Fukuoka Castle Ruins and Ohori Park

I love seeing Japanese castles, so I couldn't pass up seeing the castle ruins in Fukuoka.  They are located in a beautiful park, with a lake and islands.

Beautiful photos, Pamela. I love the Japanese architecture. The castles are stunning. I also love the swan-boat and the sea-turtles! Kisses, my friend.

More history touring. I read the date, 1601, when building was started, that's a long time ago!
It looks like relaxing, peaceful surroundings.

I have been to Fukuoka several times but missed out on both of these sights, unfortunately.
Surprising to see Starbucks, although the spelling mistake is not!, on an official park guide!

I love your pictures. I am taken with photos of the ruins and the modern buildings in the background of the shot of the swan boat. Will you ever run out of places to visit?

I also love castles because they are always full of history even when there are only the ruins. Great pictures.

I can't believe how much you've done on your vacation - it's mid October and we are still getting to see those lovely pictures. Look at all those happy turtles!
