Maidashi

At the end of the Sengoku period, after Kyūshū Campaign, Toyotomi Hideyoshi settled by the sea shore, and ordered Sen no rikyu to hold a tea party.

During the Edo period, there were many domestic expenditures which made Mage-mono (曲物) and roofing panel and Sanpo, ritual article, to be ordered out by Hakozaki-gu.

There is a shopping mall called Yume taun Hakata (ゆめタウン博多, which means 'Hakata Dream Town' in Japanese),[7] which attracts many people from surrounding areas during holidays.

[10][11][12] Maidashi ryokuchi is not only a park but also a historic site which gives the citizens opportunities to learn the modern history of Hukuoka since the Meiji era.

But later a landfill site was created and now views of the sea are left only around the Osiroi hama (お潮井浜) of Hakozaki shrine,[14] and an extensive prospect of Hakata Bay.

Nowadays as a fabulous view of the sea is to be a key selling point, some high-rise condominiums, targeted for high-income class, have been constructed.
