The area of Naha is rich in history and culture, being the capital of Okinawa Prefecture. An interesting fact is that the city was almost completely destroyed during the Battle of Okinawa in 1945 and was meticulously rebuilt in the post-war era. The closest major tourist attraction is the magnificent Shuri Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the former palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom, located just a few kilometers away.
