Review - Places to visit in Okinawa, Japan 🇯🇵💫
When many people think of Japan, they probably think of Tokyo, Osaka, or Hokkaido first. But in fact, Okinawa is another city that is very worth visiting. You can go in both summer and winter. It is easy to travel in every season. Most importantly, the cost of living is very cheap.
💫 The highlights that you must not miss are:
• Itoman City Market Yukura is an indoor fish market. There are seats on the 2nd floor. You can buy and have them cooked upstairs. Each shop has a deal. The seller will lead you. The tray in the picture is only 100 baht. You get sweet shrimp and uni. It's a great deal.
• Aeon Mall, go shopping for souvenirs, snacks in bags to take back to Thailand. But the highlight is the freshly made snacks. In the picture, there are crispy Japanese sweet potatoes, very delicious, sweet, Dango, fragrant and delicious. The sauce is the best. Made fresh, Hokkaido imported milk, fragrant and creamy, not like plain milk in Thailand, not fishy, very delicious to drink, fruit juice, this is normal, a bit too sweet, the percentage of fruit is a bit low.
• Kokusai Dori Street is the most famous shopping and eating area in Okinawa. It feels similar to Siam in our country, but the shops are lively in the evening, there are many shops open. I recommend that you come here. If you are looking for a place to stay, you can stay in this area. It is not isolated and easy to walk.
Things you must not miss are Blue Seal ice cream, a famous ice cream shop here. You can only find it in Okinawa, Gong Cha, a famous bubble tea shop, is also available here. As for ramen + Mexican style rice, it is a shop on the street. It has no name. It is sold by an old lady.
• The highlight of American Village is the large Ferris wheel. You can ride it. The price is not too expensive, about 200-300 baht. There are many shops in the village. Gives a 90's American feel.
• Churaumi Aquarium, entrance fee 1,880¥, is a large aquarium with 2 whale sharks on show. We have a full review in the previous post. Go check it out.
Although it is a secondary city, it is just as worth visiting as the main cities. Most importantly, it costs much less. We went in the winter. The weather was cool and comfortable. There was some light rain at times.
🚌 Transportation: Mainly by bus and train.
