Okinawa Southern Guide: Best Spots & Food near Naha Airport (Senaga Island, Sefa-utaki, Gyokusendo)

沖繩•南部okinawaSouth

Contents

Land and go play — southern Okinawa

After hours in the air you finally land at Naha Airport — and the first stop is still a blank. Southern Okinawa is only a 15–40 minute drive away, with a few places that catch people off guard: cliff-top coastline, a World Heritage site you walk straight into, and a sunset island where planes skim overhead.

This is one of the parts of the island with the fewest tour-bus crowds and the most surprises per hour. You don’t detour from Naha, so it fits the first day after you land or the last few hours before your flight without burning the clock on transfers.

This guide collects the southern Okinawa stops worth the time, with suggested stay lengths, Mapcodes, ticket prices and small cautions, so a short window still goes somewhere.

Okinawa South Must-Visit Spots Quick Notes

■ Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace: Get off the plane and go! Okinawa’s most beautiful check-in island – Senaga Island

If your flight lands in the evening, heading straight to Senaga Island from the airport is the most accurate choice. Umikaji Terrace, a white Mediterranean-style shopping mall, is built on the hillside, with layered staircases and azure sea views. It looks like a Greek Santorini when you take a photo. What’s more special is that, because it’s adjacent to the airport runway, you can sit on the patio and drink coffee, and occasionally, planes will fly low over your head – this view can’t be found in Okinawa. In the evening, the sun sets slowly over the sea, and the entire island is dyed golden orange. Even if you don’t buy anything, just standing here is worth the ticket price.

■ Sefa-utaki: Enter the sacred precinct of the Ryukyu Kingdom – World Heritage Sefa-utaki

Sefa-utaki is the highest level of sacred site in the Ryukyu Kingdom era, and the most unmissable World Heritage site in Okinawa South. Stepping into the limestone temple in the forest, the air becomes quiet, and two giant triangular rocks intersect to form a natural arch, with light passing through the gaps, making you hold your breath. As you walk deeper, you can also gaze at the Kuhama Island, which is considered a sacred island. This is not a typical tourist spot – it’s a truly sacred place where locals come to worship, please walk quietly and feel the tranquility that has lasted for hundreds of years.

■ Chinmienmihama Park: Okinawa South’s secret paradise – Chinmienmihama Park 360-degree sea view

Chinmienmihama Park stands on the tip of the cape protruding into the East China Sea, almost surrounded by the sea on three sides. When the weather is clear, the blue tropical sea water, the floating Kuhama Island in the distance, and the gentle sea breeze fill your senses. There is no admission fee, no crowd control, and the parking lot is nearby, making it an ideal place to arrange a mid-point for visiting Sefa-utaki before and after. It’s also a popular spot for watching the ‘first sunrise’ on New Year’s Day.

■ Gyokusendo・Okinawa World Culture Park: A shocking experience in the underground world – Gyokusendo Limestone Cave All-in-One Guide

Gyokusendo is Japan’s second-longest limestone cave, spanning over 5 kilometers. The approximately 800-meter-long accessible route is already breathtaking. As you enter the cave, the temperature drops and the light is dim, with various shapes of stalactites and stalagmites hanging from the ceiling. The entire journey takes around 40 to 60 minutes. Pair it with the ‘Okinawa World Cultural Kingdom’ outside, and you can enjoy traditional drum performances and Ryukyu Kingdom street scenery. On bad weather days, this is the perfect indoor backup plan in southern Okinawa.

■ Ashibinaa Outlet Mall: Last-minute shopping before your flight! Okinawa’s only outlet is right next to the airport

This is probably the highest ‘CP value’ last stop in all of Okinawa – Ashibinaa Outlet is just a 15-minute drive from Naha Airport, making it the only outlet mall on the main island of Okinawa. The semi-outdoor shopping street with a southern island resort atmosphere is very comfortable to walk around, with over 100 international brands and many popular styles with discounts that will get your heart racing. It’s recommended to arrange a visit here after checking in and before your flight. Don’t forget to bring your JCB card to the visitor center to collect a discount coupon, which can be used at over 30 stores with additional discounts.

Mapcode	*33 067 72165**

A Mangrove Forest in the City

Located on the border of Naha and Tomigusuku, the Manko Waterbird and Wetland Center is one of Okinawa's most complete mangrove wetlands. Walking along the boardwalks surrounded by Kandelia and Avicennia trees, it is easy to forget you are still in the city. Despite being only a few kilometers from Naha Airport, it feels like another world.

Migratory Birds, Fiddler Crabs, and Mudskippers

Every autumn and winter, large numbers of migratory birds arrive, including the rare black-faced spoonbill, making Manko a premier birdwatching spot in Okinawa. The center provides high-magnification telescopes and interactive exhibits, making it suitable for families. Outside of the migratory season, low tide is the best time to visit. The mudflats come alive with fiddler crabs and mudskippers, a sight rarely seen at other tourist attractions. Checking the daily tide schedule before your visit is highly recommended.

A Ramsar Site with Historical Significance

Despite the name "Manko," which translates to "Manko Lake," it is actually a tidal mudflat formed at the confluence of the Kokuba and Noha Rivers. In 1999, Manko was registered as a Wetland of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention, a rare example of a wetland located in an urban area with international recognition. Historically, this area was a vital hub for water transport and irrigation during the Ryukyu Kingdom era. Today, the center's mangrove tours and biological observation activities continue to foster the connection between the local community and the land.

Free Admission: Perfect for Arrival or Departure Days

Admission to the Manko Waterbird and Wetland Center is free, including access to the exhibits and the mangrove boardwalks. Located near Naha Airport and Onoyama Park, it is an easy addition to your itinerary on your arrival day or before heading to the outer islands, requiring less than half a day to visit.

💡 Visiting Tips

Check the daily low tide schedule to see the most activity from fiddler crabs and mudskippers. The birdwatching season is from October to March, when black-faced spoonbills are most likely to be spotted. Telescopes are available for loan at the center; no need to bring your own equipment.

Tabelog Rating	3.47 (Ranked #1 Shokudo in the Naha/Tomigusuku area)

A long-standing tofu specialist, just 15 minutes from the airport

Kaiyo Shokudo in Nakachi, Tomigusuku, is a local institution beloved by both long-time residents and independent travelers. The restaurant has been making its own tofu since it opened, and they continue to hand-craft it in the kitchen daily until it sells out. Okinawa's "island tofu" differs from supermarket varieties; it is firmer, rich in soy flavor, and carries a natural hint of saltiness—the foundation for most of the dishes on the menu. The interior retains a Showa-era atmosphere with tatami seating and handwritten menus, complemented by the warm, nostalgic service of the staff. With generous portions and affordable prices, this is the perfect spot to experience authentic, everyday Okinawan home cooking.

Must-try dishes: Tofu Chanpuru and Yushi Tofu

While the menu features many tofu-based dishes, the "Tofu Chanpuru" (stir-fried tofu) is a standout. The house-made island tofu is pan-seared until golden, then tossed with bitter melon, vegetables, and pork. The exterior remains crispy while the inside stays soft and juicy. Also recommended is "Yushi Tofu," a fluffy, unpressed tofu served in a delicate bonito broth—a light and comforting choice, especially for breakfast. For larger groups, the "Tofu Nabusaa" (miso-braised tofu) and the Yushi Tofu Soba topped with hearty pork belly are excellent additions. Don't miss the side of "Okara" (stir-fried soy pulp) that comes with the meal; many regulars consider this humble, house-made side dish a hidden highlight.

Perfectly positioned for your rental car itinerary

Kaiyo Shokudo is conveniently located for those driving. Less than 15 minutes from Naha Airport and near the Nakachi IC, it serves as a perfect stop whether you are heading south toward Toyosaki and Senaga Island, or north into Naha city. It is an ideal first stop after picking up your rental car, or a convenient lunch spot before returning your vehicle on your final day. Parking is hassle-free compared to the crowded city center.

💡 Tips before you go

Free parking is available in front of the shop and across the street. However, it gets crowded with local office workers between 12:00 and 13:30, and spaces are relatively tight. We recommend visiting around 10:30 or after 1

Okinawa's "Amalfi Coast": White terraces facing the sea

Located just south of Naha Airport, Senaga Island is less than a 15-minute drive away, yet feels like a world apart. Umikaji Terrace features tiered white buildings cascading down the slope, each level facing the ocean. On sunny days, the blue sky, sea, and architecture blend into one. Inspired by Italy's Amalfi Coast, the facility attracts over 3.3 million visitors annually, making it one of the most popular complexes in southern Okinawa.

Over 40 stylish shops for dining and shopping

The complex houses over 40 shops, ranging from local Okinawan pottery, Ryukyu textiles, and artisanal perfumes to creative taco rice, seafood burgers, fresh marlin bowls, and Okinawa soba. Enjoy a cocktail at an outdoor seat facing the sea while watching planes pass overhead at low altitude—a rare sight for a commercial facility. "A Happy Pancake" (幸せのパンケーキ) has a branch here; its fluffy, thick pancakes are highly popular on social media, so arriving early on weekends is recommended.

The final stop before Naha Airport

For travelers flying to Okinawa, Senaga Island offers a practical advantage: it is only 15 minutes from Naha Airport (OKA). Whether you visit upon arrival or as a final stop before your flight, it is perfectly situated. Many visitors use it as a last-minute destination to pick up souvenirs and enjoy one final Okinawan meal before heading to the terminal. The terraced design ensures open ocean views from every level, making it easy to take photos without crowds.

