One of the parks of Fukuoka City boasts scenic views of the shoreline. With views of Noko Island to the north, and a wide expansive lawn, on the weekends you can see families, groups of walkers, and children having fun on the play equipment. Odo Shrine is located in the center of the park, and it is said in the Nihon Shoki historical accounts that Odo Daijingu Shrine was the sacred place where the deity Izanagi undertook ritual purification.
