June 15, 2021 Terina Blouin

The island of Miyako-jima is home to beautiful beaches, perfect for sunning, swimming and snorkeling. When you’re sun-spent, migrate to the Miyakojima City Tropical Plant Garden to marvel at over 1,500 species of exotic tropical plants. Toast your travel companions with Japanese shochu while you nibble on specialty soba noodles.

Harimizu Utaki

Harimizu Utaki is the sacred site where the spirit God who created Miyako Island lives. So it was recommended to pay my respects at this site first of all. Is the white cat a spirit guardian? I think so.