Natural salt springs with views of the Kerama Islands

For a longer stay, visit the Ryukyu Onsen Senagajima Hotel to experience "Ryujin-no-Yu." This facility uses rare natural salt springs. The open-air bath offers direct views toward the Kerama Islands, providing an unforgettable sunset experience. The hotel offers day-trip bathing, making it a perfect addition to an afternoon itinerary.

Accessible without a car: Free shuttle bus available

Umikaji Terrace provides a free shuttle bus to and from Akamine Station on the Okinawa Monorail, as well as the "Senaga Island Airport Limousine" service directly to Naha Airport. It is highly convenient for independent travelers who prefer not to rent a car.

💡 Planning Tip

Umikaji Terrace offers excellent sunset views, so try to arrive around dusk. Looking west from the island on a clear day, you can watch the sun

Watch planes land from your seat: A highlight near Naha Airport

POSILLIPO cucina meridionale is situated on the highlands of Senaga Island, adjacent to the tiered white buildings of Umikaji Terrace. With an unobstructed view of the Pacific Ocean and its proximity to Naha Airport, the terrace offers a front-row seat to planes landing and taking off overhead—a popular photo opportunity. Whether you are arriving in Okinawa or preparing to return your rental car, POSILLIPO is a convenient stop.

Wood-fired Neapolitan pizza with local Okinawan vegetables and fresh seafood

The menu features Southern Italian cuisine focusing on simple, high-quality ingredients like salt, olive oil, and local citrus. Okinawan vegetables and fresh local fish are prepared with this minimalist approach. The pizza is highly recommended; prepared by a resident Pizzaiolo using imported Italian flour and baked in a wood-fired oven, the crust is charred and chewy, topped with mozzarella. The restaurant follows a "Slow Food" philosophy, perfect for a relaxed lunch.

The best time to visit: 45 minutes before sunset

Sunset is the most popular time at POSILLIPO. As the sky shifts from blue to orange, the silhouettes of passing planes create a perfect photo opportunity that lasts about 20 minutes. The rooftop bar, "MARE," offers a different atmosphere at night, ideal for enjoying the Okinawa night view. Please note that a ¥550 table charge per person applies after 17:00.

💡 Reservation and Seating Tips

Check the sunset time for your visit and book a terrace seat 30 to 45 minutes prior. This allows you to witness the rapid color changes of the sky. Terrace seating is highly popular and often fully booked during peak seasons; it is recommended to book in advance via the official website, as securing a front-row ocean view seat on the spot is difficult.

Website	Taco Rice Cafe Kijimunaa Official Website

The birthplace of Omutaco, located in the white terraced mall of Senaga Island

Taco Rice Cafe Kijimunaa (タコライスカフェきじむなぁ) is a staple of Okinawa's food scene, famous as the originator of "Omutaco" (omelet taco rice). While now found across the island, this is where the signature fluffy egg-topped taco rice began. The Senaga Island branch is located within Umikaji Terrace, a white, tiered shopping complex built into a hillside that is often compared to a Greek island and is a destination in its own right. The outdoor terrace seats are highly coveted, offering direct ocean views. On clear days, you can see the Kerama Islands, and planes approaching Naha Airport fly low overhead—the noise is striking, but it makes for a great photo opportunity. Indoor seating is air-conditioned, making it a comfortable choice for families or rainy days.

How to customize your Omutaco

The signature "Omutaco" features turmeric rice topped with spiced ground meat, a fluffy, half-cooked omelet, salsa, lettuce, and cheese. The creamy egg balances the spice of the meat and the acidity of the salsa, resulting in a surprisingly light flavor profile. You can customize the spice level of the meat, ranging from mild (sweet) to habanero-level heat. Toppings such as avocado, mozzarella, charred bacon, and fries are available. A satisfying meal typically stays within a ¥1,000 budget.

Perfect for your first or last stop in Okinawa

Located just 15 minutes from Naha Airport, Senaga Island is a popular first or last stop for those renting a car. It is an ideal spot to grab a meal and explore the mall upon arrival or during those final hours before returning your rental car. Umikaji Terrace offers a shared parking lot for drivers. Non-drivers can easily reach the island via shuttle from Akamine Station. The Ryujin-no-Yu natural hot spring is also nearby if you have extra time.

💡 Best visited at sunset

If your schedule permits, visit in the evening. After 17:00, the sunset light over the water is spectacular. You can watch the planes landing at Naha Airport while enjoying the sunset. Order an Omutaco at Kijimunaa’s outdoor seating, wait for the sun to set, and then stroll through the illuminated mall—the atmosphere transforms completely once night falls.

A Vibrant Orange Sign Amidst White Architecture

Located at Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace, Shisaa Shop is a distinctive Shisa (guardian lion) specialty store. Its bright orange sign stands out against the white buildings, making it a natural draw for visitors. The shop features handcrafted Shisa statues by local Okinawan artisans, each with unique expressions—a significant step up from mass-produced souvenirs.

Shisa Painting DIY: Create Your Own Souvenir

The shop’s most popular activity is Shisa painting DIY. You receive a plain figurine and have complete creative freedom to choose colors, patterns, and expressions. With the sea breeze blowing and airplanes occasionally passing overhead, it is a memorable way to spend time. It is highly recommended for families and couples; allow yourself plenty of time to enjoy the process.

Traditional Beliefs Reimagined as Contemporary Design

In Okinawan culture, Shisa are guardian spirits traditionally placed in pairs on rooftops or gates to ward off evil. The Shisa at Shisaa Shop differ from the traditional, stoic figures; they feature lively expressions, bold colors, and even humorous designs, making them popular with younger travelers and international visitors. The shop successfully transforms centuries-old cultural symbols into modern, desirable souvenirs.

A Must-Visit Near Naha Airport

Senaga Island is located just minutes from Naha Airport, making it an ideal stop. Many visitors include Umikaji Terrace as their first destination upon arrival or their final stop before departure to pick up last-minute souvenirs. After choosing your Shisa, you can enjoy the iconic view of airplanes flying over the white buildings against the backdrop of the sea. If you are planning a Tomigusuku sightseeing itinerary or looking for attractions near Naha Airport, Shisaa Shop and Umikaji Terrace are well worth including.

💡 DIY Painting Tips

It is recommended to check for availability on-site, as wait times may occur during peak season. Since the paint requires time to dry, consider doing this early in your itinerary to allow the piece to set before packing. The shop provides packaging for your finished Shisa, making it safe to carry on your flight.

White-tiered architecture and plane spotting: A terrace you won't want to leave

PHILLY Kingrolls is located within Umikaji Terrace on Senaga Island. Known for its white, tiered architecture and expansive ocean views, this area is often compared to Santorini and is a must-visit photo spot in southern Okinawa. PHILLY Kingrolls features an American street-style aesthetic, energetic staff, and a relaxed atmosphere. The highlight is the outdoor oceanfront seating. Perfectly positioned facing the Naha Airport runway, the sight of planes flying low overhead is impressive. Coupled with the sea breeze, it is the ideal spot to unwind. As sunset approaches, the shifting colors of the sky and sea make it a perfect place to wait for the evening. Whether you are looking to relax after arriving or seeking a final spot before departing, the location and atmosphere are ideal.

Burgers and Tacos: You can't go wrong

The signature dish at PHILLY Kingrolls is the American beef burger. Made to order, the patties are thick and juicy, served with fresh-fried fries. Hearty eaters can opt for the 300g version. Another popular choice is the tacos and American-style beef rolls. While Okinawa has its own taco rice culture, this version stays closer to the American original, featuring seasoned ground meat, lettuce, and salsa in a shell. Pair it with an Orion draft or a Corona for the quintessential island afternoon.

15 minutes from the airport: The perfect final stop before returning your rental car

Senaga Island is located just south of Naha Airport, connected to the main island by a sea road. It is easily accessible by car and offers free parking. For those not driving, a shuttle route from Akamine Station is available. If you have a few hours to spare on your final day, Senaga Island is a great way to fill your schedule: enjoy a meal at PHILLY Kingrolls, watch the sea from the terrace, browse souvenirs at Umikaji Terrace, or consider a soak at the nearby Ryukyu Onsen Senagajima Hotel (Ryujin-no-Yu).

💡 Note for travelers with evening flights

If you have an evening flight, we recommend scheduling Senaga Island for your final afternoon. After exploring southern attractions, drive here to enjoy a burger and wait for the sunset before returning your car. It is only 10 to 15 minutes away

An Infinity Standing Bath Level with the Horizon

Located on Senaga Island south of Naha Airport, Ryujin no Yu offers a unique setting. The highlight is a 120 cm deep outdoor standing bath; when you stand inside, your eye level aligns with the horizon, offering unobstructed views of the Kerama Islands without railings or roofs. Situated right next to the airport runway, you can watch planes fly overhead while you soak. The scenery shifts from the brilliant blue of the daytime sky to Okinawa’s famous fiery sunsets, providing a completely different experience depending on the time of day.

Salt Spring Water from 1,000 Meters Underground

Drawn from 1,000 meters underground, the water is a salt spring, a rarity in Okinawa’s geological environment. Salt springs are known for their excellent heat-retention properties, helping to warm the body and relieve stiffness after a long flight. Often called a "beauty bath" and a "child-bearing bath," its proximity to the airport makes it a popular final stop before departure. In addition to the outdoor standing bath, the facility features pot baths and Finnish saunas to suit your preference.

Pair with Umikaji Terrace for a Perfect Afternoon

Ryujin no Yu is located right next to Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace, accessible by foot. This white, Mediterranean-style shopping complex features cafes like Happy Pancake, souvenir shops, and various restaurants. It is ideal to spend the afternoon browsing and dining before heading to the hot spring as the sun begins to set. If you have a late-night or early-morning flight, the airport is less than a 10-minute drive away, making this a convenient final stop.

