destinations that you don’t want to miss while you stay at the Washington Hotel Plaza.


Yatai village in Nakasu is synonymous with Hakata, Fukuoka!



Due to the strict restrictions for food vendors in Japan, you rarely encounter high concentration of food stalls (Yataigai) like in the Nakasu district in Hakata. Have fun in Yataigai that is a dreamland for epicureans all over Japan!

You will find a wide variety of delicious foods in the village, such as grilled skewed pork ribs and hot pot dumplings (gyoza) cooked on a piping hot griddle. They are open late at night, so why not have a beer and sample some local cuisine?
