Yukuhashi, Urban center in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan

Yukuhashi extends across 70 square kilometers of land in eastern Fukuoka Prefecture, bordering the Gulf of Suo on the Seto Inland Sea.

The territory of present-day Yukuhashi contained mountain fortresses called kōgoishi during the Asuka Period to protect against potential invasions from Silla and Tang China.

The city maintains traditional agricultural practices, with rice cultivation forming an essential part of local customs and economic activities throughout the seasons.

The transportation network includes the JR Kyushu Nippō Main Line, Tagawa Line, and Higashikyushu Expressway, connecting residents to major cities like Kitakyushu.

The Goshogotani Kōgoishi, designated as a National Historic Site, stands as a testament to the ancient defensive structures of the region.
