Kego Park, Urban park in Tenjin district, Japan.
Kego Park sits between the NTT Building and Solaria Plaza, offering green spaces with walking paths in Fukuoka's central business area. The park features multiple sections that invite visitors to linger and explore its layout throughout the day.
The park opened in 1951 as part of postwar efforts to create public recreational spaces for communities. Since then it has grown into an important public area in the city center.
The park serves as a gathering place where local residents spend time together and socialize throughout the day. People from across the city use the open areas and pathways to relax or meet with friends in this central location.
The park sits behind Nishitetsu Fukuoka Station and is easy to reach on foot. An underground parking facility offers paid spaces for cars and bicycles if you need to store them.
During the Christmas season, the park transforms with around 300,000 lights and becomes a glittering winter display. The light installations create a festive mood that illuminates Fukuoka's central area.
