Huis Ten Bosch Theme Park

Trip Highlight in Fukuoka! Our day here was the highlight of our Fukuoka vacation! Our family thoroughly enjoyed all the sights and rides—there’s so much to see, do, explore, and eat. We visited on a weekday, so it wasn’t very crowded, and we were able to enter most attractions with ease. The place is beautiful, well-maintained, and very organized. Staff were friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. I took a break at one of the coffee shops, and was pleasantly surprised by how good the coffee and food were. We also did the boat ride during sunset, and it was absolutely wonderful—a peaceful and scenic way to end the day. Definitely a must-try, esp for families and groups!

This place is big and fun. There are bicycle rental for 3000¥, 1 hr later 1000¥. There is a sightseeing boat from Welcome gate to Canal city ( not in hakata) . We waited 30 minutes for the Zipline. It was very fun and adventurous! There was also a bus from the gate to Attractions. There are some good restaurants everywhere. A shooting game is near the pier ( I didn't win any :( ) At the attraction town, there's a chocolate shop with a challenge. The VR took 25 minutes but it last only 3 minutes. Inside the hotel, there's a french buffet all you can eat, for only 16.800¥ 2 adults 1 child. There are two inside playground for children, the other one which is more tech, needs to wait 45 minutes :/. Other games to average 20 minutes. There is also a 90 meter ferris wheel 🎡. A water park is included too! A fishing game is inside a mall. My family won the first and second place!!. At 20:10, near the water park there is a light show that lasts 10 minutes and fireworks at 9 PM . I recommend you to not use map, it may be a little hard but It will be fun finding places! But from huis ten Bosch station, since 8 30 pm I didn't see the huis tên bosch express for Hakata station

Visiting Huis Ten Bosch during Christmas was like stepping into a European winter fairy tale! The entire park transforms into a glowing wonderland, with millions of LED lights covering buildings, trees, and canals — it’s easily one of the most beautiful illuminations in Japan. There’s a giant Christmas tree in the center plaza that lights up in sync with music, and the seasonal decorations throughout the Dutch-style town add a festive, cozy vibe. Everywhere you walk, there’s holiday music playing softly in the background, creating a warm and cheerful atmosphere. The Christmas Market stalls sell warm treats like hot cocoa, mulled wine, roasted meats, and festive desserts. You can also shop for unique ornaments and European-style holiday gifts. The parades and performances feel very special during the holidays, especially when paired with fireworks in the evening. If you go, dress warmly — it’s chilly, especially by the water! I recommend staying until after dark to really enjoy the lights. It’s perfect for couples, families, or anyone wanting to get into the holiday spirit. Huis Ten Bosch at Christmas is unforgettable — 100% worth the trip!

A magical place in Japan that transports you to Europe. Unlike most of Japan's theme parks, this one is not that crowded. It has rides and attractions suitable for all ages, also has team lab attractions which I enjoyed. The flower theme changes every month. It was rose season when we visited. Since the area is wide, it would be better to plan your visit ahead. Advisable for a full day visit. There is also a wide selection of restaurants and food stalls available, including affordable ones just outside the entrance (such as Ringerhut).

Very easy to park and get in. Was a weekday so not so busy. A few visitors so we enjoyed all the park had to provide. Some things are a bit dated but that does add does nostalgia to it. Fireworks short at 10 min although if you know the time it’s fun. Recommend to see at least once.
