mojiko retro
Moji Port opened in 1889 and prospered as an international trading port located at the northernmost tip of Kyushu, but for a time it declined. After that, Moji Port was relaunched as "Moji Port Retro" in 1995 with cooperation between the government and the private sector.
``Mojiko Retro'' is lined with quaint buildings that were built in an era when foreign trade flourished, creating a nostalgic atmosphere. The former Moji Mitsui Club, the state guesthouse where Einstein stayed, and Mojiko Station, the first station building in Japan to be designated as a nationally designated important cultural property, have been restored and restored, and have become tourist spots that attract many people from Japan and abroad. It's popular.
