Everything about the Yamakasa and their districts
This Kazariyama is built by Hakata Station and attracts people to the attachet malls during the time of the festival. It has been built there since 1972 and also serves as an indroduction to the festival for anyone who just arrived at the station.
When Hakata Stations new building was opened in 2011, the Kazariyama was displayed in front of the new building. While, before, the Kazariyama could only be viewed from ground level, now the 5th floor veranda allows you to see this Kazariyama from above.
