2025 Ogori Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#JapanTravel The place I was most satisfied with in Fukuoka was Nyoirinji. Nyoirinji is famous for its frog shrine, because there are so many frog statues, paintings, artworks, and props in the shrine. I didn't know it would be this big, but it was much bigger than I thought! It probably took more than an hour just to look around. There are so many frog artworks that it could be a museum, and they are also selling a lot! It was so much fun to look around that I couldn't capture them in pictures. The scenery is also carved with frogs, and there are many frog statues hidden here and there. I guess it's not well-known to Koreans yet, so there were quite a few local tourists, but we were the only foreigners. By the way, the frog shrine is a rumor, and it's said to be the personal taste of the person running the shrine!

Just a 12-minute walk from Nishitetsu Misasagi Station, you'll find a greenhouse strawberry farm (Shiraki no Ichigo Shiawasemon). The area isn't very large, but for 2500 yen, you can pick and eat as many strawberries as you want for 50 minutes. You can also take home 100g for 350 yen. The strawberries are big and red, and although they aren't very sweet, they have a wonderful strawberry aroma. Additionally, just a 3-minute walk from the strawberry farm, you can reach Nyoirinji Temple (Frog Temple). The temple has many cute frog statues and is open for visitors! Misasagi Station offers both a visit to Frog Temple and strawberry picking, making it highly recommended!

Dazaifu is a popular spot in Fukuoka, and I originally planned to spend a day visiting Dazaifu, Tenmangu Shrine, and Kamado Shrine. I thought it might be a bit rushed, but because there were too many people and there weren't any particularly special sights to keep you there, I finished in three to four hours. So I searched online for nearby places to visit and found Ruyi Wheel Temple. It takes less than half an hour to get there from Dazaifu by taking the Nishitetsu train to Misawa Station, and then it's about a 15-minute walk following Google Maps after you exit the station. From the entrance, you can already see the autumn leaves in full bloom along the way, and then you see many different frog decorations of various shapes, materials, and sizes, which make you want to explore every corner and take your time to admire them. Even the ema (wooden plaques) and omamori (amulets) are frog-shaped, which is very cute. More importantly, there aren't many people; on the day I visited, there were only about a dozen tourists, so you can leisurely stroll around.

If you find yourself in Fukuoka or Tosu, don't miss out on the delightful and surprising Nyoirin-ji Temple! Home to over 10,000 frog statues in various forms, this temple is a paradise for frog enthusiasts. 1. The Origin and Meaning of Frogs In Japanese, the word for frog is 'KAERU,' which also means 'to return' or 'to come back safely.' Thus, frogs are considered symbols of protection and good fortune in Japanese culture. This temple, with its frog theme, signifies 'happy travels and safe returns,' attracting countless visitors and locals alike. 2. The Adorable Frog Tour at Nyoirin-ji Temple Upon entering the temple, you'll be surrounded by frogs everywhere. From the entrance to the main hall, and even in small corners, you'll find various cute frog statues, perfect for photo opportunities. Highlight 1: Frogs in Various Forms The frogs here come in many forms—holding lotus flowers, carrying luggage, wearing straw hats, and playing drums. Each one is charming and seems to welcome every visitor. Highlight 2: Wishing and Blessings In front of the main hall, you can pick up a small frog statue, write your wish on it, and place it in the wishing pond. It's said to bring good luck and help fulfill your desires! Highlight 3: Frog Stone Sculptures and Souvenirs The temple also features large frog stone sculptures, perfect for memorable photos. Additionally, the nearby shop sells various frog-themed items, from small charms to mascots, making it hard to leave empty-handed. 3. Address and Transportation • Address: Simply search 'Nyoirin-ji Temple' on Google Maps to find it easily. • Transportation Recommendations: 1. By Car: From Fukuoka City or Tosu, it's about a 40-minute drive, and the temple offers free parking. 2. Public Transportation: Take the JR to Tosu Station, then a taxi for about 20 minutes. 4. Travel Tips 1. Best Visiting Seasons: Spring and summer, when the surroundings are lush and the atmosphere is fresh and pleasant. 2. Bring a Camera: The frogs here are too cute, and every corner is worth capturing! 3. Travel Light: The temple paths are mostly stone steps, so wear comfortable shoes for easy walking. Conclusion: Happy Frogs, Guardians of Your Journey Nyoirin-ji Temple is not only a place of Zen but also a charming spot that will make you smile. Whether you're here to make a wish, take a stroll, or simply enjoy the cuteness, this will be a unique stop on your Fukuoka trip! Remember to carry the blessings and protection of the frogs, travel happily, and return safely!

The Ruyi Wheel Temple, which has been established for over 1000 years, is a well-known attraction in Fukuoka. It is also known as the 'Frog Temple' because it houses over ten thousand frog statues. The temple is a must-visit power spot, believed to bless visitors with safe travels, longevity, and financial prosperity. During the autumn foliage season, the temple grounds are dyed a vibrant red, creating a stunning autumn foliage scene. You can take photos with the frog statues against the backdrop of the red leaves. In summer, the temple hosts the 'Wind Chime Festival,' where thousands of wind chimes are displayed, creating a dreamy scene. It is an excellent spot for taking photos and a special place you shouldn't miss. Address: 1729 Yokokuma, Ogori City, Fukuoka Prefecture