💡 Bathing Tips

Sunset (around 18:00, varies by season) is the most popular time at Ryujin no Yu. Space in the outdoor standing bath is limited, so arriving 30 minutes early during peak season is recommended. The facility is least crowded during the first hour after opening at 06:00; morning bathers can enjoy a quieter atmosphere and unique ocean lighting.

Tabelog Rating	3.42 (Top-rated ice cream shop in the Tomigusuku area)

Okinawa's Soul Dessert Born from U.S. Bases

BLUE SEAL holds a place in the hearts of locals similar to long-standing traditional ice cream parlors elsewhere. Established in 1948 at the U.S. military base in Gushikawa, the brand originally provided a taste of home for stationed personnel. Over time, it blended rich American recipes with local tropical ingredients, creating unique flavors found only in Okinawa. The blue and white sign has since become a staple of the Okinawa landscape. The Tomiton branch offers indoor seating and air conditioning, providing a much more comfortable experience than the crowded, standing-room-only locations on Kokusai-dori. It is an ideal spot for drivers to escape the sun and enjoy a treat.

Must-Try Flavors: Salt Chinsuko and Beni-imo

With over 30 flavors available, choosing can be difficult. However, the top recommendation is almost always "Salt Chinsuko." It features bits of traditional Okinawan Chinsuko cookies mixed into vanilla ice cream, with Chatan salt enhancing the creamy profile and providing a perfect sweet-and-salty balance. For a local taste, the "Beni-imo" (purple yam) flavor offers a vibrant color and balanced sweetness, while the "Shikuwasa" (Okinawan citrus) is a refreshing choice for hot days. The Tomiton branch also serves made-to-order crepes and American-style milkshakes, making it a family-friendly destination.

The Perfect Final Stop Before the Airport

Located just a three-minute walk from Okinawa Outlet Mall ASHIBINAA and near the DMM Kariyushi Aquarium and iias Okinawa Toyosaki, this branch is highly convenient for travelers in the southern region. It is an ideal spot to stop after shopping at ASHIBINAA or visiting Senaga Island. You can park in the free lot at TOMITON, enjoy some ice cream, and then head to return your rental car.

The first stop after arrival, where many truly begin to feel the Okinawa vibe.

Less than 20 minutes south of Naha Airport along Route 331 lies Roadside Station Toyosaki. As the closest roadside station to the airport on the main island, it is a natural first stop for travelers still getting their bearings after picking up a rental car. The "Nanamaru" farmers' market inside sells fresh produce delivered directly from local Tomigusuku farms; the quality of the freshly picked items is distinct from supermarket shelves, making shopping a delight. A short walk away are DMM Kariyushi Aquarium and Okinawa Outlet Mall Ashibinaa, making it easy to cover the entire area in a single morning if traveling with children or looking to shop. It is also a convenient spot to pick up any last-minute souvenirs before heading home.

Tomigusuku mangoes; worth a special trip during the June to August season.

In Google Maps reviews and travel forums, mangoes are the most frequently mentioned highlight of Roadside Station Toyosaki. Known as the "Home of Japanese Mangoes," the town features stalls piled high with premium Irwin mangoes harvested from local farms between June and August. They are exceptionally sweet, juicy, and priced lower than in downtown Naha. If you miss the mango season, the Okinawa soba and local dishes featuring luffa are equally memorable, offering an easy and authentic introduction to Okinawan culinary culture.

1. The first thing to do after picking up your rental car: get organized.

2. Several major rental car agencies (including OTS Rent-a-Car) are located nearby. After picking up your vehicle, drive straight here to grab an Okinawa island map or sightseeing brochures at the information counter. Planning your route before heading out is much more efficient than navigating on the fly. During typhoon season, the real-time traffic and weather updates provided at the counter are also quite useful. One lesser-known highlight: Roadside Station Toyosaki is located near the extended runway of Naha Airport. If you're waiting for someone or grabbing a drink in the outdoor seating area in the afternoon, you might catch planes flying low overhead. It’s a pleasant surprise for aviation enthusiasts and a great spot for families with children to pass the time.

Only in Okinawa: The local favorite known as "Ender"

A&W (affectionately called "Ender" by locals) is an American fast-food chain found in Japan only in Okinawa. Originating during the U.S. military occupation, it has been part of island life since the postwar era. This branch at iias Okinawa Toyosaki, which opened in 2020, offers a more spacious and brighter environment than older roadside locations. It is perfect for families or groups, and a great spot to escape the summer heat.

Free refills on Root Beer—worth the visit alone

The signature "The A&W Burger" is a must-try, featuring a thick beef patty, ham, onion rings, and cream cheese. It is best paired with their signature curly fries. However, many visitors come specifically for the Root Beer. This herbal, spiced carbonated drink is polarizing for first-timers but highly addictive. Dine-in orders include FREE REFILLS, making it an ideal spot to relax for an hour.

A perfect stop after picking up your car or before returning it

The iias Okinawa Toyosaki location is ideal for road trips. It is just a 15-minute drive from Naha Airport and sits right next to the DMM Kariyushi Aquarium, with ASHIBINAA Outlet and Toyosaki Beach within walking distance.

An Immersive Experience in Southern Okinawa

DMM Kariyushi Aquarium is located on the 2nd floor of the iias Okinawa Toyosaki shopping center. While it may not look like a traditional aquarium from the outside, it offers a unique blend of light projections, ambient sound, and live exhibits. Rather than traditional educational displays, the space functions more like an art installation inspired by marine and forest ecosystems, making it highly photogenic. The aquarium spans two floors: the 2nd floor "Evergreen Forest" recreates the lighting of a subtropical jungle, where sloths can be seen at eye level. The 1st floor "Clear Sea" features large tanks and jellyfish exhibits in a dimly lit space, creating a stunning atmosphere for photography—perfect for couples and families.

Highlights: Glass Floors and Feeding Experiences

The most popular photo spot is the "Clear Ocean" tank with a glass floor. Walking across it provides a thrilling view of sharks and rays swimming beneath your feet. The touch pool allows visitors to interact with starfish and small sharks. Additionally, there are feeding experiences for otters, penguins, and sloths available for an extra fee; it is recommended to check availability and book upon arrival. The facility is significantly smaller than the Churaumi Aquarium in the north. A typical visit takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. While it may not be a full-day destination, its focus on technology and interactivity offers a different experience from traditional aquariums.

Ideal for Arrival or Rainy Days

Located just 15 minutes from Naha Airport and integrated with the iias Toyosaki shopping center, the aquarium is convenient for dining and shopping without needing further travel. It serves as an excellent indoor alternative for rainy days in southern Okinawa and is particularly well-suited for families with children, thanks to the mall's ample parking.

💡 Download the App Before Entering

There are no physical information plaques for the animals. Instead, all information is accessed via Bluetooth through the DMM Kariyushi Aquarium official app. The app also features a stamp rally game for children. Be sure to download it before entering to avoid delays.

A 700-meter white sand beach where planes fly overhead

Toyosaki Seaside Park Chura SUN Beach is the largest and best-equipped seaside park in southern Okinawa. Its curved beach stretches for nearly 700 meters with fine white sand and clear water. Facing west, it offers a prime vantage point for sunsets. On clear days, the sky transitions from golden to deep orange and purple—a favorite spot for locals to watch the sunset. What makes this beach unique is its proximity to the Naha Airport flight path. Visitors can watch planes fly low overhead, accompanied by the roar of engines and the sea breeze. The beach is divided into a northern swimming area and a southern sports area, equipped with safety nets and lifeguards. Even without swimming, the seaside promenade is perfect for a stroll.

Combine shopping, aquarium, and sunset in one day

A major advantage of Chura SUN Beach is its proximity to other attractions, making it easy to plan a half-day or full-day itinerary:

iias Okinawa Toyosaki & DMM Kariyushi Aquarium: Located just steps from the beach. Spend the afternoon shopping and visiting the aquarium, then head to the beach for the sunset.
Okinawa Outlet Mall Ashibinaa: A 6 to 7-minute drive away, this is the closest outlet for shopping before the sunset.
Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace: A 12-minute drive away, perfect for dinner at its hot springs, seaside restaurants, and izakayas after the sunset.

Tabelog Rating	3.44 (Southern branch of the Okinawa Soba Championship-winning Tamaya)

A branch of the inaugural Okinawa Soba champion, featuring a broth you'll want to finish to the last drop

Sobadokoro Tamaya Toyosaki maintains the exact same broth-making process as its flagship store, which won the first-ever Okinawa Soba Championship. Unlike many shops that rely on heavy pork bone bases, Tamaya specializes in a clear broth. Slow-simmered with pork bones and dried bonito, the resulting soup is amber-hued and clear, yet offers a deep, sweet complexity that is light and addictive. The interior is bright and spacious, and the staff are efficient and friendly, making it accessible even for first-time visitors. Orders are placed via a ticket machine, and even during busy periods, wait times are generally short.

The local way: Combine your Okinawa Soba with a bowl of juicy

The most popular item is the "Mixed Soba," featuring both soft pork rib (soki) and pork belly (sanmainiku). The former is stewed until falling off the bone, while the latter offers a perfect fat-to-meat ratio. The noodles are a custom thin, straight variety that absorbs the broth well and provides a satisfying chew. Pairing it with a bowl of seasoned rice (juicy) is the standard local way to ensure a hearty meal. Fresh mugwort (fuchiba) is provided at the table; adding it to your hot soup releases an herbal aroma that complements the bonito flavor. A few drops of chili-infused awamori (koregusu) add another layer of depth, so be sure to try both.

