2026 Saga Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in February)

Due to time constraints, we could only make a quick trip to Japan this time. We discovered that Tigerair has flights to Saga, so we decided to check it out. Saga is a rural city with a slow pace of life. The attractions are quite spread out, but the scenery is absolutely stunning! The locals are very friendly, the food is incredibly delicious, and the prices are very affordable! Highly recommend visiting this unique part of Japan! There’s also a shuttle bus from the airport to the city center, which is very convenient. Since our trip was short, we didn’t check in any luggage. Passing through customs at the airport was super quick, and because the airport wasn’t crowded, the entire process was smooth with no need to queue. During our stay, we hardly encountered any foreign tourists (and if we did, they were fellow Taiwanese travelers from our flight). Overall, I highly recommend visiting Saga! I’d love to go back again in the future!

The most important thing you can't miss when you come to Saga is a meal of real Saga beef💫 And Ji Lek's shop really perfectly interprets what melt in your mouth is 😭 I ordered the Saga beef set. The beef is as delicate as ice cream. As soon as I put it on the burning board, I heard the beeping sound, the aroma instantly burst out 🔥 The oil is too foul After frying, the inside still retains the pink and tender meat juice, a mouth really directly melted. The side dishes and seasonings are very particular, each bringing out different layers. The environment is quiet and elegant, the wooden design and soft light make the overall atmosphere very comfortable✨ The waiter was friendly and explained very carefully. The whole dining process had six star service and food quality! It was the most satisfying meal of my trip💗 📍Restaurant Name: Ji Lok (Saga Main Store) 📮Address: 3-9-16 Daichi, Saga, Saga Prefecture ⏰Opening Hours: Lunch 11:30–15:00 | Dinner 17:00–22:00 (by reservation) 💡Recommendation: Lunch Barbecue Set (Lunch Set is half cheaper than the same Dinner Set) #JiLok Main Store #Saga Wagyu #Japanese Food #Saga Beef #Japanese Teppanyaki #Saga Must Eat #Quality Reviews #Japan Free Trip #Photo Restaurant #Traveler's Diary #Eat Good Food

#September2025 During my trip to Saga, I visited Saga Castle and Mifuneyama Rakuen, experiencing distinct yet equally captivating landscapes. Saga Castle, with its magnificent Honmaru Historical Museum and well-preserved castle walls, evokes a sense of stepping back into the Edo period, offering a deeper understanding of local samurai culture and historical background. Exhibits within the castle also clearly showcase Saga's crucial role in Japan's modernization. Arriving at Mifuneyama Rakuen, a feast of natural beauty unfolds before our eyes. The gardens, nestled into the mountainside, offer a changing landscape each season. The lush greenery creates a tranquil atmosphere that invites you to slow down. This trip, while immersing myself in the richness of history, allows me to experience the tranquility of nature, leaving behind unforgettable memories of Saga.

I visited Saga Prefecture to avoid crowded tourist spots!!! Just as Yufuin is in Fukuoka, Saga Prefecture has Ureshino. I visited in the middle of summer, so I didn't stay at a ryokan, but just exploring the town was so much fun (I'll definitely be back in winter...) 🚇 24-hour car rentals for tourists were only 1,000 yen, so I made a reservation in advance from Korea. It's a small town, so transportation isn't that convenient, so I highly recommend renting a car. 📷 Take a picture in front of Siebold Onsen. 🍜 Be sure to try the hot spring tofu set at Soan Yokocho. 💡 As expected from a hot spring area, there was a footbath on the street. I brought a towel and carried it around. 🥰 #JapanTravel #SagaPrefecture #SagaTravel #Ureshino #SeptemberTravelSupport

Name: Stone Oven Bakery Kusukusu 1954 Address: 1 Chome-10-45 Wakamiya, Saga, 849-0926 Japan Opening hours: 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM (Closed on Thursdays) Review: This is a famous bakery with many reviews, so although it is a bit far from my accommodation, I made time to visit in the morning. I visited around 8:30 AM, and I thought it was a local restaurant because I saw locals preparing bread early in the morning! The staff were so friendly and there were so many different types of bread that it was hard to chooseㅎㅎ I bought a lot of salt bread, melon bread, croquette, mini croissants, and sweet potato twist bread. There was a table right next to the store, so I was able to sample a few outside. The breads were delicious, and the mini croissants and sweet potato twists were really addictive!!!! The size was like a fingerstick, so I kept reaching for them and ate more than half of them while walking to the station,,,,ㅎㅎ If you visit here, I recommend trying them at least once! They put them in a bag next to them and price them by weight😋 It was a bakery that had reasonable prices and had the taste, aroma, and atmosphere that neighborhood people go to~ #JapanTravel #OverseasTravel #SagaPrefecture #JapaneseBakery #BreadPilgrimage #JapaneseSmallCityTravel #Japan #SagaTravel

