Fukuoka Tower The Momochi Seaside Park is Fukuoka's modern waterfront area with wide, tree lined streets, futuristic buildings, public parks and no phone or electricity lines above ground. The area's main attractions are centered around Fukuoka Tower and the Hawks Town entertainment complex, which are located about a kilometer apart. Standing 234 meters tall, Fukuoka Tower is far and away the city's highest building. An observation deck is located at 123 meters from where visitors can get a good look of the surrounding city and Hakata Bay. In front of the tower there is an artificial beach with walking paths and a wharf that juts out into the water called Marizon, which has restaurants and shops. A number of interesting attractions are located near the tower, including the Fukuoka City Museum and a Robosquare robot show room. About a 15 minute walk from the tower is the Hawks Town entertainment complex, which is made up of the Yahoo Dome stadium, the Hawks Town Mall and the Fukuoka Hilton. Baseball is Japan's most popular sport, and Kyushu's only professional team plays at the Yahoo Dome stadium. The Hawks Town complex offers accommodation, dining, shopping and a baseball stadium all within a few steps from each other. With about 100 shops, movie theaters and restaurants, a variety of entertainment can be found at the Hawks Town Mall that may also appeal to travelers uninterested in baseball. Yahoo Dome stadium and Fukuoka Hilton hotel Any Questions? Ask them in our question forum.
