Fukuoka, one last stop before I reach Huis Ten Bosch.

Fukuoka Nights

Fukuoka Nights Flag 福岡, Japan

Upon arriving in Fukuoka I noticed the weather being very cloudy due to the typhoon that is currently raging alongside the Japanese coast which will head land inward near Osaka. I chose a pricey sushi restaurant near the station to measure the sushi quality in Fukuoka.

Unfortunately it reminded me of Toronto sushi and felt ripped off. With a full belly I went on a browsing trip through the city center. Fukuoka is another beautiful city in Japan with nice shopping streets and cool designed buildings. After searching for hours to find a cheap hotel I became desperate and took anything at that moment. The room smelled like crap and I felt ripped off again, the hotel's name was ARK hotel royal, although the bed was comfortable.

The rip offs all went away after I ended up at a local Hiphop club (on a Wednesday) it wasn't busy, maybe that was why they only charged 1000 yen ($12) for all you can drink. Yes you read it right all you can drink. This place was called Club Mars on Nishidori street. Definitely check it out if you ever make it to Fukuoka, who would pass up a $12 all you can drink party.
