📍Detailed Address: The Southeast Botanical Gardens are located in the southeastern area of Chatan Town in the central part of Okinawa's main island. The botanical garden is divided into a northern and a southern section. The content of this travelogue introduces the northern section—the 'Paradise' of plants, which, in addition to plants, also features birds, small animals, and a light show. The southern section is a pure botanical garden area. 🚉Transportation Strategy: It is recommended to charter a car or drive on your own in advance. The location of the botanical garden is relatively remote, and it is easy to take a taxi from the city, but there is a high possibility that you may not find a return ride (i.e., no taxi back to the city after leaving the garden). Chartering a car requires advance reservation. 🗓Itinerary Planning: We arranged a day to charter a car to visit the attractions around Chatan Town. The itinerary was: Ryukyu Village → Zanpa Cape → Lunch → Kadena Air Base → Southeast Botanical Garden. 🕙Business Hours: 9:30 to 22:00 (entry stops at 21:30). 🎫Ticket Price: Adults 70 yuan, Children 28 yuan. ⏳Play Time: 2~3 hours. 🌟Highlights: Light show. From November to April each year, the lights turn on promptly at 17:00 every day. Trees, ponds, and buildings are all equipped with light strips and other facilities. When the lights are on, the park completely transforms into another scene. It's stunningly beautiful, like a fairy-tale world. Free-roaming birds: The botanical garden's environment is one of harmonious coexistence between humans and animals. Cranes, geese, and ducks are all free-roaming, and can be seen everywhere in the park during your visit. 👍Most Recommended: Small Animal Area: In the central area of the park, there are capybaras, land turtles, rabbits, and other small animals. Each type of animal has its own little garden, where visitors can feed and touch them from zero distance. There are vegetable packs for purchase by voluntary donation in the garden, with each bag containing several large leaves. Aviary: This is an area for various rare bird species, also allowing zero-distance contact. Shop: The entrance and exit of the park are at the same location, with a shop near the entrance. The shop sells souvenirs, drinks, and light meals. 📝Note tips: The feeding time allowed in the park is until 16:30 (rabbits, squirrel monkeys), 17:00 (capybaras). If you want to see everything, be sure to plan the order and timing well. 👎Least Recommended: The park's sightseeing car. There is a paid sightseeing car in the park, but it is recommended not to take it, as the area of the park is not super large, and walking is completely OK. ❤Recommended Reason: The Southeast Botanical Garden is Japan's first botanical garden and also one of Okinawa's heavyweight attractions. It can truly be said to be a destination suitable for all ages. Children can learn about the diversity of plants and feed small animals. Traveling together, you can easily take photos that capture the harmonious coexistence of humans and nature. It is recommended to enter the park at 16:00, so you can first see the small animals and the daytime scenery, and then enjoy the night scenery and light show as it gets dark after 17:00. In this way, you will experience both the daytime and nighttime views.

The seats are available for those who order not only bread but also drinks. There are several seats inside the store and one seat outside. The bread is simple and delicious, but the cookies and other baked goods are also delicious. I like figs, so I always end up buying fig rye bread. If you go to Yomitan, please stop by.

Yachimun, the pottery that decorates Okinawan cuisine, is something that everyone will see many times during their trip to Okinawa. It's nice to visit the shops scattered around Tsuboya Street in Naha and Yomitan, but if you want to go yachimun hunting in a short amount of time, I definitely recommend Yachimun Village! Walking along the path surrounded by greenery while listening to the beautiful birds, it's a good distance to explore to the end. There is a free parking lot and toilet at the beginning of the street, which is convenient. The yachimun displayed in front of each shop is also a must-see. Address: 2653-1 Zakimi, Yomitan Village, Nakagami District, Okinawa Prefecture 904-0301 Atmosphere/Facilities: A quiet street that you can stroll around at your leisure except during events. Recommended points: In addition to purchasing pottery, you can also enjoy the climbing kilns, workshops, and charming streets. Average price: From 1000 yen, depending on the dish Budget per person: Some stores accept electronic money such as Merpay♪ Save up some money for Yachimun😄 Rating: Best #Okinawa #Yomitan #Souvenir #Drive #Dishes

#Clear water, young sand, super many fish beach🏖️ #When the tide recedes # Many fish like an aquarium The beach in Okinawa in summer is really not simple. Basically, Okinawa is surrounded by the sea.

