HITA LOCAL SOUVENIORS, Pottery, Food, Geta, and…

Tenryo Yaki is one of the local pottery in Hita, and is famous for gracious coloring and design, using maple leaves (Craftmen use real maple leaves).


Variety of dishes for lots of use.


Hita is also famous for making good GETA !


Decoration for New Year.


Plum jam, Plum pickles. (Hita produces good plums!)
The green one is YUZU KOSHO. YUZU is a Japanese citrus fruit with nice sour scent, while KOSHO means pepper. YUZU KOSHO add wonderful flavour (and scent ) to KYUSHU FOOD, such as TETSUNABE-GYOZA, MOTSU-NABE, MEN-CHANKO, MIZU-TAKI, YAKI-TORI, or simply to TOFU. And I especially recommend this YUZU KOSHO for your souvenior :>
