At a Glance
Sakuranobaba Johsaien is a visitor complex at the foot of Kumamoto Castle in Chuo Ward, Kumamoto City. It opened in March 2011 on the site of a former prefectural swimming pool, to present Kumamoto's history and culture and to promote local products.
Three parts make up the complex. The shopping and dining street, Sakura-no-Koji, groups 23 shops and restaurants serving regional dishes and specialties from Kumamoto. Wakuwakuza is an exhibition facility with video screenings and events about Kumamoto Castle, and a general tourist information office stands alongside. Together they serve as a rest stop and a starting point for a walk around the castle grounds.
