Shikinaen (識名園) was constructed at the end of the 18th century as the second residence of the Ryukyu kings. It features beautiful, relatively simple, wooden palace buildings with Okinawan style, red tile roofs, and a spacious Japanese style landscape garden with a central pond. While the garden is designed in a style seen elsewhere in Japan, the architecture and flora give Shikinaen a uniquely Okinawan flavor.
Your eyes won’t be disappointed, this place is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
Family Note: Don’t forget to bring some bug spray as we did. 😅 Mosquitoes will have a feast.
