Nanmeishinshitsu, tucked away in the forests of Yanbaru, Okinawa, is a true healing hideaway. In a space surrounded by forest, take a deep breath and meditate. In the silence, listen to the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind, and you will feel the fatigue and frustration of everyday life disappear. It was a luxurious time to connect with nature and feel in harmony from the inside. It is a special place where you can refresh your mind and body while feeling the power of Yanbaru with your whole body. #nanmeishinshitsu #yanbaru #foresthealing #okinawaretreat

The Yanbaru tour I booked through JAL Pack starts from Okuma Private Beach & Resort and takes about 3 hours to go around Yanbaru Forest by car. You can choose between 9am and 1:30pm. I took the afternoon tour. There were only two of us, so we were guided in a large car and drove slowly through Yanbaru Forest, and we got off along the way to explain the plants and animals.☺️ It was a little rainy so I was worried, but they contacted me the day before to tell me what they would do if it rained, and they told me that we could go ahead and there are animals you can see more easily if it rains. On days when the weather looks bad, I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting a little wet. A hoodie or something. Sneakers are good for your feet. But we didn't walk much and they even lent us an umbrella. I didn't see any Okinawa rails, but it was a fascinating tour where I could learn about an ecosystem that is different from that of Honshu. #Okinawa #OkinawaTrip #YanbaruForest #YanbaruForestTour
