What other travelers are saying about Fukuoka Castle Ruins (Maizuru Park)
Amazing to glimpse into over 400 years of history! It was lovely to admire not just the beautiful architecture and construction, but the beautiful views from the high ground.
There are quite a few parts of the ruins scattered across the site and I kind of regret not seeing more.
If you’re in the area and enjoy walking and history, you’ll love this.
I very much enjoyed this detour in our day. Added another few thousand steps to our day. It was very interesting and beautiful. Also- cherry blossoms if in season.
It is impressive, but not during the summer especially not in rainy season. There's not much to see but at least it is free. There are even black cats that walk around the ruins. The paved floor is very very slippery so be careful.
It was nice and peaceful and quite beautiful seeing the sakura in the dim lighting. However, there were too many people and the line to enter the area of the castle when it's lighted is incredibly long, at least an hour of wait. But you can still see the lit castle while walking through the sakura trees below.
