"The city of Fukuoka on Japan's southern island of Kyushu has, since its early history, been a conduit for incoming foreign influences. During the Tokugawa period (1600-1969) the city developed into a castle town. The Nishi (West) park shelters the city's old port area and affords great views." (Hotei) Reference:   Hotei 141 / Narazaki 144.
