As soon as you get off at Fukui Station, you really feel like you're in the “Dinosaur Kingdom”! Dinosaur-themed features are everywhere around the station, and the huge dinosaur statues are the most eye-catching. Together with the station building, they give the area a very distinctive look. I was drawn in before I had even started exploring Fukui!
This was my first visit to Fukui Station, and it felt like more than just a place to transfer between different modes of transportation. It was more like a small dinosaur-themed attraction. The design of Dinosaur Plaza is especially interesting, and there are moving dinosaur displays, so you won't get bored while waiting for your train.
