    Saga Pref. Sagashi Jounai
    "A park located in Jonai, Saga City. Built on the grounds of Saga Castle, facilities include the Saga Castle History Museum, the Saga Prefectural Museum, an art museum, library, and gymnasium. A walking and running course follows the moat which encircles three sides of the grounds. In spring, cherry trees also bloom along the moat. In recent years, the ""Mizukagami Project"", in which several hundred lanterns are floated on the moat at night, has also been held at the park."

    市内にある城郭の址、入り口の鯱の門は当時を偲ばせる重要文化財で見応えあります。 天守の石垣は見れますが、その他の建造物は残っていません。 駐車場、入城料ともに無料です。 城内の本丸歴史観は無料ですが、結構中身の濃い面白い展示館です。

    古湯温泉に泊った時、１時間位の空き時間で利用しました。ここは山の中に施設や公園が複数点在しており、私達家族は北山森クラブという木の実で簡単な工作ができる所を利用しました。同施設には他にも木で作ったピタゴラスイッチみたいな遊び道具もあり、家族３人（うち１人は3歳）とも楽しめました。

Away from the fast-paced cities of mainland Japan, Kyushu’s Saga prefecture offers quaint towns and cities known for their traditional crafts, particularly ceramics. Rich in kaolin (a type of clay), Saga became the homeland of Arita ware, a delicate, decorative porcelain that is now celebrated worldwide and can be discovered in the towns of Arita, Imari, and Karatsu.
