Ohori Park is a city park in the center of Fukuoka with a large pond in the middle. There is a more than two kilometer long hiking trail around the pond that invites you to jog and stroll along the water.

Ohori means in the Japanese moat, the pond in the middle of the park was once part of the moat system of the neighboring Fukuoka Castle. The park was built between 1926 and 1929. In the middle of the pond there are three islands that are connected by elegant stone bridges.

This place used to be the outer moat of Fukuoka Castle. After the castle was abandoned, the government proposed a renovation plan to fill the moat. However, she finally decided to develop the area into a park and include the moat. The park was opened in 1929. The park is said to have been modeled on the Western Lake of China, a famous sight in Zhejiang Province.
