You simply must visit Okinawa~~~

Okinawa🏝️ has five names (Okinawa, Naha, and Ryukyu). It is mainly divided into three parts: south, central, and north. Generally, 5–6 days are enough to explore the island. I'll share a 6-day itinerary. Day 1️⃣: First, have fun in the south. The route is Naminoue Shrine - beach - Tsuboya Yachimun Street - Ukishima Street - Makishi Public Market - Kokusai Street. The iconic Shisa lion🦁 can be seen everywhere. Day 2️⃣: Whale watching🐳 (this is a winter-limited activity from December to April). The chances of seeing whales are high. Even if you don't see them the first time, you can go again, so don't schedule this for the last day. It is recommended to take motion sickness medicine💊. Day 3️⃣: Watch the sea and sunset🌄 at Senaga Island, right where the planes take off and land✈️. You can get there by bus from the city center. There will be college students singing, planes taking off🛫 and landing🛬 overhead, and the atmosphere at sunset is beautiful. It's perfect for experiencing the local life. Day 4️⃣: Northern tour (it is recommended to book a day trip if you are staying in the south, as the distance is quite far). Manzamo - Kouri Island - Churaumi Aquarium - American Village. Manzamo is a grassy area large enough for 10,000 people to sit on. The cliff has been eroded to resemble an elephant's trunk🐘. The whale shark in the aquarium has been there for 30 years. Crayon Shin-chan has visited here. Day 5️⃣: You can arrange a one-day cycling tour🚴 in the south. You can search for nearby Hello Cycling on Alipay to rent electric-assisted bicycles. The daily cap is JPY 1,800💴 (Route: Shurijo Castle - Yonabaru Town Park - Chinenmisaki Cape - Higaonna Kanjun Memorial Museum - Okinawa Peace Memorial Park - Ryukyu Mura - Okinawa Outlet Mall Ashibinaa). This route is quite strenuous, so you can choose the route according to your own situation. Day 6️⃣: Boat trip - snorkeling🤿 at Tokashiki Island. Book your tickets in advance on the official website. There are fast and slow boats🚢, so you can choose the round-trip time according to your schedule. Departing from Tomari Port in the south, it takes about half an hour to get there. 🍝Food recommendations: 1️⃣Danbo: A ramen shop🍜 with almost constant queues. You can choose the firmness, spiciness, whether to add onions, and the thickness of the noodles. 2️⃣Soy milk ice cream🍦: Sold at the Churaumi Aquarium. They also have a pumpkin flavor, which is very special. 3️⃣Soba noodles: Delicious broth and chewy noodles. You'll fall in love with it after trying it😍. 4️⃣Sweet potato desserts: Many dessert shops here use sweet potatoes🍠, with unique shapes and sweet flavors. Very creative. 5️⃣Yakiniku: Recommended restaurant: Yakiniku Zipangu Motobu Ranch Wagyu Beef🥩. The plum wine is also very good, and there is a very handsome waiter. Okinawa really doesn't feel like Japan, but it's just as clean and tidy. You'll see many "Indians" working in convenience stores or restaurants. At first, I thought they were Indians working in Japan, but later I learned that this is what the locals look like. Okinawa has a lot of interesting culture and beautiful scenery waiting to be discovered. Pay close attention🤩.
