  • Former Sansho Bank
    Travel / Tourism
    Saga Saga-shi Yanagimachi 3-12
    This building was constructed in 1882 to handle the banking operations of Sanshosha company stores. It became Saga City property in 1998 when the city bought up the land. The exterior has an arched kirizuma gabled roof, copper-plated windows, and stucco walls; the chandelier stucco ornamentation on the second-floor ceiling sets it apart from ordinary houses. It was designated as an Important Cultural Property of the city in 1999.

  • Former Koga Family Residence
    Travel / Tourism
    Saga Saga-shi Yanagimachi 3-15
    Built in 1884 as the residence of Zenpei Koga, who founded and served as president of the Koga Bank, it left Koga's hands after the dissolution of the bank and was used as a ryotei (Japanese-style restaurant) from 1954, after which it became the property of the city and was designated an important cultural property by Saga City in 1995. It is said to have followed the style of samurai residences, as it has an irimoya-zukuri roof instead of the gabled roofs typical of town houses along highways.

    Saga Ogi-shi Ogimachi Ikenoue 3999-4 Surrounding area
    About 5,000 plum trees burst into bloom from late February to early March across the Mt. Ushio area. During the season, plum growers and local residents in the Sanri area hold a plum blossom festival every year. At that time there's a stage with various events, sales of specialty products made with plums, and other activities. It's held at the center of Ushinoo Plum Grove; there's a 20-car parking lot, but during the festival, traffic is restricted, and a shuttle bus operates.

    Saga Saga-shi Kawaharamachi

    佐賀藩最後の藩主・鍋島直大が戊辰戦争の戦死者を祀ったことに端を発し、佐賀の乱などの戦死者も合祀している神社。当時、招魂社は東京、京都、秋田にしか存在しなかった。大きな鳥居が東向きと南向きの両方に建っており、威厳を感じます。

    Saga Saga-shi Kawasoemachi Hayatsuetsu 399-3

    三重津海軍所の近くです。道は狭いですが、この神社自体にも車で行けます。由来を読むと福岡市の志賀島にある志賀神社から来ているものでした。意外な発見でした。

    Saga Pref. Sagashi Mizugae 1-1-13

    曹洞宗の仏教寺院。16世紀末佐賀藩初代藩主鍋島直茂公が龍造寺隆信の菩提寺として、佐賀城の鬼門に建立した由緒を持つそうです。佐賀藩主は龍造寺家に配慮をしてこの寺院に200石を与えていました。大伽藍でしたが、明治期の廃仏毀釈を機に衰退。隆信公の墓所も移転。その後、ようやく復興し往時をしのばせるまでになったとのこと。風格を感じる山門でした。

    Saga Saga-shi Tojin 2-chome 7-5

    This small temple is located behind Saga Bank. There is no indication, and it is maybe a little bit difficult to find. There is a tomb of Sagara Tomoyasu, who made a great contribution to the...

    Saga Saga-shi Gofukumotomachi 5-18

    浄土宗の仏教寺院で旧長崎街道がお寺の西側を通ります。16世紀末の創建で、佐賀城の築城の際、参道を変えたことで、本堂の向きと山門の向きが異なり、正面がわかりにくい。境内に児童養護施設 佐賀清光園が併設されているのも珍しい。

    Saga Saga-shi Otakara 1-5-62

    臨済宗の仏教寺院です。号は麟應山。敷地の形が風変わりで門柱は面した道路に向かって直角ですが、その道路がちょうど右へ90度カーブしていて、門柱がＲの中ほどにあり入口から山門、本堂が45度という半端な角度。Ｒのついた曲線道路は城下町由来のものとは思われないので、なぜ門柱と本堂を一直線にしなかったのでしょうか。敷地の狭さから直角に位置する寺院は珍しくありませんが、入口でここまで個性を発揮するお寺は珍しい...

    佐賀市久保田の香椎神社は、安元3年ごろ、この地の地頭窪田因幡守藤原利常が、久保田村矢櫃の森という所に創建しましたが、天明ごろ現在地へ社地替えとなったと伝えられています。 境内の四脚門は、県の重要文化財となっていて、神社境内に建つ1間1戸の四脚門で、神門あるいは楼門と呼ばれています。 自然石を用いた礎石に角柱を建て、その柱に頭貫を通し、三斗、実肘木を組み、その上に桁を置いた簡単な構架となっており、屋...

Saga Areas

around-area-map

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.
