Overview
Expansive Ryukyuan fortress ruins featuring distinct, serpentine stone walls and ocean views.
These extensive castle ruins sit high on a hill with sweeping views of the East China Sea. The undulating, serpentine stone walls represent the distinct architectural style of the Ryukyu Kingdom. Wild cherry blossoms bloom beautifully here in late January.
Local tips
Because there is very little shade among the ruins, bring an umbrella or hat if you are visiting in the summer.
