The main branch has a long wait, so I went to Ichiran Ramen located in the basement of Sun Plaza in front of Hakata Station! It's connected to the basement of the station. There was still a wait even though I visited around 2:30 PM! Fortunately, the turnover was high, so I only had to wait about 15 minutes😆 After ordering at the kiosk, choose the cooking method to your liking and choose additional toppings, and you're done~! ✔️Location: 812-0011 2-2-1 Hakataekimae Hakata-ku Fukuoka-shi Fukuoka-ken Fukuoka Center Building B2F ✔️Opening hours: 10:00-22:00 #JapanTravel #Fukuoka #FukuokaTravel #FukuokaRestaurant #HakataStation #HakataRestaurant #IchiranRamen #PlacesToVisitInJapan #HakataRamenRestaurant

Ichiran Ramen is a Fukuoka tonkotsu ramen specialty store. Tonkotsu means pork, and it is pork broth ramen. The characteristic of this store is that you can adjust the spiciness, so if it is as spicy as Shin Ramyun, check Level 2. There are many branches in Fukuoka, and the main branch is so crowded that you have to wait in line to eat. I ate at the branch in front of Hakata Station without waiting in line, so if it is not the main branch, try eating in front of Hakata Station. #FukuokaRestaurant #TonkotsuRamen #Ichiran #JapaneseRamen Location: Japan 〒812-0011 Fukuoka, Hakata Ward, Hakata Ekimae, 2 Chome−2−1, Fukuoka Center Building, B2F

Although I haven't been to Japan many times, this hotel is currently my top choice. Residence Hotel Hakata Minoshima is an apartment-style hotel. Just like the first word 'Residence', after staying for two nights, I really felt like a local resident. There's a 24-hour Seiyu Sunny supermarket and a 7-11 within a three-minute walk. From the balcony, you can see the children of Sumiyoshi School happily playing sports. The room is equipped with basic amenities, including a microwave, a large double-door refrigerator, a clothes drying rack, a washing machine, and a small packet of laundry detergent. The TV has Netflix and YouTube. The door uses an electronic code lock, so there's no need to worry about losing a room card or key. The lighting when you first enter is just beautiful. I will definitely stay here again next time 😊 Residence Hotel Hakata Minoshima: https://maps.app.goo.gl/3vNcjiJJZchewfsN7?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

#福冈之旅 8:00 AM - Arrived at Hakata Station Early in the morning, I took the subway from downtown Fukuoka to Hakata Station, feeling excited and expectant. Hakata Station is not only a transportation hub in Kyushu, but also a place full of history and modernity. As soon as you exit the station, you will see the hall in front of you bustling with people, busy but orderly, making you instantly feel the vitality of this city. 9:00am - Explore the interior of the station The interior design of Hakata Station is simple and modern, yet still retains a traditional Japanese aesthetic. There are many shops and restaurants within the station, selling everything from authentic Kyushu ramen to exquisite wagashi. I especially recommend the ramen from Hakata Ippudo, which has a rich soup and chewy noodles. It is definitely the perfect choice for breakfast. 10:30am - Hakata Station History Museum Next, I headed to the Hakata Station History Museum located inside the station. The development history of Hakata Station is displayed here, from early steam locomotives to modern bullet trains, which makes people marvel at the advancement of technology. There are also many precious old photos and cultural relics in the exhibition, which make people feel as if they are traveling through time and space and returning to that nostalgic era. 12:00 noon - Lunch time For lunch, I chose "Hakata Motsu Nabe Yamachu" inside the station, a restaurant specializing in Hakata's specialty offal hot pot. The soup base of the hot pot is delicious, the offal is handled just right, and it is paired with fresh vegetables and tofu, which is very memorable. 1:30pm - Canal City Hakata In the afternoon, I walked about 15 minutes from Hakata Station to Canal City Hakata. This is a comprehensive facility that integrates shopping, entertainment and dining. The unique architectural design and the canal running through it make people feel like they are in Venice. I visited many unique shops here and enjoyed a wonderful street performance. 4:00pm - Return to Hakata Station After returning to Hakata Station, I strolled around the Hankyu Department Store inside the station. There are many high-quality goods and delicacies here, and it is a great place to buy souvenirs. I especially recommend the "Hakata Dorimon", a traditional Japanese confectionery named after Hakata. It has a crispy outer skin and sweet filling, making it perfect for taking home and sharing with friends and family. 6:00pm - Farewell to Hakata Station As the sun sets, I reluctantly bid farewell to Hakata Station. This day's journey made me deeply feel the charm of Hakata. Whether it is the profound sense of history or the modern prosperous scene, it makes people linger. Hakata Station is not only a transportation hub, but also a place full of stories and emotions. Standing on the platform of Hakata Station, watching the people coming and going, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions. This is not only the starting point and end point for travelers, but also the beginning and end of countless stories. Every figure passing by has his or her own destination and dream. Hakata Station has witnessed the laughter and tears of countless people, and also carries the memory and future of this city. Since its opening in 1889, Hakata Station has been an important transportation hub in Kyushu. As the times change, the station has been continuously modernized, but it still retains many historical traces. The Hakata Station History Museum inside the station is the best witness to these changes. The scenery around Hakata Station is equally charming. Whether it is the square in front of the station or the nearby Hakata Canal City, it will make people linger. Especially at night, the lights are bright, the station and the surrounding buildings complement each other, presenting a beautiful urban picture. This day's trip to Hakata Station made me deeply feel the charm and vitality of this city. Whether it is the profound sense of history or the prosperous modern scene, it makes people linger. Hakata Station is not only a transportation hub, but also a place full of stories and emotions. I look forward to visiting again next time and continuing to explore the infinite possibilities of this city. 🌟 #Hakata Station #Kyushu Travel #Fukuoka Attractions #Day Tour #Japan Travel #History and Modernity #Food Tour #Transportation Hub #Hakata Canal City #Travel Impressions

#Heart-pounding summer vacation ✨️Huru Huru✨️ is the original bakery for mentaiko baguettes, opened in 1986. It started as a dry bread manufacturing business in 1917, and about 30 years ago, it started making baguettes with Japanese wheat, which was unstable at the time. Now, it is popular for making stable Japanese wheat baguettes. The Fukuoka main store first made mentaiko baguettes in 2001 using mentaiko, a Fukuoka specialty. The name of this mentaiko baguette is Mentaiko France, and it is characterized by its French bread that is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, baked with carefully selected mentaiko and butter, with the intention of making Hakata's famous bread. 🎯9-3 Gionmachi, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka, 812-0038 Japan

Address: Located in Tenjin Central Park Atmosphere/Facilities: The atmosphere is luxurious and the facilities are good because it is a new building.. It is a large building! The lighting is delicious! The bathroom was also clean! Key Points: It seems that many Japanese locals come to eat it because it uses mentaiko, a Fukuoka specialty, as the main ingredient! It is on the salty side, so those who like bland food might find it salty! I personally think that mentaiko is better in Korea;; But the rice was good! This place really makes good rice! The tsukemen with mentaiko was actually better! (Maybe because I didn't expect much) The noodles were really chewy and the soup was a flavor that Koreans can't dislike! There is also spicy sauce for extra spiciness! Average price per person: In the case of the No. 1 set that is the most popular, it is in the late 20,000 won range Rating: 4/5 - I wonder if it is worth waiting for over an hour..; It's delicious, but the waiting is hell, so I give it 4 stars🥲 I went around 7:30 on a weekday morning and waited for about 50 minutes.. The line doubled after I left after eating #FukuokaTravel #FukuokaRestaurant #HakataTenjin #HakataRestaurant #Tsukemen #Mentaiko
