Japanese Ryokan Kashima Honkan

Ryokan Kashima Honkan is located in the centre of Hakata in Fukuoka city!! You can enjoy and have a great experience in your Hakata life!!

Before 1889, Hakata was an independent town to the northeast of Fukuoka. Hakata, which was closer to the sea, housed the city's merchants, while Fukuoka housed the samurai. When the two cities merged, the samurai coerced the merchants into naming the combined city "Fukuoka."

Ryokan Kashima Honkan is located in the centre of Hakata city, but you will stay at traditional Sukiya (tea-ceremony house) style of room in quiet environment. Our Ryokan (Japanese style Inn) is built in Sukiya-zukuri style. This type of architecture represents the elements of a Japanese tea ceremony. Our building was registered as "Tangible Cultural Property" by
Japanese government in May of 2007 for its traditional and excellent architecture.

We have our own enclosed Japanese traditional garden and here you can feel atmosphere of the Taishou Period (1911-1924).

Located in downtown Fukuoka City, you can easily to get the main attractions such as "Canal City Hakata" and more by walk. Canal City Hakata is one of the biggest amusement centers in the world which is really close to our Ryokan. There are also many old temples and Shinto shrines in this area.

One of the closest shrine 'Kushida Shrine' is very famous for the summer festival 'Hakata Gion Yamakasa' which is an annual summer festival held from July 1 to 15 by Kushida Shrine in Fukuoka City. With a history stretching back over 750 years, in 1979 it was designated an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. In 1241, to drive away an epidemic in Hakata, a high-ranking priest was carried by local residents around the town on a shelf and sprinkled holy water along the way. The Hakata Gion Yamakasa of today evolved from this event.
