About 200,000 names on the head stones. Soldiers from both sides and about 100,000 civilians. Casualties of war. This should be the second site to visit after the Former Navy Underground HQ. It is situated near cliffs overlooking the ocean. Lets you reflect the cruelty of mankind and what war brings.

Was really touched by a visit to this museum. They really managed to give an insight into the lifes of the people (focused on female high school students) of okinawa during the war time. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the island!

If you want to know what happened to Okinawa and it’s people during World War II, this is the place. It tells you about the atrocities committed on its people and their suffering during that period from the US invasion as well as Imperial Japan army. The museum closes at 5pm but the park is open 24 hours. The park is huge with a great view of the Pacific Ocean. See pictures. There’s also a Korean memorial monument paying tribute to ten of thousands of Korean who were brought to Okinawa during the war by the Imperial army and were either killed or died in Okinawa. I think this place is a must for first time visitors to Okinawa
