#springplace2024 #Japan #Okinawa #Shuri Castle Start from the upper floor of Shuri-no-Mori-kan, pass through the wooden gate, and when you see Shuri Teahouse, turn again and you will reach the West Observatory. Since Shuri Castle is on a hill, you can see the scenery of Naha city and even further from here, so it is worth a visit even on rainy days. Transportation: 15 minutes walk from Okinawa Monorail "Shuri" or "Giho" station.

After arriving at Naha Airport in the afternoon, I took the Yui Rail and got off near Shuri Castle. It was still under reconstruction, but there was a lot to see. The view overlooking Naha was amazing, as was the building. It was still under reconstruction, and there was a museum and other things, so it was worth going. I got to see what Okinawan castles were like. I also learned about religion. That's all~ #Okinawa #Naha #ShuriCastle

In 2019, about a year after the restoration was completed, a fire broke out again at Shuri Castle in Okinawa. Most of the buildings, including the power outage, were completely burned down by this fire. 🥹 After the fire, Shuri Castle is currently undergoing hard restoration in 2023. ⚒️ It's good to see the restoration process, or visit the observatory or take a walk, but I recommend visiting without high expectations! 📍 Okinawa Naha "Shuri Castle" 💸 Paid area 400 yen (360 yen when purchased at the tourist information center) 🏷️ If you're looking for the observatory → Paid area recommended 🏷️ You can see enough even if you only visit the free area 🏷️ 15-minute walk from the monorail station to the castle 🏷️ Recommended bus instead of the monorail 🏷️ It takes 1-2 hours to tour Shuri Castle + the park as a whole #Tourist attraction review #Okinawa travel

It was a long time ago, but... I went on a trip to Okinawa!! When you think of Okinawa, Shuri Castle is the place to be!!! When I went, the exterior was under construction, so I couldn't see it as it really was, and it was covered with a Shuri Castle pattern lol It was a happy memory to see and eat things unique to Okinawa, such as hibiscus and sata andagi~✨ #Okinawa #OkinawaTrip #OkinawaTourism #ShuriCastle #ShuriCastleTourism

#tripmemory2022 #OkinawaTrip #PhotoGuideAtTouristSightseeing #ShuriCastleSightseeing #AmazingView #CoupleTrip We went to Shuri Castle Park on a trip to Okinawa. The route into the park from the outer wall is physically hard, but the view is great and there are few people, so we were able to take our time to explore. Also, because there are fewer tour groups and foreign visitors due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there were few people even on holidays. It was a precious time because it was the only time we could see Shuri Castle being rebuilt right in front of us. Shuri Castle Park is a wonderful place where you can feel the history of the Ryukyus just by walking around and looking at the cobblestone roads and buildings in the surrounding area.

#Overseas Travel#Okinawa #Japan Travel Shuri Castle is a city that symbolizes the history and culture of Okinawa🏯🏯 It is also one of the must-see tourist attractions when traveling to Okinawa✌🏻✌🏻 The unique architectural style and stone masonry techniques of Japanese castle-building culture have high cultural and historical value.. 10 points worth visiting Shuri Castle was listed as Japan's 11th World Heritage in December 2000 under the name of "Ryukyu Kingdom Castle Ruins and Related Heritage Group"😆😆 Warm Tips: Because there are many slopes, stairs and stone-stacked roads in the park, it is recommended to wear more comfortable shoes when visiting the park

Speaking of Okinawa, Shuri Castle! It's a shame that it burned down, but the Shureimon Gate and surrounding buildings were safe, so we were able to explore! There is a walking path deep into the castle, and you can get a panoramic view of the Shuri Castle ruins, the surrounding cityscape, and even the sea. 1-2 Shurikinjo-cho, Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, 903-0815 Paid area: 400 yen #Okinawa trip #Okinawa #Shuri Castle #Travel #Amazing view #Historical site #Short trip #Castle #Japanese scenery #Japanese castle #Ryukyu Kingdom

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Shuri Castle (Ryukyuan: Sui Ugusuku) is located on the main island of Okinawa, Japan today. It was the most important political, diplomatic and cultural center during the Ryukyu Kingdom period. Legend has it that Shuri Castle is protected by the powerful spirit "Tamadera" (one of the tombs of the Ryukyu kings). Whenever the castle is in danger, the spirit of the Jade Tomb appears to protect the royal family and the people. There are two beautifully carved dragon pillars in front of the main hall of Shuri Castle. According to legend, the pair of dragons have the power to protect the country and are an important symbol of Shuri Castle's prosperity and security. If there is an invasion by foreign enemies, the dragon pillar will emit light to warn the king. Shuri Castle has experienced many fires and wars, the most serious of which was its almost complete destruction during the Battle of Okinawa in 1945. After years of reconstruction, it became one of the symbols of Okinawa. However, it was hit by another fire in October 2019, and the main buildings were burned down. Reconstruction is expected to be completed in 2026. Currently, you can buy a ticket to see the current state of restoration of the city area - 400 yen/person, and the park surrounding Shuri Castle and part of the city area are free to enter. # Shuri Castle # Ryukyu Kingdom # Shuri Castle Fire

🏖️Environment/Facilities: The mountain path is good, not hot, easy to go by train, Shuri Station, but you have to walk a bit far like walking up from the back of the castle, but the weather is good, sunny but not hot, cool.

