Product Info

- Attraction Introduction -

  • Shurijo Castle
    Shurijo Castle is one of Okinawa's most iconic historical and cultural sites, serving as the political, diplomatic, and cultural center during the Ryukyu Kingdom era. Passing through the famous Shureimon Gate, you can experience a unique architectural culture that blends Chinese, Japanese, and Ryukyuan influences. The main hall of Shurijo Castle is currently undergoing restoration and reconstruction, with completion expected in November 2026. Within the park, you can learn about the restoration and reconstruction process up close and witness Shurijo Castle gradually regaining its former glory.
  • Mihama American Village
    Mihama American Village, with its strong American atmosphere, is one of the most popular shopping and leisure areas in central Okinawa. The park features specialty shops, restaurants, cafes, and a seaside streetscape, with colorful buildings that are perfect for a photo spot.
  • Okinawa World & Gyokusendo Cave
    Okinawa World is a large theme park that combines natural landscapes, Ryukyu history, and traditional culture. The most iconic attraction in the park, Gyokusendo Cave, was formed by nature over a long period; inside, you can admire spectacular stalactite formations. Additionally, you can stroll through the red-tiled traditional folk house district and experience Ryukyu culture.
    ※The Eisa drum performance in the park is usually scheduled from 14:30 to 15:00. Please understand that it may not be possible to watch it due to traffic conditions on the day.
  • Okinawa Peace Memorial Park (This attraction will not be visited starting from October)
    Okinawa Peace Memorial Park is an important site established to mourn the victims of the Battle of Okinawa and pray for world peace. Facing the Pacific Ocean, the park offers vast coastal views and features facilities such as the Cornerstone of Peace and the Okinawa Prefectural Peace Memorial Museum, allowing travelers to further understand Okinawa's modern history.

  • Hoshino Resort Banta Cafe (This attraction will not be visited before October)
    Located on a cliff beside a private sandy cove, this is one of the largest seaside cafes in Japan. You can choose your favorite seating area, enjoy a quiet and independent corner, and feel the charm of the Okinawa blue!
    *During the closure of Hoshino Resort Banta Cafe: November 27 to December 10, 2026, the itinerary will be changed to visit Onna-no-Eki Nakayukui Market instead.
  • Senagajima
    Senagajima boasts stunning blue sea views and is famous for its pure white buildings built along the hillside, creating a landscape reminiscent of a Mediterranean resort town. It is a highly popular photo spot in southern Okinawa. The island features restaurants, cafes, and specialty shops, and because it is close to Naha Airport, it is also a popular spot for watching planes take off and land up close.

※In the event of large-scale events, traffic restrictions, or vehicle entry bans at Senagajima, the visit to Senagajima will be canceled on that day; in such cases, the stay at American Village and Okinawa World will generally be extended by approximately 30 minutes each.
