Tenjin

The Tenjin district extends across western Fukuoka City with multiple department stores, fashion boutiques, restaurants, and entertainment venues along Watanabe-dori street.

During the early 20th century, Tenjin transformed from a residential area into Kyushu's primary business center following the construction of the Fukuoka Prefectural Civic Hall in 1910.

Suikyo Tenmangu Shrine stands in central Tenjin, honoring Sugawara Michizane, while the ACROS Fukuoka building combines modern architecture with traditional Japanese garden elements.

The Tenjin Chikagai underground mall connects multiple subway stations through a 600-meter network of 150 shops, protecting visitors from weather conditions year-round.

Fukuoka Akarenga Cultural Center exhibits late 19th-century English architectural elements, representing a fusion of Western and Japanese building styles in Kyushu.
