The Moji area

I quite liked the architechture in this area, with older European style buildings around this place.

It's a short train trip from Kokura station, and there is a ferry which gets you there from Shimonoseki in about 10 minutes or so.

Kokura castle

Castle fans will enjoy visiting Kokura castle. There are some interesting displays inside as well.

There's also a nice garden nearby.
