[2025 Yanagawa Attraction] Travel Guide for 城門観光川下りのりば （柳川観光遊船） (Updated May)

A super popular one-day tour combination in the suburbs of Fukuoka: "Yanagawa Water Village" + "Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine" 🛶⛩️ We bought a sightseeing package this time, it only cost 3340 yen~ You can travel back and forth from Fukuoka Tenjin Station to Yanagawa/Dazaifu It also includes transportation between Yanagawa and Dazaifu, which is very cost-effective and convenient~💡 ☀️【Morning】Yanagawa｜Sightseeing by boat + Eel rice Take a sightseeing package from Tenjin and visit Yanagawa first~ The most famous thing here is to take a boat tour on the river. After getting off the train, you can take a bus or shuttle bus to the ferry destination. You need to queue up to take the boat. We waited for about 30 minutes that day. Pointy sun hats are available on site for you to pick up, very unique! Just put it back after getting off the boat, very considerate~ We went there in April and the weather was not hot, so the boat ride was super comfortable! The boat slowly moved forward, passing through the low ancient bridge, with old houses and green shades on both sides🍃 The pictures are so beautiful that it feels like traveling back to the old Japan📸 🍽️ Lunch recommendation｜Honjiya Centennial Eel Rice Just a few steps after getting off the boat is "Benjiya"🍱 This is a long-established eel restaurant with a history of over 340 years. He is also the inventor of "steamed eel rice"! We arrived at 1:30 pm on Saturday and there was no need to queue ✨ 🛕【Afternoon】Dazaifu｜Visiting the God of Learning After Yanagawa, we headed to Dazaifu. This is one of the most famous shrine attractions in Fukuoka, and it is also a place where many students come to pray for good luck in exams and academic success! ✨ As soon as you enter the sandao, there are many unique shops that are very attractive The must-try is the plum cake, and the extra-strong matcha is also very good! 🚶♀️Walk to the end and you will see the main hall of Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine You can come here to ask for amulets, draw lots, walk slowly and take pictures 🍜 Dinner recommendation｜Dazaifu Ichiran When you come to Dazaifu, besides visiting Tenmangu Shrine, there is another thing you must do, which is to eat this bowl of "Five-corner bowl Ichiran" that can only be eaten here in Japan🍜 ✔ Pentagonal bowl ✔ 59cm long noodles, twice as long as normal noodles! They all symbolize passing the test, wishing students to be admitted to the school they want to go to📚 There is almost always a queue here during lunch time (there are so many people!) But we went to eat at 6pm that day, so we didn't have to queue at all~ So it would be best if you can arrange to visit Dazaifu and then have dinner there! The one-day itinerary is fulfilling and healing. Save this article and follow this route next time you come to Fukuoka❤️ #AprilGoodDestinations2025

Yanagawa is a water town only 1 hour away from downtown Fukuoka. Famous for its crisscrossing rivers, century-old eel rice, and tranquil Japanese gardens The weeping willows here gently brush the water surface, and the wooden boats sway It's like falling into an old picture scroll of the Edo period In April during the cherry blossom season, you can also take pictures of the river, cherry blossom trees, small bridges, and rocking boats in the same frame. Transportation: Depart from Fukuoka City Take the Nishitetsu train to Yanagawa Station 10 minutes walk to the cruise terminal Climb aboard a traditional wooden donko boat The boatman holds a bamboo pole and sings a Japanese folk song The cruise takes about 50 minutes If you want to take kimono photos, there is a rental shop near the pier. #globaltravel #九州観光 #日本

I personally think that Yanagawa Fukuoka is the most worthwhile attraction to visit One hour by train from Hakata Not too difficult to visit The cruise booked online costs more than 80 yuan and can take about 40 minutes The boatman will introduce the attractions throughout the trip, which is very interesting if you can speak Japanese But you can still enjoy the view You need to lower your head when passing a low bridge. Very special and interesting experience, recommended must go #3月好去地方2025#Fukuoka之旅 #RegisterMarch酒店试睡人2025 #trip #Yanagawa

Every time I read on the internet, people say it's great. But why do I think it's just average again🙈 Is it because the cloudy day is too hot influence? Or was it because the boatman didn't jump off the bridge? Yes, it was very hot and cloudy but it didn't rain. In fact, the boatman performed singing, too. I also sang a few songs And going to each point will be introduced. Unfortunately I don't know Japanese. I believe that knowing how to listen should put a lot of effort into it. In fact, there were hours of sitting in the boat. I'm not tired bend your legs and legs... Sitting until my pat pat hurts😆 It's actually almost the same It's all river water and some dwellings, It's like passing through a few bridges. There is a place where shops are built by the river. But unfortunately there was no door open that day. It should be open on weekends. Otherwise it should be much more lively. Get off the boat and you can go ashore and walk around. But actually point to point is not close. You have to take a bus to get there. There are only one or two places that can be reached on foot. There is a souvenir shop near the pier. I think it's already the best place to walk. Finally wait for the shuffle bus back to the station. People don't line up and rush to get on the bus. There is only one half an hour. In fact, if you can't get on the bus, you have to wait for the next bus. It takes time and is inconvenient. and no staff to arrange order. Not so flexible. Overall, It's my misfortune to encounter many unsatisfactory things. So I find this experience not so good... But I think this event and place has its fun. It's good to come and feel it🤭 #Fukuoka Attractions #Japan #October #Water Village Yanagawa #Water Village Scenery #Yagawa #Fukuoka #Fukuoka Travel #Boat #Rafting #River Road #River #Western Railway Yanagawa Station #Water Town #River of Life #Yagawa Sightseeing Cruise #Sightseeing Attractions #Matsuzuki Pier

Yanagawa City is located in the southern part of Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is a famous water capital in Japan. Artificial rivers crisscross the city, forming a special and beautiful scenery. Yanagawa's "cruise boat" activity is quite famous. You can enjoy the quaint streetscape and scenery along the way from different angles, making people feel the strong water town culture and natural beauty. Taking a boat along the winding river, the scenery on both sides is picturesque, with green trees and blooming flowers, especially during the cherry blossom season. On the boat, the ferryman's ferrying skills are impressive. They are not only drivers, but also tour guides. They tell tourists about the history and legends of Yanagawa, and they can also sing local folk songs to create an atmosphere. #takeship #100 Ways to Travel
