Kyushu

Kyushu is the southernmost of the large islands which form Japan. It was the gateway for Asian and European traders.


A bridge leads to Hirado Island	where we enjoyed the rocky coastline.

	Kyushu is famous for: Hakata dolls, hand-painted fine porcelain,

"spaghetti" porcelain (displayed on a tray from Hakone)	and blue and white pottery.
