Yachimun no Sato

A traditional pottery village in Yomitan Village in central Okinawa, home to 19 workshops. Yachimun is the Okinawan word for pottery, a traditional craft characterized by earthy colors, substantial forms, and bold painted designs. Pottery production flourished in Yomitan after Jiro Kinjo, a potter designated a Living National Treasure, moved his kiln there from Naha. Today, the village is known as Okinawa’s leading center for yachimun pottery.

The entire pottery village retains a simple, natural feel. Walking around doesn't feel like browsing an ordinary shopping mall, but more like strolling through a small Okinawan village. Looking at the workshops and pottery along the way really gives you the feeling of traveling.

Udatsu Old Street has a more quiet, low-key feel. It’s not the kind of lively tourist area you might expect, and that’s exactly why it preserves such an authentic historic atmosphere.

The white walls on both sides and the distinctive “udatsu” roof ridges really stand out. If you look closely, you can see they were actually a symbol of wealth in the past.

The area is really quiet and peaceful. It feels like you’ve stepped away from the city.

It feels like a more upscale mix of Tamsui + Xinyi District.

Kind of boring during the day—nighttime is where it really comes alive.

Tokyo Tower

Tokyo Tower was born in 1958. When it was built, Tokyo Tower proudly stood out as the tallest steel tower in the world. At a height of 33 meters, it was taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris. It is located in Minato Ward in the center of Tokyo. Take in sweeping views of the city from the observation deck. Currently under renovation, it is always changing.

You have to find the right angle for photos, or it can easily end up looking like a construction scaffold 🤭
