It's right across from Yamashita Park and the pier, and really close to shopping areas.

Sarakurayama Observatory
It's an observatory from which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Kitakyushu city area. To reach the observatory at the summit of the 622-meter-high mountain, visitors take a cable car and a slope car.
You take two cable cars to reach the top. As one of Japan's new top three night views, it's definitely worth a visit.

Himeji Castle Nishi-Oyashiki-ato Garden KOKO-EN
On the southwest side of Himeji Castle, a World Heritage Site, Koko-en is a strolling-style garden around ponds and consists of nine different themed gardens, including the Garden of the Lord’s Residence, on a vast site of approx. 3,300 m2. The Edo period atmosphere draws visitors, and it’s also known as a popular filming location for movies and TV shows, including samurai dramas.
The garden is absolutely beautiful and has a great atmosphere. If you buy the combo ticket with Himeji Castle, it's only JPY 1,050.
