Entering Shurijio Castle is like stepping into the history of the Ryukyu Kingdom. Shurijo Castle is located on a small hill and is surrounded by solid walls. Apart from a few squares, there are also holy places used for worship. In certain seasons, people will worship in holy places. Although some buildings were destroyed during the war, Shurijo Castle still maintains the characteristics of the ancient city, while also achieving new development.In December 2000, the Shuri Castle Ruins were registered as a World Heritage Site. On October 31, 2019, a fire broke out due to an electrical failure, causing Seiden (the Main hall), seven buildings including Hokuden (the North hall) and Nanden (the South hall) to be burned down. After the efforts of the Japanese government, the reconstruction project started in 2022, and the restoration will be complete in 2026 at the earliest. During the reconstruction process, tourists can still see the remaining buildings and holy places on the premises and also watch the process of rebuilding the main hall from the outside.Senagajima Umikaji Terrace (little Greek in Okinawa, 瀬長島ウミカジテラス)Located about 15 minutes by car from Naha Airport, it is a shopping and gourmet paradise where Okinawa's local and Japanese product stores are connected to the west coast of Senaga Island. Construction was completed in the summer of 2015. You can enjoy a variety of Made In Okinawa agricultural products, as well as a variety of cafes and restaurants, exclusive to the excellent sunset and airplane viewing platform. It has become a new shopping and sightseeing spot in Okinawa.American Village (アメリカンビレッジ)American Village is located in Chatan Town, central Okinawa, about 20 km from Naha Airport, about 30 minutes by car. After the Second World War, due to factors such as the close proximity of the US military bases, US military facilities, and the large population of residents, the area had an American style. From the most conspicuous Ferris wheel to all kinds of American things, it is like shopping in the United States. It not only attracts a large number of Japanese local tourists but also many U.S. residents in Japan. It can be said that the area is the most internationally colored destination in Okinawa.Kokusai-dori Street (International Street, 国際通り)Kokusai-dori Street is the busiest commercial street in Naha City, with a total length of about 1.6 km. After the Battle of Okinawa in 1944, department stores, restaurants, movie theaters, and other facilities were newly built in the surrounding area, and many people did business here, so it gradually became the most prosperous area in Naha City, also known as "1 Mile of the Miracle".— Itinerary Introduction —Shurijo Castle Tour Itinerary: 9:20 am: Depart from in front of the Prefectural Assembly (via Route 58, Okinawa Prefectural Museum, Art Museum, T Galleria Okinawa DFS Duty Free Shop) → 10:00 am Shurijo Castle (about 60 minutes of free time) → 11:00 am Depart from Shurijo Castle via Kokusai-dori street → 11:40 am Arrive at the prefectural assemblyAmerican Village Itinerary: 12:30 pm: Depart from the Prefectural Assembly (Tomari Ohashi-Bridge, West Coast Road) → 1:40 am Chatan Tourist Office (60 minutes of free time) → 2:40 pm Depart from American Village via Kokusai-dori street → 3:30 pm Arrive at the prefectural assemblySenaga Island Itinerary: 4:00 pm Depart from in front of the Prefectural Assembly → 4:30 pm Umikaji Terrace on Senaga Island (50 minutes of free time) → 5:20pm Depart from Senaga Island via Okinawa Airport and Kokusai-dori street → 6:20 pm Arrive at the prefectural assembly* Please note that due to pedestrian traffic regulations, vehicles cannot enter Kokusai-dori street on Sundays.
