Located in the southern island of Kyushu, Saga is known across the country for ceramics, especially the Arita, Imari and Karatsu styles which have been prized by tea ceremony masters for centuries. Hop on a tour to the yearly ceramics fair and market! Niji-no-matsubara (Rainbow Pine Grove), a Japanese black pine forest arching along Karatsu Bay is another must-see for visitors to the area. A fun day trip from nearby Fukuoka, fans of porcelain and ceramic art will love Saga.
