Visit of Shuri Castle in japan 🇯🇵

#japantrip During my vacations in Naha, I had the delightful opportunity to explore the famous Shuri Castle S Perched on a hill in the city center, this iconic landmark offers stunning panoramic views of the area. The entrance fee was reasonable, reflecting the historical and cultural significance of the castle. Stepping through the gates felt like stepping back in time to the Ryukyu Kingdom era. The architecture of Shuri Castle is truly impressive, featuring vivid red walls, intricate wooden carvings, and grand roofs. As I wandered through the castle grounds, I was captivated by the Main Hall, Seiden, and other ancient buildings. The serene gardens and peaceful ponds added to the magical ambiance, creating a serene escape from the bustle of the city below. After exploring the castle, I also took time to visit nearby points of interest like the Shuri Kinjo-cho Stone-paved Road and Shikina-en Garden. These sites provided further insight into Okinawa's rich cultural heritage. My visit to Shuri Castle was a truly unforgettable experience that deepened my understanding and admiration for Okinawa's history and traditions. This enchanting castle is a definite must-see for anyone visiting Naha.

Shurijo Castle

Shuri castle is a red castle located at Naha, Okinawa, Japan. If you are in Naha for a day, this is your must visit place. Very easy to get to on the Monorail. Get off at the Shuri Station and then it is a short 0.5 mile walk. The grounds and palace are nice. You take a self-guided tour by following signs. Limited information is provided but it is enough. There is a good amount of stairs involved to see everything. You can also walk the ramparts. At the main gate, you can dress up in traditional costumes for a fee and get your photo taken. After you are done, take the short walk to the family mausoleum. It is a separate smaller fee and takes about 15 minutes to see. The castle is worth to visit. It is also a nice experience to walk around during night that castle a surrounding areas a nicely lighted. From the surrounding area there is a nice view of the city. #givethanks #givethanks
