Long a popular destination for Japanese travelers looking for a relaxing beach break, Okinawa is gaining international popularity. Coral reefs provide great snorkeling and diving spots, but if you prefer to see beautiful fish without getting wet, Okinawa also has a fine aquarium. The ancient forests around the city offer a chance to view rare flora and fauna.

Okinawa City is the second largest city in the prefecture located in the central region of Okinawa Prefecture. An English signboard stands out on Gate Street, which extends in front of the second gate of Kadena Air Base. At night, the entertainment bar leaks the lively sounds of American rock and Okinawa's "Sanshin." It is a nostalgic town of Okinawa where the cultures of postwar America and Okinawa are mixed and the unique culture of Koza, which is the downtown area of ​​Okinawa City, was born. Although it is an area that is not often introduced in guidebooks, Okinawa City is a city filled with the history of Okinawa after the war. If you know Okinawa City and Koza, you can see Okinawa.
