🌸 **Sharing of cherry blossom viewing experience at Zakimi Castle Park** 🌸

#Okinawa Sakura Zakimi Castle Ruins Park is located in Yomitan Village, Okinawa. It is a unique flower-viewing spot that combines historical relics and natural landscapes. When the Hikanzakura (Hikura cherry) blooms in spring, the sea of ​​flowers in the park is intertwined with the ancient city walls, attracting a large number of tourists to experience the romance and cultural atmosphere of spring. 🌟 **Geographic location and transportation** Zakimi Castle Park is about an hour's drive from downtown Naha, so it is recommended to drive there yourself. There is ample parking space around the park, making it ideal for self-driving families or group trips. If you take public transportation, you can start from Naha, take a bus to Yomitan Village, and then walk to the park. 🌸 **Cherry Blossom Highlights** - **City walls and cherry blossoms intertwined**: The ruins of Zakimi Castle are one of Okinawa's World Heritage Sites. The combination of the magnificence of the ancient city walls and the beauty of cherry blossoms creates a unique visual experience. - **The beauty of Kanhizakura**: The bright pink flowers of Kanhizakura in the park are in full bloom, dotted between nature and historical sites, showing the unique spring scenery of Okinawa. - **Highland view**: Zakimi Castle is located on a high ground, overlooking the beautiful scenery of Yomitan Village.

This is one of the earliest cherry blossom seasons in Japan, so it is recommended to check the flower conditions in advance. - **Note for self-driving**: Due to the lack of public transportation in the surrounding area, self-driving is the most convenient way.
