Hakata Old Town Light-up Walk

Detail

Hakata Old Town is an area that thrived as the heart of Hakata,
Japan’s largest trading port city during the Middle Ages.
The area is home to countless Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples,
and these will be beautifully lit-up as part of the night-time event— Hakata Old Town Light-up Walk.

This special event is an excellent opportunity to experience the wonders of Hakata differently to its daytime appearance.
Within the serene silence created by the beautiful light cast on the shrines and temples that tell Hakata’s history,
we hope you can enjoy a moment of peace away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

This year's edition, we set art installations collaborating with "Art in Hakata Old Town",
food stalls here and there, Japanese traditional entertainments,
collecting a series of stamps and more!
So let's walk, eat, drink, pray and enjoy yourselves!
