#FritaviWinter I went to Feliche in Saga Prefecture! The atmosphere of the shop is nice, and I think it's a shop that anyone can feel comfortable in. All the cakes are stylish, cute and delicious, so I highly recommend them! They also have cakes with other fruits besides strawberry, and the tarts are delicious. If you're looking for a delicious Italian restaurant in Saga Prefecture, why not try it? 📍Address: 358-2 Yoshida, Yoshinogari-cho, Kanzaki-gun, Saga Prefecture, 842-0031

On November 15, 2019, Wof and his mother joined the YOKOSO Japan Tour's one-day tour of Kyushu's beautiful red leaves, visiting four attractions in Saga Prefecture, namely Kunen-an, Nihiyama Shrine, Mifuneyama Rakuen, and the Forest of Environmental Art. In the morning, we went to Kunen-an and Nibisan Shrine. Jiunian'an is only open during a limited period in spring and autumn each year, three days in spring and nine days in autumn. The opening dates in 2019 are from November 15th to 23rd. Wof and his mother visited Jiu Nian Temple on the first day of its opening. Perhaps because the weather was not very cold, many maple leaves had not yet turned red. Kunenan was originally the villa of Saga's great industrialist Yotaro Itami. It took nine years to build from 1900, so it was named Kunenan. After visiting Kunen-an, walk to the nearby Nibisan Shrine. Nibisan Shrine is a place that worships the gods of mountains and agriculture and has a long history. To be honest, I was a little disappointed with Kunenan. I found the Nibisan Shrine more attractive. #JapanTravel #JapanKyushu #KyushuAttractions #JapanRedLeaves #KyushuRedLeaves #Kunen-an #NibisanShrine
