Ogi

Ogi lies along the lower Kase River, where the Saga Plain rises toward the wooded foothills of the Tenzan Mountains. The city developed as the castle town of the Ogi branch of the Nabeshima family, which governed this part of Saga during the Edo period. Its best-known specialty is Ogi yōkan, a dense sweet made from azuki beans, sugar and agar; traditional versions are wrapped in bamboo sheath. Ogi brings rice-growing lowlands and mountain approaches together within one municipality, with Saga City nearby across the plain.