Conveniently located: 15 minutes from the airport and 5 minutes from Ashibinaa

Located in the Toyosaki district of southern Naha, this area has seen rapid development. The DMM Kariyushi Aquarium, iias Okinawa Toyosaki shopping mall, and Ashibinaa Outlet Mall are all just minutes away. Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace is a short drive south, while Naha city center is to the north. For those driving, it is a perfect stop for a first meal upon arrival, a shopping break, or a final bowl before departure.

💡 Tips for your visit

Ample free parking is available. Note that the shop closes at 15:00 on Mondays and Thursdays and is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so plan accordingly. The ticket machine is cash only; please have

Tabelog Rating	3.40 (Iconic tuna restaurant within Itoman City Product Center)

Directly operated by a fishing fleet: The tuna specialist at Japan's southernmost roadside station

Maguroya Miikagan is located inside the "Michi-no-Eki Itoman" product center, the southernmost roadside station in Japan. It is operated by the local Okinawa company "Sanko Co., Ltd.," which owns a large-scale tuna fishing fleet and its own processing plant. By handling everything from catch to processing and serving, the tuna here is exceptionally fresh and reasonably priced—the kind of place you'll wish you had discovered sooner. The interior is spacious, featuring traditional Okinawan concrete block (hana-block) decor, sunken seating areas, and private rooms. The occasional live tuna filleting shows are a highlight, creating a vibrant atmosphere for diners.

Supreme Tuna Bowls and Lobster with Sea Urchin Sauce: A menu full of tough choices

The menu is extensive, making it hard to choose. The most popular item is the "Kiwami Maguro-don" (Supreme Tuna Bowl), topped with fatty tuna (otoro), medium fatty tuna (chutoro), and lean tuna (akami). The way the fat melts on the tongue paired with vinegared rice explains why locals insist on eating tuna here.

Non-sashimi options are also available, including deep-fried tuna cutlet (maguro katsu) sets, fish soup, and goya champuru, making it a great spot for families and seniors.

More than just a "Shokudo"

Itoman Gyomin Shokudo is located in Itoman, a city in southern Okinawa historically known as a fishing hub. While the name suggests a casual port-side eatery, the exterior features traditional Ryukyu limestone, and the interior offers a quiet, modern atmosphere that contrasts with the industrial feel of the nearby harbor. Owner and chef Mr. Tamashiro comes from a family of fish wholesalers, allowing him to source the freshest local catch, known as "Imaiyu," as soon as boats dock. The menu focuses on traditional fishing village cuisine refined with modern techniques. It is a favorite among local connoisseurs.

The Sizzling Signature Dish

The must-order is the "Imaiyu no Butter-yaki" (Seasonal Butter-Grilled Fish Set). Choose your fish from the daily blackboard selection—often premium Okinawa varieties like Akamachi or Mibai—and select your sauce. When served on a hot iron plate, the staff pours "Aosa Butter" (Okinawa sea lettuce butter sauce) over it; the resulting sizzle and aroma are sure to turn heads. The fish skin is crispy while the meat remains tender. Another popular dish is the "Fish Soup Set," a traditional fisherman's staple featuring a sweet, sesame-based broth. Meals conclude with a small portion of handmade tofu pudding or Okinawa brown sugar zenzai.

A Perfect Stop in the South, 20 Minutes from Naha Airport

Strategically located near Naha Airport and the major roadside station "Michi-no-Eki Itoman," the restaurant is easy to reach by car. It fits perfectly into a southern itinerary, whether you are heading to Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace, shopping at Ashibinaa Outlet, or visiting Peace Memorial Park or Chinen Misaki. With lunch priced between ¥1,000 and ¥1,999, it offers exceptional value for premium local seafood.

💡 Essential Tips

Itoman Gyomin Shokudo does not accept reservations. Expect queues before opening (around 11:25). Upon arrival, be sure to sign the registration sheet at the entrance; standing in line without registering does not count.

Access	Near Itoman City Hall. Approx. 30-minute drive from Naha Airport; also accessible by taxi.
Tabelog Rating	3.66 (Ranked #1 for Okinawa Soba in the Itoman/Mabuni area)

Wood-ash noodles and slow-aging: A destination-worthy bowl

Established in 1984 in Shiozaki-cho, Itoman, Nanbu Soba is a premier Okinawa soba institution in the south. The restaurant is renowned for its noodles: instead of store-bought, they use the traditional "wood-ash method" to craft their own, followed by a long, low-temperature aging process. The resulting wavy noodles are firm, chewy, and excellent at absorbing the broth—redefining the common perception of Okinawa soba. The interior is spacious, featuring standard tables, tatami seating, and an outdoor terrace. The aroma of bonito and pork bone greets you upon entry, creating a casual, authentic atmosphere popular with both locals and travelers.

Signature Trotter Soba: Melt-in-your-mouth pork with clear bonito broth

The must-order is the Nanbu Soba (Tebichi Soba). The pig's trotters are slow-cooked in a special sauce and black vinegar to remove excess fat while retaining collagen. The skin is tender and the meat falls off the bone, with a balanced sweet and savory flavor. The broth is a clear, refined bonito and pork bone blend that is flavorful yet light. Pair it with a side of "Juicy" (traditional Okinawa seasoned rice) or the "Sanmai-niku Soba" (pork belly soba) for a satisfying lunch.

A perfect first stop south of Naha Airport

Nanbu Soba is strategically located for southern Okinawa road trips. Situated along the main route south from Naha Airport, it is a convenient 30-minute drive upon arrival. It fits perfectly into an itinerary heading toward Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace, Toyosaki Seaside Park, Okinawa World (Gyokusendo), Peace Memorial Park, or Makabi Chinā without needing to detour. If you are picking up a rental car at the airport and heading south, this is an ideal first stop for lunch.

💡 Pro Tips

Nanbu Soba is open for lunch only (11:00–15:30) and closes when ingredients run out; arriving early during peak season is recommended. Parking is available with 10 spaces in front and a second lot for 20 vehicles diagonally across the street. The restaurant is family-friendly and accepts PayPay and credit cards.

Wood-fired pizza by the Pacific: A destination dining spot in Itoman

Restaurant & Bar PORTO is tucked away in Shiozaki-cho, Itoman, in southern Okinawa, right next to Shiozaki Beach. The restaurant features a row of ocean-facing seats, and the terrace area offers an unobstructed view of the Pacific with the soothing sound of waves. The sunset view from this angle is spectacular, making it a popular spot for locals to reserve in advance. The cuisine matches the scenery. The kitchen is equipped with a professional Italian wood-fired oven. Pizzas are hand-stretched and baked at high temperatures using longan wood, resulting in a perfectly charred, leopard-spotted crust that is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside—a distinct difference from electric-oven pizzas.

Must-try: Margherita, Bismarck, and the Blue Crab Tomato Cream Pasta

The menu shines with its classics. The Margherita features a tangy tomato sauce base, mozzarella, and fresh basil, served hot with perfectly melted cheese. For something richer, the Bismarck pizza topped with a soft-boiled egg and prosciutto offers a wonderful depth of flavor when the yolk is broken. The pasta selection is highlighted by the Blue Crab Tomato Cream Pasta, where the sweetness of the crab infuses the creamy sauce. Lunch sets are available, including a salad and drink, keeping the budget comfortably under ¥1,500.

A perfect dinner stop for southern Okinawa road trips

PORTO is conveniently located for those exploring the south. It is an easy stop if you are returning from Peace Memorial Park, Cape Kyan, or Hyakuna Beach. It is also just a 10–12 minute drive from ASHIBINAA Outlet or DMM Kariyushi Aquarium, making it an ideal dinner destination after an afternoon of shopping or sightseeing.

A Landmark of Southern Okinawa: The Stained Glass Dome

Ryukyu Glass Village in Itoman is the largest handcrafted glass workshop on Okinawa Island. The entrance features a dome made of thousands of pieces of colored glass; when the sunlight hits, the interior transforms into a kaleidoscope. With showrooms, a factory, and workshop spaces all indoors or covered, it is an ideal rainy-day destination in southern Okinawa. The origin of Ryukyu glass is fascinating. In the post-war era, when resources were scarce, local artisans recycled discarded Coca-Cola and beer bottles left by the U.S. military. The impurities in the recycled glass created unique bubbles and deeper, thicker colors, eventually evolving into the distinct style known today as Ryukyu glass. In the workshop, you can watch artisans blow and shape glass beside 1,000°C furnaces—a powerful and immersive experience.

Southern Okinawa Day Trip: Recommended Nearby Spots

Located in Itoman, Ryukyu Glass Village is close to several key attractions:

Okinawa World & Gyokusendo: About a 15-minute drive. Featuring one of Japan's largest limestone caves, it pairs perfectly with a glassmaking session.
Peace Memorial Park / Himeyuri Monument: A 5–8 minute drive. These are essential sites for understanding WWII history in Okinawa.
Senaga Island Umikaji Terrace: About a 25-minute drive back toward Naha. Perfect for sunset views and dinner.

Glassblowing, Demonstrations, and an Outlet Section

The popular "Glassblowing Experience" includes professional guidance through every step—from blowing and rotating to shaping. Children aged 6 and up can participate. For those who cannot wait for the overnight cooling process, the facility offers quick workshops like glass painting or kaleidoscope making. The shop offers a wide range of items, from daily glassware to decorative lighting. Notably, there is an Outlet Section featuring pieces with slight imperfections in bubble distribution or shape at discounted prices, offering great value for those looking to bring home multiple items.

