Ohori Koen (Ohori Park)

Ohori Koen (Ohori Park)

Ohori Koen ,also known as Ohori Park, is a great place to exercise! It’s a great place to walk, jog, roller blade, skateboard, or cycle.  The distance around the park is 2.2 kilometers, which is perfect for a nice stroll or a jog.  Just about all hours of the day you can find people exercising at the park. Part of the path that goes around the park is made of a softer material so it’s a little easier on your joints.  I guess the best way to describe Ohori Koen is that it’s Fukuoka’s “Central Park”.

While exercising at Ohori Koen you can expect to see:

  • People playing instuments
  • Freestyle BMX riders
  • Skate boarders doing tricks
  • Dance groups practicing
  • Couples enjoying a romantic view
  • High School students hanging out
  • Roller bladers doing tricks

There is no excuse not to get over to Ohori Koen and get a little exercise
