Asuwayama Park

Reviewed By KlapauciusJapan

Roads connect various areas on Asuwayama, making an interesting park near Fukui station. The park is walkable, though all paths are roads so sometimes need to avoid cars. The main attraction is the zoo, which is free to enter, though closed during winter. Tripadvisor still shows it at the incorrect location.

Dinosaur Station at Fukui Station

Reviewed By worcesterwoman22

Life size dinosaur models in a landscaped area. The models move and roar. Short descriptions in English so that you know what is being interpreted by the display. Worth a look if you are near the station and a good photo opportunity.

Kitanosho Castle Park

Reviewed By KlapauciusJapan

An interesting place with a shrine and statues, and old castle wall/moat visible. Now even more interesting thanks to English explanations of the history being added. Well worth a visit.

Prism Fukui

Shops, mostly selling Fukui souvenir snacks/food, a good cafe (Colorado), and some restaurants, and a supermarket, inside Fukui station. There's a small shop that sells Fukui and Japanese style souvenirs. Worth a look if in or around the station.

Fukui Castle Ruins

Reviewed By KlapauciusJapan

Worth a visit for what you can see of the history of Fukui - despite much of it being erased by building the Fukui Prefectural government offices where the castle used to be. The views around the moat and old wall are very nice, especially when the weather is good, or the cherry blossoms are out. You can walk around the ruins, go up on the walls for some different views, and find some historically significant things such as the 'Fukui no i', a well which apparently became the name of the city and prefecture, Fukui.
