Naminoue Shrine, which is also worshipped by locals, is also one of Okinawa's most representative shrines for the New Year. It is very crowded during the first three days of the New Year, and many people come to worship at the beginning of the new year.

Naminoue Shrine is one of the eight Ryukyu shrines. Naminoue Shrine is the most prestigious shrine among them, and was revered as the Ichinomiya of the Ryukyu Kingdom.

The most famous benefits of Naminoue Shrine are love fulfillment, prayers for good relationships, and safe childbirth. This is said to be because the goddess Izanami-no-mikoto is enshrined as one of the deities. It is also a sacred place where you can receive many other benefits, such as safety in your home, protection from misfortune, prosperity in business, prayers for success in exams, safety at sea, and good fortune and longevity.
