Former Kiya Takeshi Family Residence / Okinawa World Ryukyu Kingdom Castle Town
Okinawa World is located in Nanjo City in the southern part of Okinawa Prefecture. I went to the castle town of the Ryukyu Kingdom, which reproduces the townscape of the Ryukyu Dynasty era lined with red tile kominka, which is a registered tangible cultural property.
The building in the photo is a private house that miraculously survived the ravages of war and was the site of the most intense ground battle of the Pacific War. On the pillars on the side of the corridor, the scars of shells received during the war were still vivid. (The building was moved here from its original location.)
Since it was relocated, it has been used as a hands-on workshop.
A very valuable building that tells the history of the Battle of Okinawa, I want to preserve it for a long time.
