The principal cities are Moji, Kokura (pop.. 38,000). and Wakamatsu (pop. 57,326) on the north; Fukuoka (Pop. 228,290), with which is included the port of Hakata, and Nagasaki on the west; and Kagoshima (pop. 137,232) on the south. On the east coast lies the favourite watering place of Beppu (pop. 43,076). The island is encircled with rail- ways, with some breaks, but the centre is still unopened to railway traffic.
