Katsuyama Park, a lush public park full of historic charm!
Home to Kokura Castle in Kitakyushu, the park features not only a majestic, historic main keep and an elegant Japanese garden, but is also one of the area’s most iconic spots for viewing cherry blossoms and fall foliage. The spacious lawn is extremely pleasant, making it perfect for a leisurely stroll, a picnic, or admiring the castle from a distance. As the seasons change, the flowers and greenery create a picturesque contrast with the historic architecture.
