Karatsu City
Karatsu was once a castle town and bustling coal port. Karatsu Castle is the symbol of the town.
The former Takatori Residence and former Karatsu Bank symbolize the development of the coal industry. One can see exquisite floats lined up for the Karatsu Kunchi Festival at the Hikiyama Exhibition Hall.
The rustic look of Karatsu-yaki pottery is beloved by many.
