Nakijin Castle Ruins, also known as Nakijin-jo Site, offers a glimpse into Okinawa's turbulent past. Once a stronghold of warring states, this historic site was eventually integrated into the Ryukyu Kingdom. The castle's ancient walls, built with unique Paleozoic limestone, showcase traditional Ryukyuan construction techniques. Visitors can explore the lush grounds, learn about the legend of Shigema Utudaru, and enjoy guided tours in Japanese, English, or Spanish. Don't miss the cherry blossom festival held here from late January to early February!
