On The Sugar Road from Saga to Fukuoka

The Nagasaki Kaido was an important trade road from the 1630s that connected Nagasaki's port-the only one open to overseas trade in those days-to Kokura in Fukuoka Prefecture. Nicknamed the Sugar Road, the 220-kilometer path carried covetous sugar and their sweet recipes. Aliza Ahmed Khan from Pakistan discovers the distinctive confectionery culture that developed along the route.
