Explore the Fukuoka City Ruins in Setouchi, Okayama, a site steeped in history as a once-thriving commercial hub along the Sanyo Road during the Kamakura period. Known as 'Fukuoka City' in medieval times, it was a bustling marketplace depicted in the Ippen Saint Emblems. Today, visitors can discover remnants of this prosperous past, including historical buildings and the nearby Yoshii River. The site is easily accessible near the Bizen Fukuoka's Yoshii River embankment. Consider visiting on the fourth Sunday of the month to experience the 'Bizen Fukuoka Market,' a modern revival of the historical market.
