🇯🇵Japan Fukuoka Attractions⛩️ Kushida Shrine Spectacular and Gorgeous Mikoshi💫

#福冈旅行

Kushida Shrine is a historic shrine located in Hakata District, Fukuoka City. It is about a 5-minute walk from Exit 2 of Gion Station or Nakasu Kawabata Station.

The most famous thing about Kushida Shrine is that it has a giant Yamakasa. This spectacular and gorgeous portable shrine is left in the shrine for people to admire after the festival. If you look closely at every detail of the Yamakasa carvings, you will find they are so delicate that you will feel incredibly beautiful. The Kushida Ginkgo tree at the entrance is a designated natural monument of Fukuoka Prefecture. It is said to be over 1,000 years old and is revered as a sacred tree!