💡 Note on Glassblowing

Finished glass pieces require overnight cooling (annealing) and cannot be taken home the same day. It is recommended to visit during the first few days of your Okinawa trip so you can return to collect your items. International shipping is available for a fee, but it is costly; planning ahead is the best way to save time and money.

A History That Stays With You

Himeyuri Peace Museum (ひめゆり平和祈念資料館), located in Itoman in the southern part of Okinawa Island, is dedicated to the memory of the "Himeyuri Student Corps." Comprised of students and teachers from the Okinawa Prefectural First Girls' High School and the Okinawa Women's Normal School, these students were mobilized as nurses during the 1945 Battle of Okinawa; most did not survive. The museum houses personal testimonies, artifacts, manuscripts, and a replica of a wartime shelter. Rather than focusing on statistics, the exhibits highlight individual lives—their names, pre-war photos, and personal words—offering a glimpse into who they were before the war. It is a profound experience for any traveler seeking to understand modern Okinawan history.

Southern Okinawa Itinerary Suggestions

Located at the southern tip of Itoman, the museum is within a 15-minute drive of several historical and natural sites, making it ideal for a day trip:

Okinawa World (Gyokusendo): About a 15-minute drive. Exploring the limestone caves and Ryukyu culture in the morning, followed by the museum in the afternoon, provides a balanced pace.
Peace Memorial Park: A 5-minute drive away. Directly linked to the museum's historical context, the park features the "Cornerstone of Peace," which lists the names of all those who perished in the Battle of Okinawa.
Senaga Island or Southern Coastline: After visiting these somber sites, many choose to end their day watching the sunset at Senaga Island, located about 20 minutes away, for a moment of reflection.

Language, Photography, and Atmosphere

Exhibits include translations in Chinese, English, and Korean, with audio guides available. The "Himeyuri Monument" and the Ihara Third Surgical Trench site nearby remain places where visitors pay their respects, and the area is frequently visited by Japanese school groups. Please note that photography is prohibited in certain areas out of respect for the deceased; check the signs upon entry.

💡 Visitor Tips

The exhibits are extensive; allow 1 to 1.5 hours for your visit. If traveling with children, parental guidance is recommended as some content is sensitive. A large free parking lot is available on-site.

No License Required: Ride an ATV Through the Banyan Jungle

Located in Itoman, southern Okinawa, Gajumarunture Itoman offers a unique experience: no driver's license is required, and you can start riding after brief instructions from the on-site guide. ATV controls are intuitive, and the instructor will help you master the basics before departure. Children can ride as passengers with adults, making this one of the few outdoor activities suitable for all ages. The route winds through a subtropical jungle filled with Banyan (Gajumaru) trees. The aerial roots hanging from the trunks create a dense, tangled canopy that filters the sunlight, offering a surreal atmosphere. Guides will stop at scenic spots along the way to help you capture photos that look completely different from the typical beach-themed Okinawa shots.

A Great Starting Point for a Southern Okinawa Day Trip

Gajumarunture Itoman is located within the "Itoman Tourism Farm," surrounded by several major southern Okinawa attractions, making it easy to include in your itinerary without extra detours:

Okinawa Peace Memorial Park: Located directly across from the site, featuring vast seaside lawns and historical monuments—perfect for relaxing after your ride.

John Man Beach (Odo Beach): About an 8-minute drive away, known for its rich intertidal zone and as one of the best snorkeling spots in the south.

Outdoor Fun That’s Even Better in the Rain

Okinawa's weather can be unpredictable, but this activity is actually enhanced by rain. After a shower, natural puddles form on the jungle trails, making the ride even more thrilling as you splash through them. Raincoats and boots are available for free rental on-site, so getting wet or muddy is part of the fun. Beyond the ride, there is a segment where you will stop to walk through the forest. The guide will introduce native Okinawan flora, fauna, and local forest beliefs, turning the experience into an insightful ecological tour rather than just a high-speed ride.

💡 Two Things to Know Before You Go

While rain boots and protective gear are provided, we recommend wearing old clothes and shoes you don't mind getting dirty to fully enjoy the experience. Slots are limited; popular times can book out one

A National Memorial Park on Mabuni Hill, where the scenery invites reflection

Peace Memorial Park is located in Mabuni, Itoman, at the southernmost tip of Okinawa Island. This site was the final fierce battleground of the Battle of Okinawa during WWII. After the war, these hills were developed into a national memorial park overlooking the sea. The expansive grounds feature lawns stretching toward cliffs that drop into the Pacific Ocean. On clear days, the view of the blue expanse is breathtaking, creating a quiet, contemplative atmosphere that speaks louder than any plaque. The park's centerpiece, the "Cornerstone of Peace," is inscribed with the names of over 240,000 people who lost their lives in the Battle of Okinawa, regardless of nationality or status. Nearby, the 45-meter-tall Peace Memorial Hall houses a large Buddha statue dedicated to world peace, serving as a prominent landmark in southern Okinawa.

💡 Tips for your visit

A Local Favorite: What is Minami no Eki Yaese?

Minami no Eki Yaese is a roadside station (Michi-no-Eki) in Yaese, Southern Okinawa. It is smaller and less crowded than the popular stations in the central and northern regions, offering a more authentic look at daily life in Okinawa. Thanks to the favorable agricultural conditions in Yaese, the on-site market features fresh produce delivered daily by local farmers. Items such as purple yam (beni-imo), mangoes, and shikuwasa are staples here, often priced lower and fresher than in tourist areas. It is a highly recommended stop for those driving through Southern Okinawa. The station houses several eateries serving staples like Okinawa Soba, as well as local goat dishes and light snacks. With spacious dining areas and convenient parking, it is an ideal, relaxed spot for a lunch break.

Parking, Information, and Souvenirs

The large, free parking lot accommodates even full-size vans, a major plus for families renting cars. The facility includes a tourist information desk with maps of Yaese and Southern Okinawa, as well as updates on local events, such as the Yaese Cherry Blossom Festival held from late January to February. The building is bright and accessible, making it easy to navigate with strollers or for elderly visitors. Before leaving, try the purple yam soft-serve ice cream at the snack shop; it is a regional specialty that is both cheaper and fresher here than in Naha.

💡 Southern Okinawa Driving Itinerary Tip

For a day trip to the south, consider scheduling Minami no Eki Yaese for lunch. Spend your morning visiting Ou Island for tempura and cats, or exploring Gyokusendo. Head here for a bowl of Okinawa Soba and pick up seasonal fruit from the market to enjoy on the road. This helps avoid the crowds at major tourist restaurants and keeps your route efficient.

A 300,000-Year-Old Underground World: Gyokusendo Cave

Inside, the temperature drops, revealing millions of stalactites and stalagmites illuminated to create a serene, spectacular atmosphere. The high-ceilinged "Oriental Hall" and the clear "Blue Spring" are particularly impressive. The walking path is flat and takes about 30 minutes to complete. It is a one-way route that leads directly to the traditional craft village, so there is no need to backtrack.

A Subtropical Primeval Forest Formed by a Collapsed Ancient Limestone Cave

Gangala Valley features a unique geological formation. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, a massive limestone cave collapsed, opening the ceiling to sunlight and allowing plants to flourish, creating the valley seen today. Due to the fragility of the ecosystem and archaeological sites, independent entry is not permitted. Visitors must be accompanied by a professional guide for the entire 1 hour and 20 minute tour. Walking through the forest trail flanked by towering ferns and massive rock walls, with light filtering through the canopy, is an experience difficult to capture in photos. The valley’s most iconic sight is the "Ufushu Banyan Tree," estimated to be over 150 years old and nearly 20 meters tall. Its aerial roots drape down from the cliff face, weaving into the ground on a scale that leaves visitors speechless.

Faith, Archaeology, and 20,000-Year-Old Remains: The Other Side of Gangala Valley

More than just a nature trail, the route passes two sacred cave sites: "Ikiga Cave" (Male Cave) and "Inagu Cave" (Female Cave). Since ancient times, locals have visited these sites to pray for safe childbirth, fertility, and matchmaking, with original ritual traces still preserved inside. Archaeologically, Gangala Valley is a premier excavation site in Japan. Researchers discovered 20,000-year-old "Minatogawa Man" fossilized remains, stone and bone tools, and what is currently known as the oldest fishhook in Japan. Knowing that prehistoric humans once lived on this very ground adds a profound atmosphere to the tour.

Itinerary Planning: Combine Gangala Valley and Okinawa World

Located directly opposite Gangala Valley is Okinawa World (Culture Kingdom & Gyokusendo). Both are part of the same interconnected limestone cave system, making it ideal to visit them on the same day:

Cave Cafe: Located at the entrance of Gangala Valley, this cafe is built within an actual limestone cave. Even without a tour, it is worth visiting to enjoy 35 Coffee (roasted with coral) while relaxing beside limestone pillars.
Okinawa World (Gyokusendo): A 1-minute walk from Gangala, this site features one of Southeast Asia's largest limestone caves and Eisa drum performances, perfect for a half-day visit.
Ou Island: About a 10-minute drive away. Famous for fresh tempura, it is a great spot for lunch or an afternoon snack while experiencing the pace of an Okinawan southern fishing village.

