The population of Izena Island in Okinawa Prefecture is 1,322 as of the 2020 Reiwa 2 survey, and it is also known as the birthplace of "Shoenou", the first king of the second Sho clan of the Ryukyu Dynasty.

It is said that the castle was built in the Gusuku period 11th ~ 14th century by King Shoen's grandfather "Lord Sameigawa".

In addition, the "Izena Tama Palace" at the foot of the ruins of Izena Castle has been designated as an important cultural property of Japan. ◆ Izena Beach Izena Beach Located on the south side of Izena Island, this beach has a cobalt blue sea!

The quartzite mah stone laid on the Samure Road resembled the footprints of a samurai, so it was named the Samure Road.
