Saga, Japan: Mifuneyama Rakuen
As we move further away from autumn weather, the leaves started to dry-up and fall. Our visit at Mifuneyama Rakuen is during a gloomy day, good thing that we were still able to enjoy the remaining trees in autumn colors.

Fukuoka, Japan: Kamado Shrine
Thanks to Google for providing another option on going to Dazaifu apart from the usual train ride. It's just on this trip that I learned about a bus availability from Hakata Bus Terminal going to Dazaifu Station. From Hakata Terminal, near the clock wall, there is an escalator and walkway going to Bus Terminal. Go to 1F, go to Gate #11, go to the pink lane going to Daizafu.
Fukuoka, Japan: Gundam in Lalaport
If Tokyo travellers include visiting Odaiba for Gundam, in Fukuoka go to Lalaport to see Gundam.

Fukuoka, Japan: Food Crawl
Red buns at Dazaifu
Food: red buns
Price: 130 yen (53 php, 2022)
Location: Dazaifu Old Street
Personal Preference: 8 out of 10
From Dazaifu bus station, we headed straight to the old street to check-out the buns. This is because we want to avoid the crowd and to only have a small snack before we go to Kamado Shrine.
From our short trip at Kamado Shrine, we headed back to the old street. Luckily, there is no queue , try to visit the Starbucks, famous about it's architecture and design. Then, we continue our journey to Dazaifu Shinto Shrine.
