Traveler highlights

Nakijin Castle Ruins are the remains of a Ryukyuan castle in northern Okinawa. Their distinctive stone walls follow the contours of the hillside, and the site is part of the World Heritage listing “Gusuku Sites and Related Properties of the Kingdom of Ryukyu.” Its elevated setting overlooks the surrounding coast. Hikan cherry blossoms typically bloom around January and February, framing the old walls against the blue sea.
