Closest to God? The southern island of Kudaka Island

I went to Kudaka Island, which is said to be the first place created by Amami Kiyo, who is said to have created the Ryukyu Kingdom! From Azama Port in Nanjo City, Okinawa Prefecture, it takes about 15 minutes by high-speed boat🛳! (It takes about 25 minutes by ferry) to reach Kudaka Island🏝 There are 6 flights per day, 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon!! After arriving at Kudaka Island, we rented bicycles to sightsee! We were able to go around the island in about 2.5 hours with breaks in between🚲 We weren't able to see all the tourist spots, but we'll introduce some of the recommended spots we visited! ◎Izaiga (📸2nd and 3rd photos) A spring on the northern edge of the village. It is said to be a sacred place and no men are allowed here 🫢 There are stairs, but they were unstable and scary, so I couldn't go all the way to the bottom, The view from the stairs and the top of the stairs was amazing, with blue skies and the sea 😚✨ ◎Miga (📸4th photo) It's 30m away from Izaiga! There is a spring at the bottom of the stairs, and it seems that people used to draw water from there to live. There were stairs here too, but I was too scared to go down 😢 The view from the top of the stairs was similar to Izaiga, but I couldn't help but say "It's so beautiful ✨" lol ◎Habiyan (📸5th and 6th photos) The place where Amamikiyo is said to have landed. It's at the very end of the island, so I was sweating by the time I got there. The road was lush and green on both sides, and the ground was sand? It was white, so it felt great to run! ◎Gajumaru tree (📸7th and 8th photos) On the way from Ishiki Beach to Habyan Suddenly!! A huge banyan tree appeared🌳 It wasn't on the tourist spot list I was looking at, but tourists were taking pictures of it, so I thought it might be famous? ! So I took a photo🫢 They went near the roots of the banyan tree and went through it!! I didn't go through it, but looked up from below lol The sunlight was coming in beautifully🌞 There was a "Happy Bench" near the banyan tree I felt so warm and fuzzy that I sat down🫢! May happiness come to you... ◎Sabani (📸9th photo) After arriving at the port and renting a bicycle I was hungry and it was hot, so I ate shaved ice🍧! Brown sugar zenzai (¥650) As the product name suggests, there is shiratama zenzai under brown sugar shaved ice! It was so hot that I ate shaved ice to cool down 🙈 Local islanders were drinking beer and chatting at the shop from lunchtime, so I guess it's a gathering place for islanders. Kudaka Island has no convenience stores, only three restaurants and about three shops, so it's a very peaceful island! If you want to relax, see the ocean, or get some energy, please come and visit 🏝💕 *Please refer to the information on the Kudaka Island website for the operating status to Kudaka Island. #gw2022jp #OkinawaTrip #RemoteIslandTrip #RemoteIslandTrip
