What other travelers are saying about Canal City Hakata
This is a major tourist attraction as well as shopping place in Fukuoka! It’s huge and great varieties of shopping stores are inside the building!
It’s well known for the constant water fountain ⛲️ festivals!
Frequent they have events with pretty nice water shows so get some info from info center and plan accordingly!
There are also delicious food courts in the building so definitely take advantage of those things!
We had a great window shopping and eating time here!
Cheers 🥂
We were lucky that we came here ~ so my kid did not miss this water festival! Every kid loves this water fest very much!
Apart from this, this huge shopping mall has lots of restaurants and a wide variety of shops for kids, young people, and families.
Great place …this a a shopping and restaurant mega built around the old canal - it even has a Hyatt hotel
Restaurants food outlets water playtime for kids and department store - one side of this area back into the red light district the other side is where the food hawkers are - they come out and set up around 5pm and you must line up to get a seat for dinner
We found a better place than that for small eatery’s and that was under the Hyatt - it was extra good as it had air conditioning and lots of little food stalls
It had a great range of food and a fabulous atmosphere- think it was my favourite place for dinner !
Up stairs there was a great tempura bar too where we had lunch - you bought your tickets and went in and sat on the bar where they served you - it was fresh and fab
The building has a unique design — it looks almost like a life-sized toy model. Inside, there are shopping areas, restaurants, and a musical fountain show. Definitely a spot designed for tourists.
The prices here are more expensive than buying online, but that's a given considering it is a mall. The architecture is amazing though, and you can stare at the sliced dome for hours. They have a watershow every half hour, the ones at XX:30 have no sound but the ones at XX:00 have the speakers play epic music. It's really cool just to go and see the watershow.
