This is a UNESCO World Heritage site, which means that it has cultural, scientific or historical significance and therefore must be protected. Definitely check it out if you have the chance!

CASTLE RUINS AND THE BUSIEST STREET IN OKINAWA!
Hello everyone! (watch at least one minute)
This video consists of me and some of my friends going to some cool ruins of a castle that has been maintained very well. It's called Nakagusuku Castle and is located in the Ogusuku region of Okinawa! It was awesome visiting the castle. Also enjoyed the beautiful views of the ocean on one side and city on the other. There are tons of castles on the island so I will for sure be showing more!
-
Then, we went to a street in Naha, Okinawa called Kokusai Street. It is the busiest shopping center in Okinawa and just an all around good time. Had a very unique experience being able to see some of the street performers live and in person!

I really hope you all enjoy the video and if you did, please don't forget to like and subscribe! Until Next Time, See Ya!

Ancient Grave in Yomitan Village
This ancient grave is often referred to in English as Cotton Ruins is a site which was very significant to researchers who were learning about the ancient people of Okinawa. Today the site is accessible and easy to find, however NO PARKING signs are placed all around the site making it difficult to visit without disobeying those requests.

Sesoko, Yagaji & Kouri Islands- Okinawa
So much to explore in Okinawa Japan. We decided to go island hopping and visited Sesoko island, Yagaji island and Kouri island. They are all beautiful in their own way but Kouri island really looks and feels like paradise, the perfect vacation spot.

Chibichiri Gama - October 22, 2015 Yomitan, Okinawa, Japan
While visiting at the Kina Banjo (bahn'-jo) a couple of days ago I asked the curator what other points of interest I might check out in the area. Of course, she talked about Zakimi Jo and the Yachimun no Sato but she also mentioned a place called Chibi Chiri Gama. Gama, in the local vernacular, means 'cave'. She couldn't explain enough to my limited comprehension what it is or what it represents but nevertheless I decided to go there. So Zac and I set out this morning, in the rain, to find it.
I got the general drift of its location by referring to a local sites map. It's somewhere between Murasaki Mura and the Yomitan Fire Department HQ. While driving around Zac spotted the fire department so I got off on a farm road just east of Murasaki Mura and drove up a couple of those dirt farm roads. At one point we noticed a bunch of scrapped cars side by side and front to end in the midst of a field. Then we encountered a grand stench which once experienced can never be mistaken for anything but a pig farm. We drove a little further up the road till we came to what did indeed appear to be a pig farm. There was a guy in one of the large concrete enclosures and I stopped to ask if he knows where to find Chibi Chiri. He brightened up and indicated that we were very close. I understood his directions enough to know that as we left his property we'd go to the right then we'd pass a junk yard (which he said in English). Zac and I knew right then where that was as we had just passed it and commented about what an unusual location for an auto scrap yard.
He further instructed that 30 meters past that I would see an 'Okinawan house' that is really a toilet. The cave would be right next to that toilet. Okay, I thought.
After abundant bowing and domos I began to pull away from his property. At that point a guy in a work truck honked his horn and gestured for me to stop. He pulled his truck out in front of me and gestured as if to say 'Ikimashou' - Let's go! He guided me to the public restroom which indeed looks like a tiny traditional old Okinawan house.
The first thing to greet us when we got out of the car was a sign warning us to watch for snakes. Hmmmm.... a little off-putting but I wasn't going to be dissuaded from our mission. Proceeding to the right of the warning sign is a concrete staircase leading down into a wide, lush green depression in the earth.
A large tree greeted me at the bottom of the stairs and to the left stood a tomb-like stone structure bearing what would appear to be gun slots in the wall of a fort or a castle. Atop that stone structure is a four or five foot statue of a man playing a sanshin before a backdrop of eerie mournful images of suffering souls. Upon close inspection, peering inside the structure through those portholes, one can see multiple carved images of misery and suffering equal to the musician's backdrop.
The main cave is low and quite wide at its entry point. A large sign stands in the middle of the entry path and although it's all in Japanese it is clear that one is not to proceed past that point. Many multi-colored streamers are attached along both sides of the cave's entrance. It is clearly apparent to any visitor that this is a sacred area.
To the right are some natural springs with water flowing toward some smaller caves.
There are a number of signs with information carved in stone or painted upon wood - none of which am I able to comprehend.
Afterwards, I did indeed do my due diligence, researched it and added this to my travelogue:
