About Shōdai
What are the main landmarks in Shōdai?
Takatori, Fujisaki and Arae are what Shōdai has instead of sights. The landmarks field on the Shodai 1-chome entry came back with nothing in it, so a visit that wants something catalogued has to cross into one of those names rather than stay on this block. That leaves the neighbours, Yayoi among them.
What is the history of Shōdai?
Shōdai's file starts and ends with Shodai 1-chome. No founding year is attached, no charter and no dated event, so the block appears in the record fully formed as an address with nothing behind it to explain when the name was fixed. A reader after dates will not find them here.
Takatori, Fujisaki and Yayoi are the names that come next on the same Fukuoka roll.
Where is Shōdai?
Shōdai belongs to Fukuoka, in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, and Yayoi, Arae and Takatori all stand within a kilometre of it.
