Kakurin-tei

Kakurin-tei (隔林亭) is a Japanese tea house located in the grounds of Kōno Park, Saga City, Japan.

Lord Naomasa was recognized as one of the most successful and powerful leaders of Japan in his time, and it is said that he relaxed from the rigors of politics at this tea house while composing poetry.

Shortly before the Meiji Restoration when the clan system was abolished, the Kakurintei was transferred to the hands of Kazuma Nakano, a family retainer.

Reconstruction was finally approved as a part of the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the establishment of Saga City as a municipality in 1989.

Reborn as the Heisei Kakurintei, this famous building carries on the glorious intent of Lord Naomasa and will continue to be beloved by the people of Saga.
