Shikina-en Garden,
thingstodo

Shikina-en Garden,

#thingstodo Shikina-en Garden, rebuilt after the Okinawa War, was originally built as former Ryukyu kings' 2nd residence and probably summer house in 18th century [1799 AD]. Even after it was rebuilt, it was designated as one of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Unlike other traditional Japanese gardens of imperial families or dignities, which are often composed of pond, flower trees, bamboo trees, stone bridge, artificial hills and rivers, Shikina-en Garden has Chinese-style pavilion, pond in Chinese "heart" shape, fewer flower trees, but lots of tall trees, especially banyan trees, which can shield visitors or users from sunshine even though trees' roots develop and grow like spiderwebs. The entrance fee for the Garden is $ 400 Yen.

Highly cost-effective hotel!

The hotel environment is very comfortable and Instagrammable. Toiletries are provided. The hot spring is not very big, but after a day of walking around, soaking in the hot spring at night feels very relaxing. There is a private parking lot 🅿️. Note that room cleaning service is only provided if you stay for 3 consecutive nights. It is about a 10-minute walk to Kokusai Street.

Okinawa|Freshly Sliced Tuna Sashimi, A Burst of Fresh Flavor!

The Tomari Fish Market in Okinawa is a haven for the freshest and most local seafood. As you step into the market, you're greeted by the aroma of the sea, with stalls displaying freshly caught fish, each piece exuding the sweetness of the ocean. It's a must-visit for food lovers. The market's biggest attraction, besides the wide variety of seafood, is the free cooking service! You can choose your freshly bought seafood and have it prepared by the stall owner or at a dedicated service counter. Whether you prefer it steamed, in soup, or pan-fried, you can enjoy freshly cooked seafood tailored to your taste. There's even a professional on-site to slice the fish, showcasing their skill and ensuring the freshness of the fish. I ended up choosing a box of assorted tuna sashimi. Each piece was vibrant in color, with evenly distributed fat, melting in your mouth with a burst of oceanic sweetness. Sitting in the outdoor seating area of the market, enjoying the sea breeze while savoring this simple yet rich delicacy, made me feel closer to the ocean. If you love tasting fresh seafood and enjoying the authentic atmosphere of a fishing port, the Tomari Fish Market is a stop you can't miss!

Fukushūen Garden

#okinawatrip This is a must see garden in Naha! It has beautiful spots for photo opportunities! If you go, try to make it a little before the sun goes down so you can see it in the light as well as lit up once it gets dark. The price is very worth the visit- not expensive at all. They have bathrooms, plenty of spots to sit and rest, and drink/ice cream vending machines. If you want to feed the fish in the various ponds you can purchase food for 100Y. Biggest perk is it is dog friendly so bring your pup, but make sure they are on a leash and you bring bags to pick up after them if they go poo.

Okinawa Travelogue

Okinawa Travelogue

Okinawa, an island surrounded by clear blue sea and sky, is full of rich southern charm and unique Ryukyu culture. This time, I decided to slowly explore the beauty of Okinawa, without rushing the itinerary, just to savor the charm of this island. On the first day, I went to Kokusai Street in Naha, one of the busiest streets in Okinawa, lined with various specialty shops, souvenir stores, and Okinawan cuisine restaurants. I tasted the famous Okinawa soba, with its chewy noodles and rich broth, simple yet flavorful. In the evening, I visited Shuri Castle, the former palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom, which looked even more majestic under the night sky. Although some buildings were damaged by fire, you can still feel its historical charm. On the second day, I took the bus and monorail to explore the natural scenery of Okinawa. The first stop was Kouri Island. From the Naha Bus Terminal, I took a bus to Nago, then transferred to a shuttle bus to Kouri Bridge. As I crossed the bridge, I was greeted by a vast expanse of blue sea, making me stop to admire the view. I strolled along the beach, feeling the gentle sea breeze, and tasted the famous Kouri shrimp rice at a local shop, with its sweet shrimp meat and special sauce, leaving a lasting impression. Next, I took a bus to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. The Kuroshio Sea tank here houses giant whale sharks and manta rays, making you feel like you are in an underwater world. I stood in front of the transparent viewing window, quietly watching these giant creatures swim gracefully, feeling both awe and emotion. On the last day, I chose to visit Gyokusendo Cave and Ryukyu Village in the south, also using the bus for transportation, to experience Okinawa's natural wonders and traditional culture. Gyokusendo Cave is the largest limestone cave in Okinawa, with colorful lights reflecting off the stalactites and stalagmites, making it feel like entering a fantasy world. At Ryukyu Village, I watched traditional Ryukyu dance performances and personally experienced Bingata dyeing, feeling the unique charm of Ryukyu culture. Although the three-day trip to Okinawa was short, it was full of surprises and emotions. This island not only has enchanting sea views but also rich history and culture, making it hard to leave. I think, next time I come, I might explore the beauty of the remote islands more deeply and continue to discover the endless charm of Okinawa.

If you're visiting Okinawa for the first time, this is a no-brainer.

If you're visiting Okinawa for the first time, this is a no-brainer.

If you're not driving in Okinawa, I really recommend joining a day tour, so you can just focus on taking photos 😂. When I took the bus to the outlying islands later... ✏ To avoid getting up early, I chose the classic North Line tour that meets at 8:45. We didn't get back to the prefectural office until 19:00. ✨ Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium 2 hours 30 minutes The only paid attraction worth visiting. Follow Crayon Shin-chan to the aquarium. The highlights are the whale sharks and dolphin show, the rest can be skipped. Two and a half hours is enough for a rough visit. If you want to explore it thoroughly, I suggest spending a whole day there, as the round-trip bus ride is time-consuming. 🐋 ✨ Kouri Beach 20 minutes Check in at Kouri Bridge. The sea in Okinawa is really nice. It was cloudy and drizzling at the time, but the sea was still clear and transparent. 🌊 ✨ Onna no Eki Nakayukui Market 20 minutes There is a store on Kokusai Street. It's a good place to stop and rest, and recharge your energy. ✨ Cape Manzamo 20 minutes (JPY 100/person) Well, it was backlit in the afternoon, but I did see a rainbow that day. 🌈 ✨ American Village 50 minutes Oh my god, it's like an open-air set. It's a bit... depending on your personal preference. But it's really good for taking photos, especially at night when the lights are on. The area is not small, so 50 minutes is a bit rushed. 🏰 💁 I weighed my options and decided to join a day tour, as I didn't want to tire myself out. It was actually quite good, and the time at each attraction was very precise. 😅 It was a bit rushed, maybe because I spent too much time taking photos.

Okinawa's Sea.

This time, I visited a place in Japan that has a slightly different vibe compared to other locations. Unlike Osaka or Tokyo, Okinawa feels like a place full of youthful energy, where you can enjoy the sun and the beach. A must-visit spot in Okinawa is Shuri Castle. Although a fire in 2019 destroyed most of the buildings, I still went there to satisfy my curiosity and for the sense of ritual. The place was crowded with visitors, and many well-preserved structures could still be seen. As for the main castle, we could observe its restoration progress from outside the fence, witnessing the meticulous craftsmanship of Japan. For travelers interested in exploring Japanese history, it remains a worthwhile destination. Okinawa's beaches are among the best in Asia. The endless sea paired with vast grasslands makes it perfect for family outings and relaxation. During sunset, you can witness a perfect sunset as the sun slowly dips into the horizon, accompanied by various aircraft taking off and landing, making it a truly dreamy experience.