位於南城市的那霸的玉泉洞和瀨長島的齋場御嶽是沖繩的少數不受歡迎的景點。這些地方每天都有許多遊客，尤其是在春天和夏天，當天氣溫暖和陽光充足時，這些地方是非常適合拍照和欣賞景色的好地方。玉城城跡（Tamaudun Ruins）**天空之城** 這個知名景點相對少有人知道。它建在海拔約 180 公尺的石灰岩丘頂，登頂後的視野直接打開，南城市的田園、知念半島的海岸線，以及太平洋上的久高島，幾乎沒有任何遮蔽。地人和少數深度遊旅客把這裡稱為「天空之城」，這個稱號其實相當貼切，站在上面的風景確實和平地的城跡截然不同。城跡規模不大，但日本政府已將其列為重要文化財產。National Historic Site這座琉球城郭的最令人驚訝的是那座直接在整塊天然巨石上鑿出來的圓形城門，呈甜甜圈形狀，全憑人工在岩石中一點一點挖出來的。這種工法在沖繩所有琉球城郭（Gusuku）裡頭幾乎找不到第二個，很多人專程為了這道門來一趟。

Okinawa的琉球創世神話的終點站：東御迴聖地巡禮

玉城城跡: 位於沖繩的傳統信仰中，玉城城跡不僅僅是一座廢棄的古城。根據琉球神話的記載，這裡是開闢之神的聖地，與琉球王國的創建有著密切的關係。玉城城跡的遺址現在被用作觀光景點，供遊客來此參觀和瞭解琉球文化和歷史。

阿摩美久 (Amamikiyo)
One of the seven ancient castles in the Ryukyu Kingdom era. During the reign of the king, the highest priestess "Munetaka-Ōgimi" would hold a pilgrimage called "Agariumai" to pray for the prosperity of the country and the people. The castle site of Urasoe Castle was the final destination of the entire journey. Inside the castle, the "Sefa-utaki" ritual space where the gods of heaven and earth were worshipped is still preserved. Even today, as you step inside, you can still feel the quiet and solemn atmosphere.

Witness the sunrise on the summer solstice, as the light pierces through the circular gate of the castle.

Hidden Secrets of the Round Tower Gate 這道圓形城門還藏著一件事，現代研究者後來才注意到。每年許多遊客都會走到這裡，卻很少有人注意到這道城門的特殊設計。城門的門框是由兩塊石頭組成的，門框的兩端都有石頭的凹陷，似乎是用來固定門框的。但是，研究者發現這兩塊石頭其實是可以分離的。這意味著，城門的設計可能是為了方便拆卸和重組。 Okinawa 地址：那霸市, 沖繩縣, 日本 Mapcode： 1V4R-9M41 電話：+81 98-864-1111 網址：https://www.okinawa-japan.bureau.go.jp/ Senaga Island 地址：那霸市, 沖繩縣, 日本 Mapcode： 1V4R-9M41 電話：+81 98-864-1111 網址：https://www.okinawa-japan.bureau.go.jp/ Sefa-utaki 地址：那霸市, 沖繩縣, 日本 Mapcode： 1V4R-9M41 電話：+81 98-864-1111 網址：https://www.okinawa-japan.bureau.go.jp/ Gyokusendo 地址：那霸市, 沖繩縣, 日本 Mapcode： 1V4R-9M41 電話：+81 98-864-1111 網址：https://www.okinawa-japan.bureau.go.jp/ Ticket Price 成人票：¥1,000 學生票：¥500 Opening Hours 每天 9:00 - 17:00 Getting There 最快捷的方式是搭乘飛機從那霸機場到沖繩機場，然後搭乘巴士或計程車到目的地。Summer Solstice Sunrise
每年夏至那一天，從太平洋地平線升起的第一道光，會精確穿過圓形城門的正中心射入城內，形成著「太陽之門」的美景。到底是當初建造時刻意設計的，還是純屬巧合，目前沒有定論，但每年夏至這一天確實會吸引一批人在天亮前就上山等待。如果你的沖繩行程剛好橫跨夏至，這個時間點爬上來值得安排。

💡 Essential tips before you go

前往 Sefa-utaki

從停車場走到頂端需要爬一段木棧道階梯，腳程正常的話 5 到 10 分鐘可以上去，但坡度稍陡，建議穿抓地力好的鞋子。城跡完全保留原始狀態，沒有照明設備，傍晚之後天色暗得快，不建議太晚還在上面。早上或晴天下午來採光最好，拍照視野也最清楚。

Pushing open the wooden windows is the Pacific Ocean, and the water level is almost at your feet during high tide

Hamabe no Chaya, a cafe located in the southern part of Okinawa, is the oldest and most well-known cafe in the area. Many people say that it is the origin of the concept of "coastal cafes" in Okinawa. The wooden building is situated right on the coast, and the windows on the ocean side can be opened completely, offering a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. The sound of the waves and the sea breeze create a relaxing atmosphere, making it feel like you're floating on the water. The best part about this cafe is that the view changes with the tide. During high tide, the water level is almost at your feet, and you'll feel like you're floating on the water. When the tide goes out, a large area of tidal flat and beach is exposed, and many people walk down to collect seashells or simply enjoy the view. The same seat offers a completely different view in the morning and afternoon, which is one of the reasons why many people return to this cafe.

Signature rural sandwiches, limited handmade cakes, and dishes that are carefully prepared, unlike just selling scenery

Hamabe no Chaya's dishes are more carefully prepared than many cafes that rely solely on their scenic views. The most popular dish is the "Rural-Style Sandwich" made with locally baked bread, fresh vegetables, and cheese. The portion is not large, but it's very comfortable to eat, making it a perfect choice for breakfast or lunch. The "Croque Monsieur" and handmade pizza are also popular choices for lunch. In the afternoon, the limited handmade cream puffs are a must-try, paired with "Ryukyu Flower Tea" or locally baked coffee. Take a photo with the cup placed on the wooden window sill, and the blue ocean behind it will make for a perfect shot, a must-have for any Okinawa travel album.

A convenient stopover on the Nishin Peninsula self-driving route, with easy access to nearby attractions

From a travel planning perspective, Hamabe no Chaya's location is very convenient. To the north, you can easily access Naha City, and to the east, you can visit Sefa-utaki and Shinza Cape Park within a few minutes. To the south, you can visit Mibaru Beach. If you visit Gyokusendo in the morning, you can easily come here for

Official Website	Cafe やぶさち官方網站：https://yabu-sachi.com/

Face the Ocean at Taiwan's Best Beach Just in front of the 100-meter-long beach, a floor-to-ceiling window offers a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean.

Cafe やぶさち（Cafe Yabusachi）坐落在沖繩南部南城市的山丘上，二樓的位置剛好俯瞰百名海灘與外海，大片落地窗讓店內每個座位都能看到海。裝潢走白色沙發配木質調，沒有太多多餘的東西，簡單但坐起來很舒服。店名「やぶさち」取自琉球七御嶽之一的「藪薩御嶽」，本身帶著一點神聖意味，從這裡望出去的海景，也確實讓人覺得這個地方不太一樣。因為場地氛圍夠，這裡也常被用來辦沖繩婚禮（Ryukyu Wedding）或小型派對，偶爾會整間包場。如果你計劃週末來，出發前先查一下官方資訊會比較保險。

在地食材做的義大利麵，吃起來比想像中更對味

菜單走法式義式路線，但食材幾乎都來自沖繩本地。午餐最多人點的是「島野菜番茄義大利麵（島野菜のトマトソース）」，用的是當地農家直送的無農藥蔬菜，味道清爽不重，搭著窗外那片海吃，很容易一口接一口。如果想吃得豐盛一點，用沖繩阿古豬或在地海鮮做的主廚拼盤也值得試試。下午茶時段來也不虧。甜點裡頭有一款加了雪鹽的焦糖堅果起司蛋糕，甜裡帶鹹，配店裡的自家烘焙咖啡或シークァーサー酸桔特調都挺搭。音樂是輕柔的 Bossa Nova，整個下午就這樣消磨掉，也沒什麼不好。

接在齋場御嶽或新原海灘前後來，行程剛剛好

Cafe やぶさち的位置很適合排進沖繩南部一日遊的動線裡。沿國道 331 號線往南走，不管是從齋場御嶽過來，還是準備去新原海灘Take a glass-bottom boat here, and nearby attractions like Gyokusendo can be completed in a day. There are two parking lots, with the second one capable of parking over 50 vehicles, so self-driving tourists need not worry about parking.

🔑 Recommended Reservations and Times

The shop can be reserved online or by phone, and it's best to reserve a seat with a Pacific Ocean view in advance. It's recommended to book a lunch at 11:30 or an afternoon tea at 15:00 on weekends or during peak seasons, as it's easier to get a seat. Note that the shop is on the 2nd floor, so those with strollers or mobility issues should be aware of the need to climb stairs.

心跳加速的瞬間當你從隧道衝出去的那一秒，整片海就在眼前炸開，讓你感受到無窮的美景。

Nirai Kanai BridgeThis scenic drive in southern Okinawa is a must-see. It's actually a pair of high bridges, NIRAI Bridge and KANAI Bridge, connected together to form a large U-shaped arc. The name NIRAI KANAI is derived from the Ryukyu language, meaning the world of gods that nurtures life in the distant ocean.

Want to capture the full view of the bridge? Try the observation deck.

Most people just drive by, but if you want to capture the bridge's arc and the sea behind it in one shot, you need to head toNIRAI KANAI Bridge Observation DeckThat's the way. The observation deck is located near the military base, just above the tunnel. Be aware that this section is strictly no-stopping, so don't try to park your car by the side of the road. Instead, park at the wide shoulder near the tunnel entrance and walk along the small path for about 5 minutes to reach the railing. From there, you can take in the entire bridge and the sea behind it. This is the spot where all those 'most beautiful roads in southern Okinawa' photos are taken.

