Shisa-kun watching over the beach / Silvama Beach It is Silvama (Imadomarihama) located in Nakijin Village in the northern part of the main island of Okinawa. There is one very colorful Shisa here. In Okinawa, Shisa is a guardian deity! They are watching over the beach, so you can spend your time here with peace of mind ^^

Silvama / It is Silvama (Imadomarihama) located in Nakijin Village in the northern part of the main island of Okinawa. It's also called Tomari Beach, but it's Squid where mainly Locals come... The islands on the Horizon are Iheya Island and Izena Island. The people who are sailing are people from other countries. The uncle of the manager here told me ^^ The sea is calm and very comfortable!

Boy jumping into the sea / Araha Beach (Shiokawa Bridge) It is a bridge on the way to Chatan town Araha Beach. Boys often jump into the sea from this bridge, but I was able to see it again! It's a place that becomes their stage on weekends ^^ I was jumping in happily. The sun went down, the surface of the water sparkled, and their silhouettes became picturesque!

Araha Beach / Araha Beach is located in Chatan town, Okinawa Prefecture. Rice military Kadena Air Base is also nearby, so it is a beach with many Mr./Ms. military personnel stationed offshore. On the sandy beach, you can enjoy beach volleyball, BBQ, and marine sports, and it is quite crowded on weekends. Every time I come here, there is an American restaurant with a view of the beach, and I cool off while eating tacos here. ^^

Kabira Bay 2023.07 Memories of my trip to Okinawa Since it was close to evening, I was able to take a picture when no one was around. You can't swim in Kabira Bay because the tide stream fast, but you can take a walk in the bay in a glass boat. You can relax while looking at the seabed in the beautiful bay.

Summer in Okinawa "Eisa" / Speaking of summer in Okinawa, it is "Acer". On July 7th, I went to the Okinawaya Eisa Festival held on Kokusai Street. Eisa is a dance to send the spirits of ancestors to the other world on the Kyu-Bon, and it is an event in which people parade around the village while beating large drums and drums and dancing with their hands on the song sanshin. We also pray for the safety of each family and the safety of their families. The performance of jumping in the second half of the performance was a masterpiece! After this, we will make many jumps. In the heat, this performance is amazing! It is the biggest attraction of the Sakaeguchi Youth Association. At this time, it started to rain, but the performance was completed safely until the end.

It has become reliable. ^^) I hope that this child will grow up and carry on the traditions of Okinawa. The sound of the Drums heard nearby is powerful and really touches my heart.

It was very hot on this day, but when I heard the sound of Eisa's big Drum and tightening Drum, I wanted to sing with Acer Acer♬ and my blood started to rush ^^ I forgot about the heat!

It's Marine Day... Ocean Blue on Ikejima, Okinawa Ikejima is an Outlying Islands, but it is a sea viewing spot where you can go on an expedition by car while enjoying such a scenic scenery by driving along the underwater road, crossing the bridge over the island, and crossing the bridge over the island. The highly transparent sea is so beautiful! Ocean Blue

The Milky Way seen on Ishigaki Island The air was clear, so I could see the Milky Way clearly with the naked eye. Even though it was not so far from the city, the sky was full of stars.

30 minutes by boat from Ishigaki Island. Phantom Island (Hamashima) It is called "Phantom Island" because it becomes so small that it cannot be seen at high tide (when the tide is high) and appears at low tide (when the tide is low). Until a few years ago, it was literally named "Phantom Island" because it completely disappeared at low tide, but now it appears even at high tide due to typhoons and daily waves and winds. The phantom island is a mysterious uninhabited island with Mr./Ms. fragments and pure white smooth sand, and the surrounding waters Unfold with breathtaking clarity throughout the year. The contrast between the color of the clear sea and the white sand beach is truly spectacular! Book the earliest boat in the morning and go ashore It was before the typhoon, but we were able to land safely.

