Whenever they hear "Wanza Mao", everyone will be puzzled by this strange name. In fact, "Wanza" means "ten thousand people sit down", and "Mao" is an Okinawan dialect, meaning grassland and open space. Therefore, "Wanzumao" refers to a large lawn that can accommodate ten thousand people to sit down. This beautiful large lawn is located on a cliff by the sea, and the surrounding flora is designated as a natural monument by Okinawa Prefecture. From there, you can enjoy the sea and the sky, as well as overlooking the coral reefs under the cliffs and the magnificent view of the waves crashing on the shore. Wanzuomao is actually very small. It may take 10 minutes to walk around the semi-circle. The iconic scenic spot is that the cliff is shaped like an elephant's trunk, which is somewhat similar to the Elephant Trunk Hill in Guilin. From here, you can see pictures of coral reefs and stormy waves hitting the shore, and there are patches of green plant communities on the land. And here is also the location of film and television dramas such as the Hong Kong movie "Love in Okinawa" and the Korean drama "It's Okay, It's Love".Onna · 23.6 km from Ie

In Nago City, a little far from Naha, you can play with the Churaumi Aquarium ~ Although it is not big, it is fun. Take a small train + automatic sightseeing car, there are Chinese commentaries, eat pineapple ice cream after sightseeing and buy souvenirs. It takes about 1 to 1.5 hours.

The ruins of present-day Guinin Castle in northern Okinawa, Japan, are one of the World Cultural Heritage Sites and a relatively well-preserved ruin. There are nine ruins in Okinawa (including Shuri Castle), commonly known as the "Heritage Complex of the Ryukyu Kingdom". Although only the ruins are visited now, without a single building, according to the scope of the stone city wall and foundation, it is difficult to imagine the scale of that time. At the right time, you can also see a little cherry blossoms, and because of the sea, you can overlook the beautiful sea view.

It was very rich in nature! There were rental bicycles and scooters, and the prices were reasonable. I rented a scooter and could go around the whole area in about 20 minutes. The scenery was very beautiful, so I recommend it! It's a must-go when you go to Okinawa!

A special attraction in Okinawa. It is actually very small and I feel that I can walk around it in less than half an hour. I can see wild pineapples on the roadside. It feels quite fun. There is not much else to comment on. The sea is actually very blue~

This time I went to Sesoko Island in November, which was cool at the end of autumn. I took a walk from the B&B to the clean beach. There were many villages with private houses and not over-development. The important thing is that there were not many tourists. I came to Sesoko at this time of year. The beach is a great photo opportunity.

Okinawa Blue, Emerald Beach is the only reef beach in Japan. The shells are ground into fine sand. It is a little bit prickly when you step on it, but it will not cut you, so everything is fine! Swimming is very good in summer, but not in winter!

The Kouri Bridge is so beautiful under the clear sky. The white bridge is reflected on the blue bridge. Below is the white beach and the clear sea water. There are different depths of sea water on both sides of the bridge. If you drive by yourself, I highly recommend this attraction.
