It was during my stay in Saga when I found unintentionally this beautiful shrine. It was raining outside. I was taking a cup of hot coffee and reading Saga tourist leaflets. Then the rain stopped for a while and I decided to have a short walk and visit Saga Shrine among other attractions in the city. But once there what caught my attention was Matsubara Shrine and its huge lanterns painted in red. I couldn’t find much information about this shrine. There’s nothing written about it in any tourist leaflet I’ve got and not much written on internet neither. Anyway, if you are in Saga, it’s worth a look.