Naminoue Shrine standing on a cliff / Ryukyu Hachisha It is one of the eight Ryukyu shrines in Wakasa, Naha City, "Naminoue Shrine" (Traditional Japanese straw raincoat Uegu). I introduced the worship hall from the Precincts before, but this time I took a picture of the Main Shrine from the back waterfront road. It is said that it was founded during the Ryukyu Kingdom period, but it is not clear that Naha during the Kingdom period was a floating island, and Naminou Shrine was a remote island. That has led us to this day. Restrooms available is the only beach in Naha called "Naminoue Beach", and on a sunny summer day, the sea turns emerald green like this, and the blue sky and the vermilion Main Shrine sitting on the cliff shine with a superb view. Naminoue Shrine was damaged during the Battle of Okinawa, but the Main Shrine was rebuilt in Showa 28 (Showa 28) and the worship hall in 1961 (Showa 36). In Okinawa, the Ume plum rain has ended and summer has begun. On this day, there were quite a few tourists enjoying the SUP, and I was envious while taking pictures ^^;

Nursery school and community center coexist "Asato Hachimangu" / Ryukyu Hachisha It is one of the eight Ryukyu shrines that received special treatment from the Ryukyu royal government, "Asato Hachimangu" (Asatomachi Mangu). On this day, I was doing a great exorcism of Xia Yue, so I went through a circle made of straw. ^^ When prayer, take off your footwear and go up the stairs of the Main Shrine. Shoes are strictly prohibited ^^

Restrooms available in the residential area of Asato, Naha City, with a nursery school on the left side of the photo and a community center on the right. Restrooms available in the Precincts, and behind it is a high-rise apartment building and a gap that is amazing w I think it's a sight you can't see anywhere else. Depending on the time of day, nursery school children are playing in the Precincts^^ "Asato Hachimangu" is the oldest of the eight Ryukyu shrines and was founded in 1466. It was destroyed by fire during the Battle of Okinawa, but was restored in 1993 (Heisei 5). It is also close to Kokusai Street, so please stop by when you are nearby. You can hear the cheerful voices of the children ^^

Wishes come true "Shikinamiya" / Ryukyu Hachisha It is one of the eight Ryukyu shrines in Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture. Restrooms available are shrines that received special treatment from the Ryukyu royal government, and they are called the Ryukyu Eight Shrines. One pigeon never leaves the Torii (shrine gate)! Even if you get closer... Are you waiting for God? I felt something very auspicious. (^^)

Wishes come true "Shikinamiya" / Ryukyu Hachisha It is one of the eight Ryukyu shrines in Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture. Restrooms available are shrines that received special treatment from the Ryukyu royal government, and they are called the Ryukyu Eight Shrines. Restrooms available has a legend in Shikina Shrine, and there is a cave behind the Main Shrine. A long time ago, a woman named Ōama Shirarei found a cave that emitted a mysterious light at night, and found a binzuru in it, and her wish came true because she deeply believed in it. In addition, since he cured the illness of the son of the king of Ryukyu at that time, it is said that he founded the Shikina Palace there. The Main Shrine was built around the 16th century. The pre-war building was built in the style of Sangensha and was roofed with main tiles, but it was burned down in the Battle of Okinawa, rebuilt in 1968 (Showa 43), and rebuilt in 2013 (Heisei 25) to become the current structure. I went to Shikinagu for the first time ^^ I also went to see the cave behind the Main Shrine, but it's a pity that the gate is closed, and it seems that the cave door opens on the 1st and 15th of every month and you can go inside. It is also known as the Power Spot.

Two Ryukyu kings sleep in "Urasoe Yodo" / Urasoe Ruins of the Castle It is "Urasoe Yodo" in Urasoe City, Okinawa Prefecture. Here is the tomb where the two Ryukyu kings are buried on the rock wall of Urasoe Ruins of the Castle. It was devastated in the Battle of Okinawa, but was restored in 2005 (Heisei 17). "Yodo" is a Ryukyu word for "yunagi" and means when the evening waves and breezes calm down. By the way, Urasoe Castle is a castle that was burned down during the invasion of the Ryukyus by the Satsuma army in 1609. Next to this Urasoe Yodo (in the back of the photo) is Hacksaw Ridge. Now it is covered with trees and looks gentle, but at that time it was a place where fierce fighting was fought on the cliffs.
