I couldn't believe how dirty and messy it was—I never expected this in Japan.

DMM Kariyushi Aquarium
Located just a 20-minute drive from Naha Airport, DMM Kariyushi Aquarium opened in 2020 in the ever-popular "Toyosaki Town" area, home to beaches, resorts, and shopping facilities. The aquarium is designed around the concept of providing "zero-distance wonder and immersive experiences”, so you can get even closer to beauty of nature and marine life via innovative displays.
It feels really new and modern.
The space isn’t that big, but the layout is well done and it’s quite different from a traditional aquarium.
It goes for a high-tech, digital kind of style. -

Shuri Ryusen
Located in Naha City, Okinawa, Shuri Ryusen stands on the former site of Chuzanmon Gate, the first gate to Shurijo Castle. It is a studio where you can observe and experience both Bingata, a traditional dyeing technique that dates back to the 13th-century Ryukyu Kingdom, and coral dyeing, the studio’s own original dyeing technique. Its rare gassho-zukuri style building, a traditional steeply gabled structure, serves as a distinctive landmark.
Each piece is a little different and has its own character.
Buying them as souvenirs feels really meaningful. -
Akihabara Electric Town
Large and small electronics shops cluster in this prominent shopping town in Japan. Nicknamed as Akiba, it is a popular spot not only domestically but also globally. Home appliances, PCs, smartphones, the latest digital devices, of course, but animations, games, figurines, model trains and other pop culture items are gathered here.
The scale here is way bigger than Guanghua Digital Plaza in Taiwan.
