Taketomi Island Village
nature
竹富島
Preserved Ryukyu village of red-tiled roofs and buffalo carts.
Just 10 minutes from Ishigaki, this island strictly preserves its traditional architecture. The roads are white coral sand, and the houses have red-tiled roofs topped with Shisa statues. Water buffalo carts slowly tour the village while guides play the sanshin.
