See & DoThere are always great attractions to explore
Asakura City is undoubtedly rich in culture and history.
It's home to a huge number of fascinating tourist hotspots. Here are some that might make your trip even more unforgettable, from the historic streetscape of Yoshii Town, the Ukiha Inari Shrine (which has become a spiritual spot in recent years) to fruit picking, and roadside rest areas.
Wonderful views
Kohyama Shoryu Gaint Kannon Statue
Approx. 1 minute to drive from our resort
The giant Kannon statue is up on a hill overlooking Harazuru Onsen. It's commonly believed that the statue can bring good luck and fortune. At 28m tall, it is the largest Shoryu Kannon statue in the country. Not far away is another spiritual spot with another Kannon statue (the symbol of self-control power) and a Jizo statue (the god of audible power).
Lines of direct sale stores with local fresh veggies and fruits picked that same day morning, as well as handmade processed food products in which you can see the faces of the producers. Persimmons are especially famous, and processed products such as persimmon chips and persimmon dressing are perfect souvenir choices. You can also attain useful tourist information about Asakura City and the nearby areas.
The shrine is located in Jogahana Park, enshrining the gods of business prosperity, bountiful harvests & successful sake brewing, health, longevity, and academic success. The 91 Torii gates line a steep mountain slope, and the spectacular view beyond the gates is just amazing. It is a popular spiritual and photogenic spot.
Originally the residence of Kuroda Naoyuki, the younger brother of Kuroda Josui. In 1623, Nagamasa Kuroda's third son, Nagaoki, restored the architecture and made it into his castle. Currently, the castle ruins are designated as a historic site, and the Kuromon and Nagayamon gates are both selected as tangible prefectural cultural properties. It is also a famous spot for cherry blossoms and autumn leaves.
As many as 160,000 sunflowers reach their flowery peak in the large field right in front of the Basaro Farm at the Harazuru roadside rest area." The single blossoms are as tall as 2m with a 30 cm flower. There is also an annual festival to celebrate the flowery peak (from mid to late September).
The oldest auto-rotating and multi-unit waterwheels still work in Japan (designated as a national historic site). The waterwheels were created around 230 years ago. It starts to turn every year on June 17th at the Yamada Weir Water Opening Ceremony, and it normally draws water from the Chikugo River for agriculture from rice planting to harvesting. The fantastic illumination during the Obon period makes the spot even more fancy.
Imagine strolling around in kimono in Akizuki, a tasteful retro-chic town known as "a small Kyoto of Kyushu Chikuzen region" as Akizuki Ikedaya tailor makes kimono workshops for tourists (remember to make your reservation!). Be amazed by the wide variety of choices in different patterns and sizes. Make such a playful stroll in kimono your life-long memory.
