What other travelers are saying about Fukuoka Tower

The attraction is amazing. We can see the beach from here. It’s also cold inside, good enough to cool us during summer. There is a love lock vending machine available to buy locks and then put it with the rest.

The tower is a beautiful monument, particularly at night when it lights up. We took the elevator to the top, finding the views to be extremely beautiful. I took several pictures from every angle, as you could see from the Tower every part of the city. On the first floor there were also shops to buy souvenirs, and I was able to find some excellent products to bring back to my friends. The service was also impeccable and, as has been my experience when visiting Japan, very professional and formal. If you're in the city, visiting the tower is a must!

Recently got to visit Fukuoka and the first place I went to was the Fukuoka tower. Amazing views I did go mid week in the afternoon and it was pretty empty. Everyone was really nice and I was by myself and had no language barrier. Either way awesome people, great views and would love to go back to Fukuoka.

The view from the top is breathtaking. Only think when you reach the top floor they let you walk 2 floors down hoping you can buy things in the souvenirs shop and the bar-restaurant. You are not allowed to use the elevator. I only hope that they take care of the elderly and the handicapped people. I didn't see any option for them, but I may have missed it. (BTW I am 75 but I can still walk stairs up and down, I am a lucky one).

Stunning ocean views and amazing sky-high scenery—totally worth it! The tickets are super affordable, just like most spots in Japan. It might get a bit crowded around sunset though.
