Imaizumi, Fukuoka — Area Guide & Where to Stay
Imaizumi, or 今泉, is a compact quarter of Fukuoka, with Tenjin, Daimyō and Yakuin only a few blocks away.
About Imaizumi
Where to stay in Imaizumi
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Imaizumi is a place to sleep, not to sightsee. Rooms in the 今泉 blocks come without a landmark on the doorstep, though Tenjin, Daimyō and Nishi-nakasu are all reachable on foot, which puts a great deal of the city within a walk of the pillow. Tenjin is a walk, not a ride.
Travellers who value walking over a view can take a room in Imaizumi and treat Fukuoka as one continuous errand.
About Imaizumi
What are the main landmarks in Imaizumi?
Nothing is listed under the district's name. Imaizumi appears with a Japanese form, 今泉, and a place in Fukuoka Prefecture, but no shrine, gallery or hall is recorded on its streets for a visitor to walk toward. The neighbours hold the interest.
Tenjin, Daimyō and Ōmiya stand within a few minutes, so the walking a visitor does from Imaizumi mostly ends outside it.
What is the history of Imaizumi?
The record offers a name and little else. Imaizumi is set down as 今泉 and as a district of Fukuoka, with no year of founding, no chartering document and no first mention attached, which leaves the quarter without a dated beginning of its own. Dates belong to the city.
Fukuoka expanded across this ground alongside Yakuin, Kego and Haruyoshi, and the street pattern that resulted is the district's only real record.
Where is Imaizumi?
Fukuoka Prefecture surrounds it. The district lies well inside the built-up body of Fukuoka in Japan, with Kego, Watanabe-dōri and Haruyoshi close on its edges.
