[Okinawa] A spectacular spot with a historical romance! Zakimi Castle Ruins 🏯🌿

Zakimi Castle Ruins is one of the World Heritage sites "Gusuku and Related Sites of the Ryukyu Kingdom" in Yomitan, Okinawa Island🏯✨ It was built in the early 15th century by the famous general Gosamaru, and the stone walls that survived the Battle of Okinawa are still beautifully preserved🌿

The castle walls are characterized by their unique design with arched gates and curved lines! The technique of "Aikata-zumi", in which huge stones are stacked without gaps, is impressive, and I realized the high level of architectural technology at that time😲

From the castle ruins, you can see a magnificent view of the blue sea and Okinawa's cityscape, which is especially impressive at dusk🌅💕 It was a healing spot where you can take a leisurely stroll with a pleasant breeze and a sense of history🚶♀️🌸

There is also free parking and it is easy to access🚗💨
