About Kusagae
Where to stay in Kusagae
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Ropponmatsu and Ōhori set the terms for a stay in Kusagae, since both stand within a few minutes on foot and both carry more of the city's daily traffic than these two chōme do. Torikai lies nearest. You take Kusagae for streets that stay off the main routes and a short walk out to somewhere busier. Baikōen, Imagawa and Kuromon extend the same walkable band of Fukuoka, and the practical question is only which of those edges a room sits closest to.
About Kusagae
What are the main landmarks in Kusagae?
Kusagae's record lists no landmark inside its two chōme, and what draws anyone into these streets is the walk out of them toward Ōhori, Ropponmatsu and Torikai. The address does the naming. 草香江一丁目及び二丁目 is the whole of the district's entry, a registered name covering a first and a second chōme with no monument attached to either. Baikōen and Imagawa sit a little further out.
What is the history of Kusagae?
Kusagae's two chōme carry no date. What the register holds is a name and a shape: 草香江一丁目及び二丁目 gathers a first and a second chōme under one heading, and Fukuoka keeps the pair together as a single district of the city. Above the city stand Fukuoka Prefecture and Japan.
Beyond that the file is quiet, offering neither a charter nor a founder, and leaving the streets themselves and the walk to Ropponmatsu as the district's only visible past.
Where is Kusagae?
Kusagae takes in two chōme of Fukuoka ground, hemmed by Torikai, Ropponmatsu and Ōhori, within Fukuoka Prefecture in Japan.
