About
位于福冈县的城市，以纺织业和拉面闻名。拥有传统工艺和文化遗产。
Kurume is a city in Fukuoka Prefecture, on the island of Kyushu in southern Japan. It is known for two things that visitors tend to notice first: its textile industry and its ramen noodles. Its name is also written 久留米.
What to see and do
- Textiles and traditional crafts. The city's long association with cloth and weaving makes it a good place to look at the craft side of Japanese textile culture.
- Cultural heritage. Kurume's traditional crafts and cultural history give the city a quieter character than the larger centres nearby.
- Ramen. Local noodles are part of the city's identity, and sampling them is a simple, enjoyable way to spend time here.
Planning a visit
Kurume suits visitors who want to see a smaller Japanese city, away from the busiest tourist routes, and who are interested in crafts and food. It works well as a stop within a wider trip around Kyushu, where Fukuoka Prefecture offers further options for onward travel. Because the details of specific sites, opening times and seasonal events can change, it is worth checking current information before you go.
