Ohori Park in Ohori, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka. A big central lake park with a loop path for scooting, a large free playground, ducks and swans, and swan pedal-boats out on the water.

Why children love it: A big central lake park with a loop path for scooting, a large free playground, ducks and swans, and swan pedal-boats out on the water.

Honest drawbacks: Mostly a relaxed open-air stroll rather than an 'attraction', and the boats and Japanese Garden are the only paid extras.