Shurijo Castle was constructed around the 15th century, during a time when Okinawa was not part of Japan but governed by the independent Ryukyu Kingdom, also known as the Ryukyu Nation or Ryukyu Kingdom. From 1429, when the Ryukyu Kingdom unified Okinawa, until its dissolution in 1879, spanning approximately 450 years, Shurijo Castle served as the royal palace and the political, diplomatic, and economic center of the Ryukyu Kingdom. It was not only the residence of the royal family but also the location of the central administrative offices and ceremonial rituals. On October 31, 2019, a fire broke out, destroying seven buildings, including the main hall, north hall, and south hall. Restoration efforts are currently underway! 📍Address: 〒903-0815 Okinawa Prefecture, Naha City, Shuri Kinjo-cho 1-2

In Okinawa, you can see the cultural impact of Japan and the United States everywhere. In the American Village, you can find a mixture of Japanese and English cars, and you can also see interesting license plates on the driveways, especially those representing US military vehicles. This time, we participated in a one-day tour organized by trip.com. The tour guide shared some very interesting Okinawa culture and took us to Cape Manza, Kouri Bridge and the most stunning aquarium. You can have fun without driving, so it is a good choice for tourists who only have a few days of vacation.

#Spring0yenTrip Shuri Castle is a symbolic castle of the Ryukyu Kingdom located in Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, and was registered as a World Heritage Site. However, a fire in the early hours of October 31, 2019 destroyed the main buildings, including the main hall. --- ■ Current reconstruction status Reconstruction work is underway. Full-scale reconstruction will begin in November 2022, with completion planned for 2026. Currently, the framework and pillars of the main hall have been erected, and roof tiling work is underway. It is not completely closed, and is maintained so that visitors can see the construction work. There is also a "reconstruction model room" and an "observation deck overlooking the reconstruction work"! --- ■ How to enjoy it as a tourist (things you can still do) The castle ruins area (Shureimon Gate, Sonohyan Utaki Stone Gate, etc.) can be visited. You can see explanatory exhibits on the reconstruction work and an introduction to traditional architectural techniques. The nature within Shuri Castle Park and the surrounding Ryukyu cultural facilities are also worth seeing. Shuri Castle has a history of being burned down and rebuilt many times in the past. It is truly a "Phoenix Castle." The red tiles on the main hall are traditional Okinawan "red tiles." The same technique is said to have been used in the reconstruction. If you are planning to visit Shuri Castle, you can have a "special experience only available now" by seeing the progress of the construction up close!

Shuri Castle is a historic castle located in Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, which was the political and cultural center during the Ryukyu Kingdom era. It is characterized by its red tiled roofs and was registered as a World Heritage Site in 2000. However, the main hall and other buildings were destroyed in a fire on October 31, 2019, causing great shock and sadness to the people of Okinawa. Restoration is currently underway. When I visited, restoration was in the process of being carried out little by little. Nevertheless, I felt the strong spirit of Shuri Castle from the remaining stone walls and the efforts being made to rebuild. It was a deeply moving visit, conveying the hope for recovery and the weight of history. I can't wait to return when it is in perfect condition #0 yen spring trip

Shuri Castle Park is an incredible place to see cherry blossoms while experiencing Okinawa’s rich history. Though the main castle structures are still under restoration, the surrounding park remains open and is a fantastic spot for hanami. The pink cherry blossoms contrast beautifully with the red and white colors of the castle gates and walls, creating a stunning scene. I visited in late January, and the blossoms were at their peak, making the historic pathways even more picturesque. The park also offers great views over Naha, especially from higher points. Since it’s one of Okinawa’s most famous landmarks, it can get busy, but the large open spaces make it easy to find a quiet spot. I loved the mix of culture and nature here—walking through the historic grounds while admiring the cherry blossoms was a memorable experience. Definitely a must-visit for first-time travelers to Okinawa.

#2月好地方2025 Shuri Castle is the most representative historical heritage of Okinawa, witnessing the glory and cultural integration of the Ryukyu Kingdom. This ancient city combines the unique architectural styles of China, Japan and Ryukyu, demonstrating Okinawa's important position as a trade hub in East Asia. Its bright red exterior and exquisite carvings are amazing, especially the dragon pillars and Ryukyu throne in the main hall, which demonstrate the majesty and dignity of the royal family. Shuri Castle is not only a treasure of architectural art, but also a symbol of Ryukyu culture. It carries hundreds of years of historical memory. From the prosperous kingdom era to the baptism of war in modern times, Shuri Castle has always stood tall and has become an important spiritual sustenance for the Okinawa people.

When you're in a foreign country, your phone is your navigation, communication tool, entertainment center, and even your language translator. So, don't forget to bring a global SIM card and a reliable mobile power bank. 🔌 Second, the voltage in Japan is 100 volts, and the plugs are different from ours. Therefore, a plug adapter is necessary. With it, you don't have to worry about all your electronic devices being unable to charge. 🛄 Third, because it's February now, clothes are also very important. The climate in Japan is cold and humid, and the temperature difference is large. So, it's recommended to bring a warm enough coat, a hat, gloves, scarf, and a pair of waterproof shoes. 🎫 Finally, don't forget to bring relevant documents. Required documents include passport, visa, and documents such as public transportation cards and ticket reservations. This way, you can visit various attractions more easily. -- Japan, a place full of adventure and delicious food, is waiting for you to explore. Let's be a romantic cat floating in the clouds together! 🌸🍣🗾
