佐賀城本丸歴史館
Castle ruins at the center of traditional jokamachi (castle town) that shaped regional politics for centuries.
Saga City is considered a jokamachi, or castle town, as much of its history revolved around Saga Castle and the individuals who ruled from within. To this day, there's a historic presence there, as well as within the surrounding area. There are remnants of a very different Japan that existed not that far back as the abolishment of the feudal domain system didnt occur until 1871.