Photography tips and traffic reminder

This spot faces east, sothe morning light is best for capturing the sea's colors，淺灘是透明感很強的藍綠色，越往遠處越深，層次最明顯。下午以後變成順光，色彩的對比就平掉了，效果差很多。另外，開車下橋那段坡度頗陡，建議放慢速度，讓副駕駛提前把手機或相機準備好，那段衝進海景的視角很短暫但非常值得錄下來。

つなや食堂 (Tsunaya Shokudo)日本指南的一位讀者在南部自駕時，發現了一家餐廳，開在沖繩的南城市知念半島上。門口停車場的老闆，頭上套著一顆巨大的鮪魚頭套，負責指揮車輛。進入店內，店員也一樣。這種徹底貫徹主題的方式，讓人一進門就放鬆下來。社群上的打卡照很多都是從這裡來的。餐廳的座位區分室內景觀席、塌塌米區和戶外露台，窗外就是太平洋。運氣好天氣清的時候，久高島的輪廓會浮在海平面上。能在這個位置吃一碗現撈鮪魚丼，老實說很難不覺得這趟南部自駕值了。

Must-try Dishes When it comes to Okinawa's local cuisine, you can't go wrong with a hearty bowl of donburi (丼飯) topped with an abundance of sashimi-grade tuna. Each component is carefully selected to ensure a harmonious balance of flavors and textures.

沖繩: 因為地理位置的關係，是日本少數一年四季都能捕到不冷凍生鮪魚的地方，
つなや食堂: 的魚直接從在地漁港進貨。招牌的「つなや丼」或「贅澤丼」上桌的時候，
赤身和中腹肉: 切得厚實，量多到幾乎把底下的白飯全蓋住，油脂在燈光下反光。
建議: 加點一顆沖繩縣產生卵黃和山藥泥，拌入醬油一起吃，口感的層次會完全不一樣。
不吃生食的話也有選擇: 。店裡備有鮭魚丼，還有一道「もずく丼（水雲褐藻丼）」，這是沖繩學校午餐才會出現的在地吃法，
外地人來大多沒聽過，: 帶長輩或小孩來也不用擔心沒東西點。隨餐附的水雲湯（もずくスープ）清爽，
吃完幾片肥鮪魚之後喝剛好。

Before heading to Sefa-utaki and Chinen Cape, grab lunch at this spot.

**Must-visit Spots in Southern Okinawa** Tsunaya Dining is just a 5-minute walk from the entrance of Sefa-utaki and Kenyan Cape Park. These two spots are a must-visit in southern Okinawa, and the dining is conveniently located in the middle. Whether you visit Sefa-utaki first or Kenyan Cape Park, it's a convenient stop. If you're traveling from Naha Airport, head north along the southern coast, passing by Sunabe Beach and Uwajima Tempura, and you'll arrive at Kenyan Peninsula around lunchtime. The timing is spot on. For travelers heading to Kudaka Island, Anza Port is nearby, and you can easily catch a ferry after lunch.

Tip: Arrive by 10:30 to avoid the peak tourist lunchtime crowds.

免費停車場在店門口，自駕很方便。營業時間是 16:00，新鮮鮪魚賣完就收，觀光團最多是在 12:00 到 13:30 之間，建議安排 10:30 至 11:30 之間先吃，吃飽再去齋場御嶽和知念岬，魚最新鮮，人也少，景點走起來也更從容。

去齊場御嶽之前，每個人都會先停在這裡

南城市地域物産館坐落於知念半島上，是前往世界文化遺產齊場御嶽（Sefa-utaki）的必經入口。齊場御嶽入口不開放一般車輛進入，所有自駕旅客都得把車停在物產館前的免費停車場，再走路過去，門票也在這裡的自動售票機購買。換句話說，你不會繞過這個地方，不如就多待一會兒。館內一樓是南城市的在地農產和伴手禮區，沖繩島蔬菜、知念半島的海鹽、還有用南城市吉祥物「NANJIJI（なんじぃ）」設計的文創小物都有，逛起來比一般的公路休息站有趣。二樓有免費開放的展望台，天氣好的時候可以看到傳說中的神之島「久高島」，以及一整片太平洋。

從這裡出發，知念半島一日遊怎麼排

物產館本身地理位置很好，周邊幾個值得停的地方距離都不遠，適合安排一整天慢慢走的南部海岸線行程：

齊場御嶽：琉球王國時代地位最高的聖地，從物產館步行出發約 7 至 10 分鐘。沿途會經過安靜的住宅小路，不趕時間的話可以慢慢走。
知念岬公園：就在物產館後方，開車不到 2 分鐘。這裡的視野很開闊，三面朝海，是沖繩南部看日出或發呆的好地方，人也不多。
Nirai Kanai 大橋：Approximately 5 minutes by car. The instant the tunnel opens, the entire elevated bridge stretches straight out to the Pacific Ocean, making it one of the must-take photos for Okinawa self-drive.

Recommended food at the museum

The food area of the Product Hall has a few local specialties. The tempura made with Mozuku from Naha City is a signature item here. Mozuku itself has a sticky texture, and after being fried, the outside is crispy, and when bitten, there is a faint sea flavor, unlike the general tempura texture.

💡 Editor's private reminder

Inside Sefa-utaki, the entire area is made of natural stone roads and mud paths, with obvious ups and downs. It's very tiring to wear flip-flops or slippers in. It's recommended to change into sports shoes after parking the car at the Product Hall and then head out. The second-floor observation deck is free to enter, and buying a snack on the first floor and bringing it up to find a spot to blow the wind and watch the sea is a great way to take a break.

Buy a few before heading to Sefa-utaki and enjoy the freshly fried Okinawan soba here

Sanzabonpo South City Regional Product Hall Store這間店出售沖繩傳統點心「沙翁（サーターアンダギー）」，也就是外地人常說的沖繩甜甜圈。這裡堅持現炸，出爐的沙翁表皮在高溫下自然裂開，金黃蓬鬆，蛋香和麵粉的甜味混在一起，趁熱咬下去是一個口感，放涼了又是另一個。 在琉球傳統文化裡，沙翁裂開的紋路象徵招福，所以長期以來也是婚禮和喜慶場合常見的伴手禮。 這間分店就在齋場御嶽（Sefa-utaki）的入口旁，這裡同時也是門票販售處。自駕過來的旅客幾乎都會在進御嶽前先在這裡停一下，買幾顆沙翁帶著走，邊逛邊吃，剛好當作爬山健行前的補給。

270-degree Pacific Ocean view, with a glimpse of Kudaka Island

Chinen Cape Park is located at the tip of a cape in the southern city of Okinawa, facing the Pacific Ocean. Due to its geographical location, you can enjoy a 270-degree open view from here, with the sea on both sides. The color of the sea changes from a light green near the shore to a deep blue in the distance, creating a beautiful gradient that is particularly noticeable in the southern part of Okinawa. On a good day, you can see the Komaka Island in the distance, and if you look further, you can see the outline of Kudaka Island. According to the Ryukyu mythology, Kudaka Island is considered a sacred place where the gods descended. From this vantage point, you can feel a sense of serenity that is difficult to put into words. There are no obstructions in the park, and locals often come here to watch the sunrise on New Year's Day or lie down on the grass to gaze at the stars at night.

Places to visit near Chinen Cape: Sefa-utaki, Gajumaru Station, and Kudaka Island

Chinen Cape Park itself doesn't require much time, but it's often combined with other nearby attractions as part of a southern half-day or full-day itinerary. Some of the most commonly visited places include:

Sefa-utaki: The first sacred site of the Ryukyu Kingdom, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It takes only 5-10 minutes to walk from Chinen Cape.
Gajumaru Station & Minatoguchi (Ganjuu Station): Located next to the park entrance, this is where you can buy tickets for Sefa-utaki and grab some local souvenirs or snacks.
Kudaka Island: A 15-minute drive away, this small island is home to a famous tempura shop, has a strong fishing village atmosphere, and is perfect for a relaxing afternoon stroll.

Free admission, easy parking, and suitable for seniors and children

Chinen Cape Park is open all day and free to visit. The parking lot and the adjacent sports center and Gajumaru Station share the same entrance, making it easy to find a parking spot, even during peak season. The walking paths are flat and well-maintained, and there are public restrooms available. This makes it an ideal spot for seniors and children to enjoy a leisurely stroll or playtime without worrying about accessibility or safety issues.

A Sacred Place Without Shrines or Torii Gates

First-time visitors to Sefa-utaki (せーふぁうたき) often pause at the entrance, as there are no typical shrine buildings or gates in sight—only an ancient stone path shaded by large trees leading into the dense forest. This site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the highest-ranking sacred place from the Ryukyu Kingdom era. In Okinawan dialect, "utaki" refers to a sacred space for deities and ancestors, while "sefa" signifies the highest rank. The entire sacred area consists of forests, massive rocks, and springs, with nature itself being the dwelling place of the divine. During the Ryukyu Kingdom period, strict regulations governed the priestess system, and the inauguration ceremony for the highest priestess, "Mune Daitoku," was held here. How significant was this site? Even kings had to change into priestess attire at the entrance to pay their respects, and it was once strictly forbidden for men to enter. Today, Sefa-utaki remains more than just a tourist attraction for locals, with faith activities still taking place on ceremonial dates.

