Traveler highlights

Dazaifu Station is the terminus of the Nishitetsu Dazaifu Line and the most convenient stop for Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. Its predecessor was the Dazaifu Horsecar Railway, opened in 1902, making it one of the oldest stations in the Nishitetsu network. The current station building takes inspiration from the shrine and has a tourist information counter. Outside, the approach to the shrine is lined with restaurants and souvenir shops. The journey naturally shifts from train travel to a shrine visit and a stroll through the temple town. Leave time to browse for local sweets and yuzu products along the approach and connect the station, shopping street and shrine in one outing.