Yomitan Village, Nakagami District, Okinawa Prefecture As you would expect, this hotel is always included in the top 5 most popular hotels in Okinawa. The exterior has a lovely Southern European style, the interior has a picturesque design here and there, and the rooms are lovely, so I was able to forget about my daily life and feel very refreshed. The view from the room was also amazing, and I lost track of time. Everything at the breakfast buffet was so delicious that I ended up eating too much. The staff were very friendly, and it's a hotel I'd like to come back to. #Okinawa #LuxuryHotel #ResortHotel #HotelNikkoAlivila

I went to Okinawa for the first time in a while. Personally, I really like Okinawa from autumn to winter. I go there every year at this time. The weather is just right, not too hot. This time I stayed at the Hotel Nikko Alivila, which has a lovely Southern European-style building. The building and the interior are stylish, and no matter where you look, it's picturesque. Just walking around the hotel, both inside and outside, made me feel like I was really overseas and happy. 📍Hotel Nikko Alivila 600 Gima, Yomitan Village, Nakagami District, Okinawa Prefecture #Amazing nature#Accommodation experience#Trip to visit remote islands#Summer trip#Breathtaking views

#沖繩櫻花 For a charming, off-the-beaten-path hanami experience, Yomitan Village Cherry Blossom Avenue is a delightful destination. This picturesque road is lined with vibrant Kanhizakura trees that bloom early in the year, transforming the village into a pink wonderland. Unlike crowded tourist spots, this peaceful avenue allows travelers to take a leisurely stroll or a scenic drive while enjoying the natural beauty of cherry blossoms. The rural charm of Yomitan, combined with the sight of sakura petals fluttering in the breeze, creates a tranquil and almost cinematic experience. Along the way, you’ll find cozy cafés and local shops where you can savor Okinawan treats while admiring the blossoms. If you’re seeking a quiet yet stunning place to immerse yourself in Okinawa’s early cherry blossom season, Yomitan Village Cherry Blossom Avenue is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

This is our 2nd stay at Hotel Nikko Alivila, the resort is beautiful and just next to the nice beach. Service is also so wonderful here. We arrived there around 20:00 and we had a reservation at one of the their restaurants which was open until 21:30 I guess. When we went to check-in, they had information that we have dinner at the restaurant and they let us have a dinner first before check-in, so we have enough time to enjoy the dinner. We were so happy that we could eat our dinner without any hurry. The price isn’t that expensive but the quality is so high, that’s why we love staying at this hotel again and again!

Toguchi Beach Park is a rare place where you can enjoy cherry blossoms with an ocean view. Located in Yomitan, this peaceful park features a beautiful mix of pink sakura trees and blue sea, creating a stunning contrast that’s perfect for photography. I loved walking along the coastal paths while admiring the cherry blossoms gently swaying in the breeze. The park also has picnic areas and playgrounds, making it a great place for families and couples to relax. Since it’s not a major tourist attraction, it felt quiet and uncrowded, allowing me to fully enjoy the natural beauty. Sunset here is especially breathtaking, as the golden light enhances the pink hues of the blossoms. If you’re looking for a hanami spot that’s different from the usual castle parks and mountains, Toguchi Beach Park offers a refreshing blend of cherry blossoms and coastal scenery.

The site is very large, and in the center of the village is a climbing kiln with a row of red tile roofs. You can also enjoy the typical Okinawan scenery. The workshops exhibit and sell their works. However, since the site is large, it takes time and energy to walk around and see all the workshops. When you go to Yachimun no Sato, it's a good idea to check each workshop in advance.

The only drawback is that there is no elevator. You have to carry your heavy luggage yourself. But if you want to keep costs down, the location is not bad so it's a good choice.

Zakimi Castle Ruins is one of the World Heritage sites "Gusuku and Related Sites of the Ryukyu Kingdom" in Yomitan, Okinawa Island🏯✨ It was built in the early 15th century by the famous general Gosamaru, and the stone walls that survived the Battle of Okinawa are still beautifully preserved🌿 The castle walls are characterized by their unique design with arched gates and curved lines! The technique of "Aikata-zumi", in which huge stones are stacked without gaps, is impressive, and I realized the high level of architectural technology at that time😲 From the castle ruins, you can see a magnificent view of the blue sea and Okinawa's cityscape, which is especially impressive at dusk🌅💕 It was a healing spot where you can take a leisurely stroll with a pleasant breeze and a sense of history🚶♀️🌸 There is also free parking and it is easy to access🚗💨 #Okinawa #tripDomestic travel

Yomitan Village, JA Okinawa Yomitan Farmers Market [Yomitan Yachinmu Market] held annually in front of Yunta Market 2025 will be the 32nd time, and it will be held for two days on February 22nd and 23rd. The number of visitors over the two days of the event is about 20,000 people, making it the largest pottery market in the prefecture. There were many people all day who came to buy bargains such as Yachimun and Ryukyu glass at a good price. All the works are handmade, and the firing changes depending on the weather of the day, the quality of the soil, the type of glaze, etc., so there are no two identical pieces. Just looking at the "Yachimun" that shows a different expression one by one is fun. This year, 26 workshops were open. Yachimun markets like this are held in other places in Okinawa Prefecture as well. The next most famous large Yachimun market is the Okinawa All Island Yachimun Market. This year it will be held on March 22nd and 23rd, 2025. The venue is "The Moon Beach Museum Resort Hotel". This is also a very popular Yachimun market. A chance to find one-of-a-kind Yachimun at a great price! We also recommend traveling to Okinawa to coincide with the Yachimun market.
