門司港は、明治時代には中国との貿易や、九州と本州との人と物流の玄関口として栄えましたが、1942年に関門トンネルが開業すると、門司港は時代に取り残されてしまいました。その門司港ですが、1995年に門司港レトロとして、古い洋風のビルを復興させ、観光地に生まれ変わっています。

Moji is located to the north end of Kyushu Island, facing to "Honshu", the Main Island of Japan, across the Kanmon Strait. This area became the center stage of the history of Japan twice.

The first time was in 1185. The battle of Dannoura happened at the Kanmon Strait.
This battle was one of epoch-making events in Japan.
As the results of the battle, the aristocracy finished and the Kamakura Age (1185 - 1333) , which is the era of the feudal government started.

From the Moji Port, you will see Shimonoseki City, which is located to the other side of the Kanmon Strait.

If you walk to the Mojiko Retro-Highmart from the Former Moji Customs, you see "Dalian Friendship Memorial".

On the thirty-first floor of the Mojiko Retro-highmart, the observation deck is located.
You will see the Kanmon Strait and Shimonoseki City across the strait.

The below picture shows the view to the south from the observation deck of the Mojiko Retro-highmart.
The view was spectacular.
