"Heading to Okinawa? These are my Top 5 picks for what to do while you are there.
First, head to Shuri Castle. This ancient fortress is fully restored. and - Shuri is located on top of hill, so you get one of the best views in Naha.
Second on the list, shop and eat on Kokusai Dori. This is Okinawas most famous street. It is busy, busy, busy and it has tons of restaurants and shops with colorful souveniors and authentic Okinawa crafts as well.
Your third stop should be the WW2 Peace Memorial. This is located at the southern end of the island. The memorial has the names of everyone who died in the battle of Okinawa. it is a moving monument that is surrounded by stunning views.
I also recommend that you visit Ocean Expo Park and Churaumi Aquarium. There is a village with authentic Okinawan architecture. and - the aquariums largest tank has a whale shark that dwarfs the audience beneath it.
Finally, after you taste the food - enjoy the music - and see the sites - head to the beach.
Okinawa is a warm, sunny paradise with tons of great Sand, so take some time to soak up the rays and relax."
