Highlighting the site&#8217;s significant value, they are set to request the city for its full preservation. Discovered last year at a planned construction site in Moji District, the remnants include red bricks and the foundation of an engine shed, dating back to the station&#8217;s 1891 inauguration. While the city plans to relocate part of the relics, ICOMOS advocates for a comprehensive preservation strategy, urging a reconsideration of partial relocation decisions in favor of more extensive investigations to inform the overall plan for the area. <strong>Source:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20240222\/5010023494.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NHK<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/fnn_mojiko-unesco-nhk-screenshot_2024_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C788&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"UNESCO Advisory Body Inspects Remnants of Historical Moji Station\" width=\"1400\" height=\"788\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-160252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/fnn_mojiko-unesco-nhk-screenshot_2024_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/fnn_mojiko-unesco-nhk-screenshot_2024_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/fnn_mojiko-unesco-nhk-screenshot_2024_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/fnn_mojiko-unesco-nhk-screenshot_2024_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &#038; Kyushu news and events in English.