Must-Visit: Sankuri and Kudaka Island Viewing Point

Following the visitor route, you will pass several important ritual sites, with the core area being Sankuri:

Triangle Rock Passage: Two massive Ryukyu limestone rocks naturally overlap due to tectonic movements, forming a triangular opening. The moment you pass through, the light changes dramatically, making it hard not to stop for a photo or a moment of reflection.
Kudaka Island Viewing Point: After passing through the Triangle Rock Passage, the view opens up, allowing you to gaze at Kudaka Island in the Pacific Ocean. In Ryukyu mythology, this island is the landing place of the creator god "Amamikyu," known as the "Island of the Gods," giving a profound sense of significance when viewed from Sefa-utaki.
Stalactite Dripping Water: Next to the entrance of Sankuri, there are two water basins that collect dripping water from the rocks above, historically used for divination and rituals. They are well-preserved, and it's worth stopping to take a look as you pass by.

After Leaving the Sacred Site, Explore More in Nanjo City

Sefa-utaki is located on Chinen Peninsula, an area known for its beautiful scenery. If you're not in a rush, you could easily spend an extra half day here. A 5-minute drive will take you to Chinen Misaki Park, surrounded by the sea on three sides, making it one of the best places in southern Okinawa to enjoy

西原きらきらビーチ在西原與那原海濱公園裡，全長 550 公尺，是沖繩中南部規模數一數二的人工海灘。因為有防波堤的關係，這裡的海浪很平緩，水色清澈，帶小孩來不用一直擔心浪大，在水裡浮一浮、岸上堆沙都很安心。觀光客來這裡的不算多，反而是沖繩在地家庭假日野餐、烤肉的常去地方，氣氛比西海岸那幾個熱門沙灘輕鬆很多。水域劃分為游泳區和水上活動區，想玩刺激一點的可以去活動區試試香蕉船、水上摩托車、浮潛或大腳怪（Big Foot），全程有救生員在場，安全管理算是做得很確實。

Embark on a day-long journey along Okinawa's eastern coast.

Shinza Beach in Uruma City is a great stop on the eastern coast route, with fewer crowds and a more relaxed atmosphere compared to the west coast of Enna Village.

東海灘的早晨，面朝東方，清晨來可以看日出，這點知道的人不多。如果住在附近或不介意早起，值得特地來一趟。游泳區只有 4 月到 10 月開放，淡季來不能下水，但沿著海岸步道走走、盪鞦韆或坐著看海，其實也是另一種玩法，不會白跑一趟。 Location: 沖繩 (Okinawa) 那霸 (Naha) 瀨長島 (Senaga Island) 齋場御嶽 (Sefa-utaki) 玉泉洞 (Gyokusendo) Access: https://www.okinawa-kankou.or.jp/en/access/ Phone: +81-98-868-1111 Mapcode: 1V0 7840 Price: ¥0 URL: https://www.okinawa-kankou.or.jp/en/

Okinawa Once Had Railways, and This is the Only Remaining Station

Many are surprised to learn that Okinawa had a complete "light railway" system before the monorail (Yui-Rail) was established. Before World War II, the Okinawa Prefectural Railway extended three lines from Naha, with the Yonabaru Line terminating here. This station was not only a passenger hub but also a major export point for Yonabaru's specialty "Yonabaru tiles" and southern resources, playing a much more significant role in the local economy than one might imagine today. During the Battle of Okinawa in 1945, the original station building was almost completely destroyed, leaving only a few reinforced concrete pillars. The current museum was restored in 2015 based on original design plans and old photographs, with the waiting room and ticket counter meticulously recreated. Inside, you'll find old tickets, remnants of the tracks, train models, and rare historical photos. The concrete pillars, marked with bullet holes, have been preserved in the back square and were designated as tangible cultural assets of Yonabaru in 2014.

Key Areas to Spend Time Inside the Museum

In the back square, seeing the surviving pre-war pillars in person feels quite different from viewing them in photos. The weathered concrete surface still vaguely reveals the original structure, and standing next to them imparts an indescribable weightiness. The interactive experience area is also worth sitting down to enjoy. Step into a simulated light railway car, where a screen plays a projection combining real scenes and 3D animations, recreating the image of a steam locomotive passing through sugarcane fields. This segment is typically very appealing to children, but adults will also find it engaging, as it contains many details of daily life in Okinawa from that era.

Where to Go Next from Yonabaru: A Suggested Route Along Okinawa's Southern East Coast

Yonabaru is located on the southern east coast of Okinawa Island, not far from Naha but less frequented by tourists, offering a variety of nearby attractions. Here are a few close and conveniently linked spots:

Yonabaru Higashihama Park: About a 5-minute drive from the museum, featuring grassy areas and coastal walking paths, almost empty on weekdays, making it a great place to relax.
Sefa-utaki & Chinen Misaki Park: Drive south along National Route 331 for about 25 minutes; Sefa-utaki is the highest sacred site in Okinawa, while the sea view from Chinen Misaki is breathtaking.
Okinawa World Cultural Kingdom (Gyokusendo): About a 20-minute drive southwest from here, featuring limestone caves and a Ryukyu village experience, perfect for a

AEON Nanfengyuan Store 位於那霸市，緊鄰「那霸IC」和「南風原北IC」交流道出口，距離南風原購物中心僅一步之遙，從瀨長島、玉泉洞、齋場御嶽和沖繩各個熱門景點來的遊客都可以直接抵達。

Okinawa World Cultural Kingdom (Gyokusendo)南方約 20 分鐘的車程，逛完玉泉洞（Gyokusendo）後，順便停下來享用美食、購買必需品、暫時避暑一次便當。
首里城公園（Shuri Castle Park）是沖繩的代表景點，位於那霸市的中心。這座公園以其歷史悠久的首里城而聞名，該城曾經是琉球王國的首都。公園內還有許多其他景點，包括瀨長島和玉泉洞等。地址：1-10-1 Shuri, Naha-shi, Okinawa-ken 892-8510 電話：098-921-5622 時間：9:00-17:00（4月1日-9月30日），9:00-16:00（10月1日-3月31日）票價：成人¥820、兒童¥410 地圖：https://www.google.com/maps/place/%E9%A6%96%E9%87%8C%E5%9F%8E%E5%9C%92%E5%8F%83/@24.2155,126.9845,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x339c1f7a6b6a5a9f:0x6a7a3e7f3f0b9a7!8m2!3d24.2155!4d126.9845Tip: 往北行駛約 10 分鐘即可抵達市區，結束古蹟參觀後在這裡享用晚餐再返回那霸，相較於直接返回市區更為便捷。
Naha City Center / Kokusai DoriDrive for about 15 minutes and park for free at a spacious lot, which is much cheaper than the timed parking in downtown Naha.

早上 7 點開放，晚上 11 點才關閉，與自由行各種奇怪時間表相吻合。

超市營業時間從早上 07:00 到深夜 23:00，對自由行者非常方便。早上趕著出發去北部的話，可以先在超市買個現做飯糰和熱咖啡；晚上跑完一天行程回程，順路進來搶折扣的現切生魚片或串燒當宵夜，都很好。

📚 自駕小貼士

建議把 AEON 南風原排在行程的傍晚回程段。旁邊就是高速公路交流道，從南北各地串過來都方便。避開那霸市區的晚間塞車時段，先在這裡買完免稅品、吃頓晚餐，等八、九點車流散了再開回飯店，停車費省了，心情也好很多。

識名園 (Shikinaen)

識名園: 建於1799年，是琉球國王室規模最大的離宮，主要功能是接待來自中國清朝的冊封使，也是國王日常遊憩休養的地方。二戰期間庭園幾乎全毀，後來花了將近20年才完成修復，2000年以「琉球王國城跡群」之一的身份列入世界文化遺產。

來識名園之前，多數人對沖繩世界遺產的印象還停留在首里城那種厚重石牆和朱紅城門。識名園完全是另一個調性，迴遊式的庭園佈局、心字形的水池、池面倒映著拱橋的輪廓，走進來會有點忘記自己在沖繩。設計裡同時藏著日式、中式和琉球本土的美學語言，放到整個東亞文化交流史裡看，這座庭園本身就很值得細讀。

Must-see spots within the garden

Although the garden's area is not large, it's rich in details, so it's recommended to spend at least an hour strolling around:

Heart-Shaped Pool and Stone Arched Bridge:The pool's flat outline resembles the Chinese character '心' (heart), while the two stone arched bridges, made of Ryukyu limestone, have a subtle, ambiguous feel that's hard to pinpoint as either Japanese or Chinese, but it's undeniably beautiful.
Rokkaku-do:A black-tiled, tiled-roof pavilion built on a small island in the pool, with a roofline that echoes Chinese Qing dynasty architecture, but surrounded by a quintessential Japanese garden landscape – a deliberate blend of styles that now looks surprisingly natural.
Udun (御殿):The king's resting and reception hall, with a reddish-brown tiled roof and a wooden structure reminiscent of a typical Ryukyu-style traditional house, but with tatami-mat flooring inside, creating a harmonious contrast between the two space languages.

This garden was actually a diplomatic backdrop in its heyday.

識名園讓人覺得有意思的地方，不只是庭園設計本身，而是它背後的用意。琉球國在清朝時期一直處於微妙的藩屬關係，冊封使來訪是大事，如何讓對方留下好印象、又不暴露小國的侷限，是真實的政治課題。傳說國王當年特意在造園時把所有能望見大海的視角都擋掉了。使臣走在園裡看不到海，便以為腳下這片土地縱深遼闊，等開口問起，國王才淡淡答說這裡深廣得望不到盡頭。一個小小的造景決策，讓一座海島顯得像個內陸大國，這種以景造勢的邏輯到現在讀起來都還覺得聰明。園內的植栽選擇同樣有算計。梅花、柳樹、福建常見的樹種，都是刻意為中國使節種的，讓人在異鄉走著走著有點像回到家鄉，外交上的緊張感就這樣被庭園的親切感稀釋掉了。
