Nakasu Neon Street

Nakasu is one of Japan's three greatest pleasure districts, ranking alongside Tokyo's Kabukicho and Osaka's Kitashinchi, with approximately 2,000 dining establishments crowded together as a vibrant night spot. A diverse array of bars, clubs, izakayas, and snacks gather here, and the neon scenery reflected in the Naka River symbolizes Hakata's night. The local way to spend an evening is to have a drink at a Nakasu food stall and then enjoy a cocktail at a bar. On weekends, the district thrums with visitors, and its vibrant energy continues late into the night.
