EdhoZell, the famous Youtuber from Indonesia had visited Fukuoka and Saga for their vacations as a family and their mission to find a weird delicious food. How did it go, Let’s see…
Here is their itinerary;
Our first day started from Kitakyushu area, so it is very convenient to arrive via Kitakyushu Airport direct from Tokyo, and we go to try Fugu (blowfish sashimi)
Got an exclusive shot when the chef was slicing the fugu.
Next stop, we went to visit Kitakyushu Railroad Museum. Here you can find many retro trains and also you can ride a mini train here.
then proceed to see Nemophila field under the blue sky. As we came in the peak bloom period, the scenery was just unforgettable.
Next Day, we checked out from the hotel and leave in the morning to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, and try Umegaimochi (crispy red bean mochi).
And next stop is Yanagawa, EdhoZell and his family got to change to Yukata (Japanese Robe) and ride a river cruise. Listen to the boatman sing a song paddle along the river.
Another flower that should not miss in this season is Fuji (Wisteria). At Nakayama Fuji festival, there is a 300-year fuji attracting people to come to visit every year.
Now let’s move to see Saga prefecture.
First of all, we traveled back to ancient time of Japan at Yoshinogari Historical Park. You can experience the lifestyle of Japanese in the Yayoi period.
Then go to learn how to make a tea at one of the best green tea fields in Ureshino, Japan. You can also experience how to dye a cloth with tea.
Another highlight of Saga must be Yutoku Inari Shrine, as it is one of biggest Inari shrine in Japan.
and also proceed to visit Hado cape, a romantic place to be with your loved one. There is also a lighthouse that you can enter underground to see underwater lives.
And you should try fresh dancing Ika (squid) sashimi here.
