Manzamo
Manzamo remains one of Okinawa’s most coveted, scenic destinations at its spot along the coast of the East China Sea in Onna Village, a town near the heart of Okinawa Island. The name "Manzamo" comes from the Ryukyu word for "field”, and it is said that in 1726, King Sho Kei of the Ryukyu Kingdom praised the area, saying it was "large enough to seat ten thousand people”.
Manzamo is one of Okinawa's most iconic scenic spots. Its name comes from King Sho Kei of the Ryukyu Kingdom, who praised it in the 18th century as “a field (mo) spacious enough to seat ten thousand people.” It is famous for its iconic natural elephant trunk-shaped coral cliff and magnificent ocean views.
A highlight is the capsule toy machines inside the building, where you can get unique handmade ceramic capsule toys with a local touch. If you have an Okinawa FunPASS, you can also stop by the restaurant on the second floor to redeem a refreshing drink—enjoy the view and relax all at once! -

Neo Park Okinawa
This zoological and botanical garden is located about 10 minutes by car from downtown Nago. The vast site, nearly five times the size of the Tokyo Dome, features an area that reproduces the environment of a tropical region.
Neo Park Okinawa in Nago is a super relaxing family destination! Besides riding a retro train around the park, you can get up close and feed flocks of waterfowl and other cute animals in the huge aviary. Don't miss the park's hugely popular, adorably goofy red pandas. If the summer heat gets to you, you can escape to the indoor cafe and dining area, relax in the air conditioning with a meal, and watch the adorable red pandas and other animals up close!

Naminoue Shrine
As the name implies, this ancient shrine stands on a quay overhanging the blue sea, and is affectionately known as "Nanmin-san" by the local people.
Okinawa's Naminoue Shrine is a center of Ryukyuan spiritual belief. Its most distinctive feature is its location atop a cliff, with a red torii gate and traditional shrine buildings facing the sea. Solemn and sacred, it is a holy site where people pray for safe voyages and good relationships.
After visiting the shrine, walk down the stone steps to Naminoue Beach, the only natural beach in downtown Naha. With pristine white sand and clear water, you can also look up at Naminoue Shrine perched high on the cliff. It combines cultural traditions with an island vacation atmosphere, and is both easy to reach and full of character! -
