The fine and elaborate lines are hand-painted one by one while using breathing techniques for accuracy. He still faithfully lore the tradition of dyeing by Kuresu and Nabeshima ware, which used only the yellow, red, and green of the top paintings to offer to the Shōgunya family and as tools for the Dōdaimyō. In addition to representative designs of Nabeshima ware, there are also works with modern designs.

Changchun celadon kiln

Masamoto grilling the Nabeshima celadon, which has been handed down since the time of the feudal government, when the government kiln was placed. The celadon, which is made by digging out and then adding a refined glaze and baked from the celadon ore that is produced only in Okawachiyama, is a valuable item that can only be obtained from the Changchun kiln alone. The simple form is an insatiable and graceful tone that is calm around the light. You can enjoy the unique taste of this celadon.

It is popular among women located in the back of Okawachiyama. There are many simple designs that make use of white background because they want to provide something that can be used on a daily basis. Among them, the deformation series, which is made thin and light, is well received for its familiarity when it is held in the hand and the variety of types from cup to platter.

A roadside station that stands along National Route 207, facing the Ariake Sea. The "Tarafukukan", which sells specialty products of Tara, also has an abundance of fresh vegetables, as well as fruits brought from neighboring orchards. In particular, tangerines in winter are a specialty of Tara, and rare rare species are also available. Processed products such as honwasabi and wasabi dressings from Tara-cho are also well received. In the "Fisherman's Hall", Haisin Champon is popular. For souvenirs, the nori of the Ariake Sea, which boasts the highest production in Japan, is recommended.

Daishi Shrine, Uminaka Torii

Ooshima Shrine, which on the map is located on a straight line connecting Mt. Tara and Okinoshima. It is reminiscent of the natural philosophy that the main industries of Tara-cho, agriculture and fishing (mountain and sea), are interrelated. The underwater torii is popular among tourists as a mysterious shooting spot because you will not get tired of seeing the scenery that changes in various ways due to morning, evening, moonlight, starry sky, and tide.

Roadside Station

Roadside station stands in a rural landscape in Shiraishi, Saga Prefecture. "Mongo Mongo Market", a bright and spacious direct-to-product store, is filled with a wide array of locally-picked seasonal produce and confectionery, pickles and handmade processed goods. The restaurant "Tannaka Cafe 360" offers full taste of dishes using Shiraishi-cho's specialty and seasonal vegetable dishes. I am glad that you can eat while enjoying the Shiraishi Plain of the town at the observation restaurant.
