Shurijo Castle & Kokusai Street Tour

    Experience Okinawa’s past and present on a tour of Naha city. Tour Shurijo Castle and visit its Seiden or Main Hall. Enjoy approximately 50-minutes of free time to explore famed Kokusai Street. Its mix of department stores, restaurants and small souvenir stores blends the cosmopolitan with a bit of local color.

  • WHAT YOU VISIT
    Shurijo Castle - The vermilion-colored castle was the seat of power during the 500-year reign of the Ryukyuan Kingdom. Destroyed in World War II and rebuilt in 1992, the castle is surrounded by stone walls and beautiful gates leading to the Seiden or Main Hall.
    Kokusai Street - Naha's commercial heart is this "International Street" of hotels, department stores, theaters and restaurants.
    Enjoy approximately 50-minutes of free time to stroll through an area that combines cosmopolitan flavor with genuine folk appeal.
    Makishi Public Market - Located on the Main Market Street running south from a halfway point on Kokusai-dori Anvenue. Visit the market on foot; the "kitchen of Naha" is full of energy and excitement.
