[Okinawa Main Island] Enjoy a stroll through a fashionable town

Minatogawa Stateside Town in Urasoe City After the war, when Okinawa was under US military rule, there were not enough houses for US military personnel and their families to live on the bases, so houses for foreigners were built around the bases☺️ Even now, about 60 houses remain in this area, and more than 60% of them are used as shops and offices✨ There are many shops, such as famous canelé shops, tart shops, Okinawa soba shops, and coffee shops, so it is a tourist spot where you can stop by various shops while enjoying the atmosphere of the streets as if you are taking a stroll❣️ *Minatogawa Stateside Town 2-18-3 Minatogawa, Urasoe City, Okinawa Prefecture 901-2134 #gw2022jp #okinawatrip #okinawa #minatogawastatesidetown

Naminoue Shrine

Today, I'm introducing Okinawa, a Japanese holiday paradise just an hour and a half flight away! Beautiful Okinawa offers unique experiences and scenery from south to north. The Naminoue-gu Shrine by the sea in the south is particularly special. You can also visit Senaga Island, known as Little Greece, to see the blue and white buildings and try some Happy Pancakes. Then, head to Kokusai-dori in the city center, where you can spend half a day browsing. Parco City in Soura City is also a great department store. Then, head to the central region for stunning ocean views. I recommend ziplining or other water activities over the sea, or snorkeling in the Blue Caves, where the water is exceptionally clear. Further north, see the stunning fish at Churaumi Aquarium, then stroll around Kouri Island and enjoy the delicious shrimp rice. If you have time, stay overnight at a hotel with a pool in the north—you'll feel so relaxed! #OkinawaAttractions
