Last update :

On the vast 43,500m² premises, a shopping mall, movie complex, theater, amusement park and two hotels cluster. Its symbol, a 180m-long canal, crosses along the center of the space lined with colorful buildings.

Along with shopping and entertainment, just being there is delightful at Canal City Hakata. At the “Canal,” benches are laid out by the waters, making it a nice rest area. ”Sea Court” is a fun space with natural stones on the floor where water balls shoot out. “Crystal Canyon” is open from the 1st basement to 4th floor in the image of a canyon. Fountain shows are performed at “Sun Plaza Stage.” At night, water columns are lit up, creating a fantastic ambience in the ”Star Court.” Each of the five areas has a different design scheme.

Check out the fountain show performing every hour, stage events and public art.

    Canal City Hakata is such a great place to hang out! There’s everything inside—food, shopping, even movies! The design is really unique, and there’s a fountain show to watch, too. You could easily spend the whole day here and never get bored.

    When you visit Fukuoka, most tourists check out Canal City Hakata.
    You can also catch the water fountain show here!
    At night, there's a fountain show with lights and sound effects, plus a 3D projection mapping show.

    If you're looking for food, head to Ramen Stadium on the 5th floor for authentic Japanese ramen—there are 8 different ramen shops, each with their own regional flavors.

    Every time I bring a group here, I always introduce them to the most popular ramen: Ichiran Ramen. It's on the north basement floor of Canal City Hakata, and it's a huge favorite among Taiwanese visitors.
    Add a soft-boiled egg—it's so delicious! Highly recommended.
    If you like spicy food, try their special spicy sauce (it's got a real kick!).

    And here's something unique: This is the only Ichiran Ramen in all of Japan that serves ramen in a square bowl!
