1 7D 6N OKINAWA & TAIPEI (ITINERARY FOR DEPARTURE DATE 28OCT 12-31DEC 12) MENSORE! OKINAWA WELCOME TO THE PARADISE OF JAPAN Okinawa is home to a unique culture that differs considerably from that of mainland Japan. Until the islands were invaded by the Satsuma domain (present day Kagoshima Prefecture) in 1609, Okinawa existed as an entirely separate country from Japan, known as the Ryukyu Kingdom. After the invasion, the Ryukyu Kingdom served as a tributary state to Japan, but continued to be governed by the royal family from Shuri Castle. It was not until 1879, a few years after the Meiji Restoration, that the kingdom was abolished and incorporated into Japan as Okinawa Prefecture. The castles of Okinawa, known as "gusuku" in the Okinawan language, are among the most vivid monuments that testify to the unique cultural and historical heritage of the Ryukyu Kingdom. In the year 2000, five castles and four related sites were designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites under the collective title of "Gusuku Sites and Related Properties of the Kingdom of Ryukyu".

The numerous windows in the underwater structure allow visitors to see the tropical sea life swimming around in their natural habitat. On the walls between the windows are posters with the names and pictures of the fishes, allowing guest to make a list of the ones they spot. Head right next door to the other pier for a glass-bottom boat ride. The boat rides go a little further out into the ocean and give a better chance to see the extensive coral reefs along with heaps of fishes. Capture some shots at the scenic Cape Zampa before continuing to Manzamo - The large green grassy area along the west coast of Onna Village. It is a field created on ancient coral reefs, and said to be capable of seating 10,000 people. The ocean is 50 meters below the field, and the sights and sounds of crashing waves are hard to describe. The rare plants in this area are designated as protected species by the Okinawa Prefecture.

Just a few stone walls and foundations remain of the former castle. The site is included as one of the UNESCO World Heritage designated Castles of the Ryukyu Kingdom. Nearby is the Sea Road - the longest Kaichudoro, the Road through the Sea, in the East. Like stepping into a time machine, Ryukyu Mura is a recreation of what life would have been like in the ancient Ryukyu kingdom we now call Okinawa. This historical village was created over a quarter century ago in an effort to keep the distinctive traditions and culture of Okinawa alive. Visitors to Ryukyu Mura have a chance to tour inside the historical Okinawa building as well as see the artisans and craftsmen engaged in their customary trades inside. The chance to see a weaver create a local traditional textile (hanaui) or a craftsmen produce traditional pottery, Sanshin (Okinawa string instrument), fabric, and paper is a rare sight in Okinawa these days. Another popular trade exhibit is the sugar cane factory, where the famous Okinawa brown sugar is still made the traditional way using water buffalo to power the sugar cane press. Next stop is the Kadena Road Station overlooking the US Air Base. The Mihama American Village is a large entertainment complex located in central Okinawa Honto. Many American military bases are located in the area, and the entertainment complex' theme of Americana provides a nostalgic pleasure for residents of the bases as well as an interesting diversion for the locals. The Mihama American Village resembles a big American shopping mall with lots of shops, restaurants, cafes and a large parking lot.

Shuri Castle (Shuri-jo) served as the administrative centre and residence of the Ryukyu kings for several centuries until Okinawa became a Japanese prefecture in The castle is included as one of the UNESCO World Heritage designated Castles of the Ryukyu Kingdom sites. Shikinaen was constructed in the end of the 18th century as the second residence of the Ryukyu kings. It features beautiful, relatively simple, wooden palace buildings with Okinawan style, red tile roofs and a spacious Japanese style landscape garden with a central pond. While the garden is designed in a style seen elsewhere in Japan, the architecture and flora give Shikinaen a uniquely Okinawan flavour. In 2000, Shikinaen was among the sites added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites under the title Gusuku Sites and Related Properties of the Kingdom of Ryukyu.
