About This Tour

Enjoy a walking tour around the Karatsu Port area! Explore the town, including a mansion with exquisite ranma carvings and gorgeous ceiling paintings, and Karatsu Castle, which faces one of the most beautiful pine groves in Japan. Afterward, stop by a sake bar featuring Karatsu ware. Karatsu-yaki can also be purchased at the store next to the bar and will be a wonderful memory.
