Accommodation in Fukuoka is also significantly cheaper than Tokyo, which helps to reduce the overall cost of your Japanese study. And living costs are low too, with restaurant meals with drink included available for just 500 yen ($6) from restaurants all over the city – the so-called ワンコイン (one coin) plate. Save your money, come to Fukuoka!
