Okinawa travel guide

1, Ryukyu Village: A world cultural heritage, it is the acropolis of the famous Ryukyu Kingdom. Destroyed by the US military during World War II, 1992 was rebuilt according to the original regulations. The structure of Ryukyu Village is complex, which can be roughly divided into two parts: the outer contour and the inner contour. There are four doors in the outer profile, such as Huanhui Gate, Jishimen Gate, Jiuqing Gate and _ Gate, and there are many doors in the inner profile, such as Ruiquan Gate, Funnel Gate, Guangfu Gate, Zuoye Gate, Right Gate, Shushun Gate, Meifu Gate and Baiyin Gate. The structure of Ryukyu Village is very similar to that of the Forbidden City in Beijing, Gyeongbokgung Palace and Chingde Palace in Seoul. It is surrounded by the Royal Garden Longtan, the Royal Temple Yuanjue Temple, the Confucian Temple of Chinese Studies and the Paradise of Wealth.

2. Ritual door: the stair door outside the wall of Ryukyu Village. Its prototype is the Three Archways in China, with a Chinese character plaque ball of "the country of keeping rites" and a lot of tang style. The city gate was restored on 1958. The ceremonial gate is also a symbol of Okinawa.

3. Today's Guirencheng Site: The Beishan King Residence City, one of the three mountains in the "Three Mountains Era" of Ryukyu Kingdom in the14th century, was designated as a historical site in Japan. Today, Guiren City is 350 meters long from north to south and 800 meters wide from east to west. It is the largest castle in Okinawa Prefecture.

4. Ishigaki Island: The main island of Yaeyama Archipelago, which is one of the most popular places in Okinawa. Every summer, there are more than 10 fish schools on the seabed of Ishigaki Island, which is quite spectacular.
