Fukuoka

The design of Fukuokas manhole cover is modern and abstract. It is meant to convey the dynamism of Fukuoka. The design incorporates buildings, birds, and a yacht.

It was the winning design of over 700 submitted for a competition.

Fukuoka is actually my favorite city in Japan. It feels quite different from all the others. A little more open and cosmopolitan.

It has lots of interesting architecture as well as history that goes back much further than many places in Japan due to its connection with the mainland of Asia....
