The sweets, the interior and tableware, the service, everything is just amazing, I can't put it into words. lol Run by a married couple, this shop was renovated from the wife's parents' Japanese house. When you enter the store, a garden spreads out in front of you, like a painting in a picture frame. The design of the large window was inspired by Monet at the Chichu Art Museum in Naoshima 🍃The magnificent pine tree outside the window is like a painting itself. The kohagi are handmade one by one after an order is placed, and include cute ohagi with flower-dyed red bean paste and nut dumplings (similar to bliss balls). You can enjoy various designs for each season. All are free of chemical seasonings and additives, and are gluten-free and vegan, so there's no guilt involved◎ When you order a drink for eat-in, you can choose your favorite dish from the ones on display in the store. The interior of the store and most of the tableware used are apparently selected by the husband or used by the wife at her parents' home. Although the shapes, eras, and tastes are different, everything is in harmony and it was a comfortable space 🫧𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄𓐄𓊆𝑇𝑖𝑚𝑒𓊇From Tabelog 10:00-16:00 Closed: Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Sundays 𓊆𝐴𝑐𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑠𓊇 From Tabelog 913-1 Yamakawa-cho, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture 977m from Mii Station 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 #FukuokaTourism #WinterTrip #FukuokaTrip #FukuokaCafe #FukuokaGourmet #KyotoWagashi #Kurume #KurumeCafe
