How to Get to Nakasu Taiyō Movie Theater #
The theatre sits in Nakasu, the island strip between the two channels of the Naka River in central Fukuoka. From Hakata Station, take the Kuko (Airport) subway line one stop to Tenjin (or walk ~20-25 minutes west along Meiji-dori). Nakasu is easiest to reach on foot from Tenjin (about 10-15 minutes). Taxi drivers in the entertainment district will know the theatre simply as “Taiyō eiga-kan.”
