Tour Itinerary

1. Arita Ceramic Park
Begin your morning at the renowned Arita Ceramic Park, the heart of Japan’s porcelain heritage. Explore beautifully designed European-style buildings that house intricate ceramic exhibits, and even try your hand at pottery-making. This location blends artistic elegance with immersive hands-on activities—perfect for photography and cultural enrichment.

2. Takeo Onsen Street
Continue your journey to the historic Takeo Onsen, known for its 1,300-year-old hot spring culture. Stroll down a nostalgic street lined with traditional architecture, quaint shops, and local delicacies. Though there’s no time for a full bath, the area offers a peaceful atmosphere and a glimpse into Japan’s traditional spa town life.

3. Yutoku Inari Shrine
Visit one of Japan’s most significant Inari shrines. Yutoku Inari Shrine is famed for its vibrant red torii gates and hillside architecture. Walk along scenic paths and corridors, take in the spiritual ambiance, and make a wish for peace and good fortune. This is an ideal spot for those interested in cultural heritage and spirituality.

4. Oo Shrine
A hidden gem in Saga, Oo Shrine is uniquely positioned by the sea. The shrine’s torii gate stands in the water, creating a mystical and photogenic landscape, especially during high tide and sunset. This serene and lesser-known shrine offers a tranquil and unforgettable visual experience.

5. Strawberry Picking Experience
End the day with a relaxing visit to a local strawberry farm, where you can enjoy picking and tasting fresh, juicy Saga strawberries. Known for their size and sweetness, these strawberries are a seasonal treat that adds a delicious conclusion to your journey.
