Across the Fukuoka landscape rises Mt. Myouken, a peak reaching 272 meters. It stands on the border between Fukuoka City and the towns of Hisayama. Mt. Myouken, also known as Jinzan, offers a popular hiking route to nearby Mt. Tachibana. The climb is easy, attracting people of all ages. From its summit, hikers enjoy a breathtaking 360-degree view of Fukuoka City and Hakata Bay. This panoramic vista draws crowds on New Year’s Day, eager to witness the first sunrise. A unique feature of Mt. Myouken is its protected virgin forest of native camphor trees, a designated national natural monument. The name “Jinzan” translates to “Mt. Jinzan,” referencing its historical use as a military encampment. During the reign of Emperor Tenchi, soldiers were stationed here to defend against potential invasions from the continent. Today, Mt. Myouken offers not only stunning views but also a glimpse into Japan’s past.
