Minatogawa Foreign Residential District: Okinawa's Retro Exotic Street

Walking into the Minatogawa foreign residential district in Okinawa is like traveling through time and space to a mini exotic town. This was originally a dormitory area for foreigners during the period when the US military was stationed in Japan. Now it has been transformed into a distinctive street full of literary and artistic atmosphere. The white bungalows, green alleys, and unique "alphabetical block" numbers (A District, B District, etc.) make people feel like they are strolling in an exotic community. There are many specialty cafes, grocery stores, and handmade dessert shops here. Each store is carefully decorated and full of design sense. Every shot you take will be a fashionable blockbuster! In addition to a leisurely stroll, food is another highlight of Gangchuan! You can enjoy hand-brewed coffee, Japanese desserts, or try creative burgers and exotic cuisine that combine Okinawa flavors. While satisfying your taste buds, you can also feel the unique atmosphere of this street. Whether you are a hipster traveler, a coffee lover, or just looking for a relaxing place to spend an afternoon, Gangchuan Foreigners Residential Street will be a great place full of surprises! #2月好地方2025