📍New Era Saga Station North Exit Store 🕰️17:00–01:00 📫1 Chome-13-20 Ekimae Chuo, Saga, 840-0801 Japan 💴 Cash accepted / Seat fee charged 🍺There are quite a lot of customers on weekday nights, mostly office workers who come to eat and drink after work. It is very close to Saga Station and can be reached on foot, and the location is convenient. We ordered a lot of skewers and fried food, and the overall performance was good, with only one wrong order. 🍢The chicken skin skewers were grilled very crispy and the sauce was sweet. The fried chicken nuggets had a crispy skin and the meat was quite tender, and it was good to eat with mayonnaise. The Okonomiyaki was freshly made on the iron plate and had a rich flavor. 🍘The chicken and onion skewers were seasoned just right, and the miso tofu was soft and had a strong taste but was quite good with alcohol. I thought the fried fish sausage with seaweed powder was fried vegetables, but it turned out to be surprisingly delicious, crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. 🍟 The fried burdock strips are like a salty version of churrasco, and they are crispy and the salty and fragrant taste goes well with beer. 🫣 I accidentally ordered the dish that looked like sashimi, and it tasted sweet and a little fishy, ​​so I didn't continue eating it. Overall, the food is of high quality and the price is reasonable. It is a place to relax and have a drink. #新時尚佐GA #佐GA酒屋 #烤烤炸物 #啤酒配串 #佐GA美食 #后工作小饮 #佐家日常 #日本旅行 #日本美食

When I came to Saga for a self-guided tour, I discovered this time-honored grilled chicken set meal restaurant, Drive-in Tori Saga, and I immediately decided to go in and have a try! Although Imari is the main restaurant, this time I ate at the branch next to Saga Station. It’s very close and convenient to walk to, and very friendly to independent travelers! Moreover, there are individual seats in the store, so it is no problem for solo travelers to eat. 🍱 Enjoy the meal: Ichiban set meal Get three kinds of essences in one serving, and eat well while being full! ✔ Chicken fried rice: full of aroma, fried with distinct grains, you can’t stop eating it~ ✔ Charcoal grilled chicken: grill it yourself, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and go great with barbecue sauce! ✔ Chicken soup: simple but warming, and super satisfying after eating the whole thing! 🎬 A little happiness for anime fans! Although this Saga branch does not directly appear in the anime "Zombie Land Saga", the store is filled with related peripheral products and character standees! It’s basically a hidden pilgrimage site for fans! If you have followed this animation, you will definitely smile when you see all the characters gathered together in the store (laugh) 📍 Store Information ドライブイン鸟 Saga Store (Saga Station Store) Address: 1F, Cygames Saga Building, 5-9 Sakae-cho, Saga City, Saga Prefecture 🚃 Transportation: About 5 minutes walk from JR Saga Station #Saga Food #Saga Station Food #Grilled Chicken Set Meal #Dragon Bird #DriveIn Bird #Saga Free Travel #Saga Idols Are Legends #Zombi Lando Saga #Anime Fans Spot #Japanese Set Meal #Chicken Lovers Collection #Kyushu Travel Recommendations #Japanese Food Diary #Hidden Attractions #AprilGoodDestinations2025

In the northwestern part of Kyushu, Japan, Saga City is like a tranquil haiku, quietly flowing with the gentleness of time and stories of the past. Here, you'll find a dreamy journey interwoven with art and everyday life. Follow this guide to explore the captivating charm of Saga. Strolling Through Scenic Spots Stepping into the Yoshinogari Historical Park, a relic of the Asuka period, is like stepping into a time corridor. Ancient paddy fields, restored burial mounds, and simple thatched-roof buildings silently narrate the distant history. Walking through it, you can almost see the scenes of people's lives thousands of years ago, and the weight of history washes over you. At Yutoku Inari Shrine, you can experience the unique charm of Japanese shrine culture.

The park offers different scenery in each season, with cherry blossoms in spring and golden ginkgo leaves in autumn. Whenever you visit, you're guaranteed a visual feast. Exploring Culinary Delights Saga beef is a delicacy not to be missed. Step into a traditional yakiniku restaurant and order a serving of tender Saga beef. As it grills over charcoal, the beef gradually changes color, the fat seeps out, and a tantalizing aroma fills the air. The moment you take a bite, the delicate texture and rich meaty flavor burst on your tongue, leaving you in a state of bliss. Karatsu ware is a characteristic porcelain of Saga, and the food served in it has a unique flavor. Savor the exquisite cuisine presented on Karatsu ware dishes and experience the perfect fusion of food and art. And don't forget Saga's wagashi (Japanese sweets), exquisitely shaped and delicately sweet, each bite filled with the craftsman's heart. Transportation Guide To get to Saga City from Fukuoka Airport, you can take the JR train and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Japanese countryside along the way.

🌺🌺 Remember the sweet peas Chihiro carried on the way out with her parents in the Studio Ghibli film *Spirited Away*? Warm and natural.

These everyday flowers in Japan bring people closer to nature and allow them to heal in nature.🌺🌺 🌈🌈🌈🌈Great places to explore Japanese flowers 📍Ibaraki Prefecture/Hitachi Seaside Park—Nemophila Approximately 4.2 hectares of Miharashi Hill is covered with about 5.3 million delicate blue nemophila flowers, which look even more brilliant against the azure sky.

😂 Still going to Kyoto or Nara to see the autumn leaves with the crowds? 😎 As someone who's been to Japan more than 10 times, I really recommend some lesser-known destinations. - ❤️ Reasons to go 1⃣ Direct flights (compared to landing in a big city and then transferring to a JR or bus, it's better in terms of both time and experience) 2⃣ Less than 1% of the visitors of popular tourist cities. With fewer people, you can really enjoy the scenery instead of being pushed along by the crowd. 3⃣ The autumn leaves are just as beautiful. The short walk from the airport bus to the hotel is lined with ginkgo trees that blend in perfectly with the street. It's beautiful! - ❤️ The photos were taken near Saga City Hall, where the area is full of ginkgo trees. We met some elementary school students on their way home, and they were so friendly and cute!
