- Fukui Fukui-shi Kidonouchicho 28-37
- A castle town streetscape dating back to the warring states period, when the Asakura clan ruled over Echizen. The samurai residences used by the Asakura clan and their chief retainers have been rebuilt. This is included as part of the Ichijodani Asakura Family Historic Ruins site. It has been designated as a National Special Historic Site. The houses were restored based on unearthed cornerstones and foundations and give the idea of what houses were like back in that period. They have been used as shooting locations for various commercials. On the grounds is a spot where you can rent and dress in kimono and you can walk the townscape wearing the kimono.

- Fukui Pref. Fukuishi Tsukumo 1-chome
- The original Tsukumo Bridge was famous for its usual half-wood, half-stone construction, with the northern half being made from wood, and the southern half being made from stone. Also known by names such as Kitanosho Ohashi Bridge, the bridge has historical ties to Shibata Katsuie. Built after Katsuie took command of Kitanosho Castle, it survived for 330 years until it was replaced in 1909.

- Fukui Fukui-shi Chuo 3
- An area on the right bank of Asuwa River in Fukui City that runs from Saiwai-bashi Bridge, past Sakura-bashi Bridge, until Tsukumo-bashi Bridge. The neighborhood prospered as being the river access for nearby Fukui Castle. Around 1955, after Fukui Castle was demolished, the area changed to a high-class restaurant district and bustling with geisha entertainers. In current times a number of the restaurant have been taken over and replaced with classic townhome themed cafes and izakaya pubs. It's become a neighborhood where you can appreciate the classic feel of the past-that-was while enjoying new exciting experiences.

Fukui Areas
Northeast of Kyoto, the ancient Tojinbo Cliffs separate Fukui prefecture from the Sea of Japan in a stretch of land well worth exploring. Water sports and seaside delicacies are available in abundance as the spectacular rugged coastline flattens down into beaches to the west of the prefecture, while inland, Fukui is home to Zen Buddhist temples and historic ruins.
