I have been craving for a short break to some rural area to enjoy some fantastic scenery with our yearly family trip and with all the choices – we headed to Fukuoka Yufuin Osen in Japan – one of the best natural hot springs. We booked our flight to Fukuoka International Airport and stayed in Hakata for two days before taking the JRC train to Yufuin for another two days. I am just gonna go through my highlights in Hakata in this post. 

First thing when we landed in Japan was getting an early dinner. There were ramen, sushi, bento, skewed food etc. We picked few things from the Hakata station, the under street market and snacks nearby, there is s shopping mall with supermarket too which is very convenient. FYI, I tried a very good hazelnut latte takeaway at the Ueshima Coffee shop with a tagline printed on the cup ” precious moment” which I highly recommend everyone, it is inside the station.
