The cherry blossom viewing itinerary coincided with the lively appearance of the Fukuoka Hakata "Goldfish Festival" exhibition. It is set on the 9th floor of Hakata Station. There were a lot of people to watch the exhibition on Saturday afternoon. The exhibition layout and space were well planned. Our family of three followed along and felt this again. The exhibition is very beautiful, especially the look of Little Hamburger and the goldfish looking at each other, so interesting.
