Located on the grounds of Miyajidake Shrine in Fukutsu, Fukuoka, the Miyajidake Shrine Minka Village offers a glimpse into Japan's architectural past. This open-air museum features relocated traditional houses from various regions, including gassho-style farmhouses and elevated storehouses. Visitors can explore these historic structures and enjoy the surrounding natural landscape, including a beautiful iris garden and a pond with koi and turtles. The village is easily accessible by bus from Fukuma Station and provides a peaceful contrast to the bustling shrine. It's a great spot to combine cultural exploration with a relaxing stroll through nature, especially beautiful during the iris blooming season. A small adjacent zoo adds to the appeal for families.
