#FukuokaTravel #Mojiko Mojiko is located in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture. It is a port city full of history and culture. It is only an hour’s drive from Fukuoka City, making it a great place for a day trip. The following is my itinerary for the day, for your reference. ⭐️Mojiko Station⭐️ We arrived at Mojiko Station early in the morning. This station was built in 1914 and is an important cultural property of Japan. The station's European architectural style is very unique and worth taking photos of. ⭐️Mojiko Retro Street⭐️ The Mojiko Retro Street is a short walk from the station. Many buildings from the Meiji and Taisho periods are preserved here, and walking among them feels like traveling through time. You can visit the old Moji Mitsui Club, where Albert Einstein and his wife stayed during their trip to Japan. ⭐️Mojiko Observatory⭐️ After lunch, you can go to the Mojiko Observatory to overlook the entire port and the Kanmon Strait from a high altitude. When the weather is good, you can even see Shimonoseki City on the other side. ⭐️Kyushu Railway Memorial Museum⭐️ Then visit the Kyushu Railway Memorial Museum, where many historical relics and models related to railways are displayed. It is a place not to be missed for railway fans.

Mojiko Saryo, located in front of Mojiko Station in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture, is a must-visit spot. Since Mojiko is known as the birthplace of baked curry, I decided to try it out. Besides baked curry, the menu also offers udon and sweets. I arrived just before noon on a weekday and barely managed to get a seat. By the time I left, there was already one group waiting outside. After much deliberation, I ordered: • Adult Black Baked Curry ¥1380 • Mojiko Local Beer ¥780 The Adult Black Baked Curry came with a salad. The rich and flavorful baked curry, served piping hot, was absolutely delicious. The interior of the restaurant has a calm atmosphere, and the staff were friendly, making it a comfortable place even for solo diners. I had a wonderful lunch experience. Definitely give it a visit! 📍Mojiko Saryo 7-8 Minatomachi, Moji-ku, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture ☎️ 093-332-7122 🚃 1-minute walk from Mojiko Station Travel

『Cafe LebenTraum』 Located in Moji Ward, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture I heard about their affordable lunch and decided to check it out. ✤ Limited Quantity Chef's Choice Lunch The main dishes include fried shrimp, karaage (Japanese fried chicken), and fried white fish. Each dish is freshly fried upon order, so they come out hot and crispy! The shrimp was plump and juicy, and both the white fish and karaage were delicious. On this day, the side dishes included tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet), macaroni salad, kinpira made with burdock and lotus root, hijiki (seaweed), and a fresh salad 🥗. Everything was so tasty that I couldn’t stop eating the rice. Additionally, the miso soup was packed with ingredients and had a gentle, flavorful broth. Everyone loves this kind of lunch, right? ¨̮♡ And all of this for just 1000 yen (๑°ㅁ°๑)! The café’s name, "LebenTraum," is German for "Life’s Dream." ¨̮♡ Interestingly, if you don’t pronounce the "T" in the middle, it means "Life’s Space." I even had a little chat with the owner. It’s a very relaxing café with a cozy atmosphere.

#福冈之旅 💞Recommendation reason: On a sunny morning, I took the train from Fukuoka, full of anticipation for Mojiko Port. This port city full of retro style always makes people yearn for it. The scenery outside the window changed as the train moved quickly. The green fields and the mountains in the distance were intertwined, making me intoxicated. Not long after, I arrived at Moji Port. As you walk out of the station, you are greeted by the fresh sea breeze, which makes you feel refreshed. The buildings in Mojiko have retained many of the features of the Meiji era. The red brick warehouses and retro buildings made me feel like I had traveled back in time. I strolled casually around the harbor, the sun shining on my body, feeling warm and comfortable. The sea is sparkling, and the ships in the distance are sailing leisurely. Everything here makes people feel peaceful. Sit on the bench, quietly feel the tranquility, and let your thoughts drift with the sound of the waves. When in Mojiko, you can't miss the famous local curry. After passing a few small restaurants, I decided to go into a curry shop with a cute decor. I ordered a Mojiko-style curry, and the aroma was so fragrant. The curry sauce is rich and paired with fresh seafood, I can't help but eat one bite after another. Every bite was so satisfying and made me appreciate the charm of this city more deeply. After dinner, I continued to explore the charm of Mojiko. We walked along the coastline, admired the beautiful scenery of the port, and saw many local specialty shops. Whether it is handicrafts or local specialties, they all make me feel the strong local culture. As the sun gradually sank to the west, I reluctantly ended the day's journey and took the train back to Fukuoka. This trip to Mojiko not only allowed me to taste delicious curry, but also made me feel the beauty and tranquility of life under the sunshine. I hope to come to this charming place again in the future and continue to explore more stories.
