Kihinkan

Kihinkan is a beautifully preserved traditional Japanese mansion located in the heart of Fukuoka's bustling Nakasu entertainment district. Built in the early 20th century, it was originally a private residence and later a ryokan (traditional inn). The property features a stunning Japanese garden with a pond, stone lanterns, and meticulously pruned trees, providing a peaceful contrast to the neon-lit streets outside. Visitors can explore the tatami-matted rooms, admire intricate woodwork and sliding doors, and enjoy tea in the garden. The mansion is a designated cultural property and offers a rare opportunity to experience early Showa-era architecture and landscaping. Its location near the Naka River makes it a pleasant stop on a walking tour of the area.
