The property is situated in Kitakyushu, Fukuoka Prefecture, a city formed by the merger of five towns and renowned for its modern steel industry. The closest major landmark is the Mojiko Retro district in nearby Moji Ward, a beautifully preserved historic port area with early 20th-century Western-style buildings, shops, and restaurants, offering a glimpse into Japan's Meiji and Taisho eras.
