Japanese in Fukuoka City
Fukuoka City, the capital of Kyushu, Japan's southernmost island, is far off the tourist radar – making it the perfect place for full-on Japanese immersion. Learn the language at Genki Japanese and Culture School (www.genkijacs.com), where traditional and pop-culture courses are offered. The school arranges host-family stays and extracurricular activities, but you can opt to explore local attractions – temples, museums, and nearby beach – on your own. And while you won’t get to practice your Japanese, it’s easy to tack on a side trip to South Korea, just a three-hour ferry ride away.
