🇯🇵Okinawa Gyokusen Cave | It turns out there are stalactites here too

#100 Ways to Travel

I have been to Japan so many times, but I never had any impression of where there were stalactite caves. I didn't expect to see one in Okinawa. Gyokusen Cave is located in the south of Okinawa, in a different direction from the Churaumi Aquarium. It takes an hour and a half to drive from Naha.

The entire cave scenic area is not big and can be walked through in half an hour. Although it is much smaller than famous scenic spots overseas, it is very delicate and well maintained overall. The water in the cave is light green, which complements the yellow-white stalactites and is particularly beautiful.

You can also watch the Taigu dance in Wangguo Village when you leave the scenic area. There are four regular performances every day, each lasting about twenty minutes. You can enter and watch without tickets. Plus, two to three hours is plenty to visit the stalactite cave, recommended 👍
