Bouton/Bokakuan is a space created by renovating a former craft store and residence in a corner of a shopping street in Nogata City, Fukuoka Prefecture. The banks of the Onga River, which flows through the center of the city, and Mount Fukuchi, which can be viewed from the riverbed, are very beautiful. The city center, where time flows peacefully, is a place where you can spend your time at a leisurely pace. I enjoy listening to people's stories, reading books, taking photos, and taking walks. I also cherish my time by tending to the garden at Bokakuan. Please come and have a nice chat and share some quiet time together.
Required time
It takes about 1.5 hours from Fukuoka Airport and about 1 hour from Hakata Station on the Fukuhoku Yutaka Line without changing trains to Nogata🌸

Day 2
A little way up the hill from the shopping district - Mototori Hydrangea Garden - Fukuchiyamaroku Flower Park
At the foot of the mountains in Nogata City, the colorful flowers of the hydrangea garden delight visitors in June. About 30 years ago, a local man planted hydrangeas at the Mototori Hydrangea Garden in Kamitonno, Nogata City, to beautify the Satoyama area. Since then, the forest has been developed and the number of hydrangeas has increased to over 4,000.
The best time to see them is every June.
