【Fukuoka Airport】Best Places to Buy Souvenirs: Senka, Tamaya, and SOLAE

Senka, Tamaya, and SOLAE are shops located on the 2nd floor of the domestic terminal near the security checkpoint at Fukuoka Airport. They are perfect spots to find souvenirs before leaving Fukuoka Airport. While you can also purchase souvenirs after passing through security, the variety is generally greater at these shops outside the checkpoint. - Especially for food items, there is a wide range of sizes available for the same product. Popular items include Umegae Mochi (a specialty of Dazaifu, available in packs of 5 or 10), Menbei crackers, and mentaiko (spicy cod roe). - Umegae Mochi, if purchased frozen, can be kept for about three hours with an ice pack. If you're lucky enough to get freshly baked ones, you can freeze them the same day to enjoy later. Even if you can't make it to Dazaifu, these make for delightful souvenirs.
