This is the ACROS building. It's a wonderful example of eco-architecture. You can go up into the steps garden during the day to get a nice panorama of Tenjin Chuo Park and the Naka River.

The Naka River that runs past Tenjin. You can cruise down the river in a boat. The port is close to Tenjin Chuo Koen (Central Park).

The city has wonderful flower beds that add some nice colour to the city landscape.

Walking around Tenjin you will come across some interesting architecture.

What is a Japanese city without it's iconic billboards?

CIty lights mirrored by the river below creating a stream of lights. This area, Nakasu, borders Tenjin.

The city comes alive as the sun sets and lights come into effect.

Tenjin is a charming area set in downtown Fukuoka. It has the same exciting feel of a bigger Japanese city but with less crowding. Tenjin leads right up to the Naka River where you find some of the most beautiful scenery. The balance between concrete and nature in this part of the city is on point. There are beautiful parks and viewing points onto the river, as well as some really great architecture. At night this area comes alive as the city lights flicker, mirrored on the surface of the water. Buskers on the bridge create a romantic ambience perfect for an evening stroll.
