Hakata temple & shrine town trail, in Fukuoka-prefecture
Hakata temple and shrine town is located within walking distance of JR ]Hakata Station and
there are many Temples and Shrines where you can feel and soak up the ambience of true
traditional Japanese culture.
The history of Hakata temple and shrine town started with the dispatch of Japanese cultural and
political missions to China in the 7th century. Afterwards the area prospered as the hub of Hakata,
which at the time was the largest port trading city in Japan.
There are many valuable artefacts and monuments here, including Tochoji temple, Kushida
Shrine, Jotenji temple, Shofukuji temple as well as Engakuji temple.
It is also surprising that Hakata has little recognition for being the origin of many culinary staples
such as Udon and Soba noodles, Manju (steamed bun), Uiro (steamed cake made of rice flour),
and traditional beverages like Japanese green tea.
This important historical area is also the location of Japan’s first Zen-temple and Shingon-temple.
