The Stall "Yatai"
The nice place of the city (Fukuoka City)
 Tenjin, the center of Fukuoka is going to change by a series of big projects greatly. The building shown by a right photograph is one of the big projects. When the sun begins to set west, the stalls appear on the street corners from somewhere or other, where many pedestrians are walking. The familiar shop curtains are fluttering at a regular place as if beckoning regular visitors. It looks as if nothing happened today. There are about 230 stalls in Fukuoka City. The 80% of those are concentrated in Tenjin & Nakasu district.
