A nostalgic journey to Mojiko and Shimonoseki, a touching journey of the soul 🌊✨

#FukuokaItinerary

On a sunny morning, I set out on my journey to Mojiko, full of anticipation. Taking the JR Kyushu train from Hakata, the approximately one-hour ride allowed me to experience the beautiful scenery of Kyushu. When the train slowly entered Mojiko Station, my mood was as nostalgic and romantic as the retro station building. 🚉

As I walked out of the station, what came into view was a well-preserved historical district. I was amazed by the European-style buildings of the Old Mojiko Customs Office and the Mitsui Club. These ancient buildings seem to be telling the prosperity and stories of the past. Every brick and every window bears the mark of history, making me involuntarily immersed in the nostalgia of the past. At this moment, the people coming and going around me made me feel the vitality and vitality of this place, and I was deeply moved. 💖

Walking in the nostalgic area of ​​Mojiko, I couldn't help but stop and quietly appreciate every corner here. The brightly colored exterior of the old Osaka Shokan Building and the opening and closing show of the Blue Wing Suspension Bridge made me feel like I was in a movie, and every moment was amazing. Especially at Straits Plaza, seeing the familiar "Banana Man" performance instantly brought me back to my childhood, and I couldn't help but feel filled with emotion. 🍌

Afterwards, I boarded a connecting boat and crossed the Kanmon Strait. The five-minute journey filled me with anticipation. The sea was sparkling and the magnificent view of the Kanmon Suspension Bridge appeared before my eyes, making me want to capture this moment with my camera. However, the inner feelings cannot be recorded with a camera. As the boat slowly approached the shore and I saw Shimonoseki City on the opposite bank, my heart was filled with awe for this land. 🌉

The crowded Karato Market in Shimonoseki City made me feel the enthusiasm and vitality of this place. The fresh seafood and delicious sushi made me want to try it again and again. Especially the fresh and tender puffer fish sashimi, which made me marvel at the gift of nature and moved me to the point of almost crying. Every bite seems to tell the story of the sea, making me more grateful for life. 🍣

This day's journey is not only a sightseeing trip, but also a spiritual baptism. Between Mojiko and Shimonoseki, I not only felt the weight of history, but was also moved by the feelings of this land. Whether it is the ancient buildings or the enthusiastic people, they all made me understand the true meaning of travel: it is not only to appreciate the scenery, but also a process of deep dialogue with life. 💫

This kind of journey makes me full of hope for the future and makes me cherish every moment in front of me. In this beautiful land, I experienced touching and shocking feelings, which will become an eternal memory in my heart.
