Saga Shrine
If you are looking for an impressive shrine, then you should simply visit the Saga Shrine. The shrine is dedicated to the Nabeshima family, the heads of the samurai who ruled the area around Saga before the Meiji Restoration. With two sturdy cannons in front of the shrine depicting the development of advanced weapons in the prefecture, the Saga Shrine is especially dedicated to the tenth lord of the Nabeshima area, Naomasa Nabeshima, and Naohiro, the eleventh lord. After visiting Saga Castle or the Saga Prefecture Museum, the shrine is just a short walk away. A New Year's event will be held at the shrine on December 31 at midnight, with the governor, mayor and other attendees firing a cannon shot to celebrate the year.
