Visit of Shuri Castle 🏰🇯🇵

#cherryblossom2024 During my vacations in Naha, I had the delightful opportunity to explore the famous Shuri Castle 🏯. Perched on a hill in the city center, this iconic landmark offers stunning panoramic views of the area. The entrance fee was reasonable, reflecting the historical and cultural significance of the castle. Stepping through the gates felt like stepping back in time to the Ryukyu Kingdom era. The architecture of Shuri Castle is truly impressive, featuring vivid red walls, intricate wooden carvings, and grand roofs. As I wandered through the castle grounds, I was captivated by the Main Hall, Seiden, and other ancient buildings. The serene gardens and peaceful ponds added to the magical ambiance, creating a serene escape from the bustle of the city below. After exploring the castle, I also took time to visit nearby points of interest like the Shuri Kinjo-cho Stone-paved Road and Shikina-en Garden. These sites provided further insight into Okinawa's rich cultural heritage. My visit to Shuri Castle was a truly unforgettable experience that deepened my understanding and admiration for Okinawa's history and traditions. This enchanting castle is a definite must-see for anyone visiting Naha. 🌺 #localguides #historical #Naha #Shuri #japan
