Parks / gardens

Higata Yoka Park sits on the southern coast of Saga prefecture, just by the Ariake Sea. The park was made in 2004, and has some huge play equipment, like the giant slides and the grass-ski area. There is also an Edo period-inspired house, and inside is a museum with exhibits about the creatures living in the Ariake Sea. In November, the dark-red shichimenso flowers cover the coastal area.
