Easy climb to the top with greenery all along the way. Good view of the ocean with many photo spots. Can imagine the grandeur of the castle in its heyday.

Nakagusuku Castle is visible evidence of the Ryukyu kingdom and is a perfect reflection of that period of time in Okinawa’s history.The natural rocks and the land surrounding the castle are in perfect harmony with the curving walls, this amazing feat allows us to appreciate the masonry skills of this ancient time.
610 yen from Naha near Tomari Port (roughly 40 minutes) to King Tacos Futenma branch then 10 minutes / 1050 yen by taxi to Nakagusuku Castle (Didi app works to call taxis). Now there's a free golf cart to take you up from the ticket office so you don't need to climb uphill so much. Good way to spend an hour with impressive views of the ocean and the city all around - much nicer & bigger than I'd imagined. 10 min walk to Nakamura Residence (closed Tuesday). A bit of a challenge to get a taxi on the way back so we walked half an hour downhill to a busier area to get one from in front of ナカタライト株式会社. From there it's a 1470 yen / 15-minute ride to American Village.

This castle ruin is located in central Okinawa near the Cape Zampa lighthouse. Unlike so many other attractions there was free parking and no admission fee! The castle itself is located with a well maintained park which is quite peaceful to walk through. It was great to be able to climb up on top of the castle walls and get a great view of the ocean. There is a museum located next to the park that had an admission fee that we didn't enter. Would definitely recommend this detour if you're driving through the area.

It is well worth your time to visit Shuri castle again even if you have visited before on previous trips. I travel to Okinawa annually and fins something new at the castle complex each year. This year a new pathway through the Japanese portion of the casle takes you outside onto the castle wall back of the main building for a large panoramic view of the city. There is also new history an area will be planted in chrysanthemums as was in the past. There are new exhibits and performances and you should check on the events calendar because there are night visitation of the area lite in candle light.
