#tripaway Okinawa is infamous for its peach. Why not trying momo plucking while travel? Momo is peaches in Japanese. I thought the momo tree would be as tall as mangosteen tree but it wasn’t. It’s only as small as rose apple (Jambu air) tree and the momo is easy to be plucked. Just choose the biggest one and pull it gently. At the farm, we can taste two momos each. Yummy!! The momos are cream and red in colours and their taste are sweeter than sweets. I had never tasted momo all my life. I was so happy that we could bring the momos we plucked home as they have to be kept for 2-3 days before the fully ripe and ready to be eaten. #tripaway

I want to feel the depth of a city must participate in the local festival is really great! with mommy and daughter wearing a yukata to participate in the integration into the locals festivals to feel the warm atmosphere, This is the one I saw most people fireworks are like meteors near From the sky sitting on the beach, we too good 50 minutes, have the opportunity to come to Japan must experience once.

Every time I take a baby's trip, I can't wait to put my home in the packing bag. Compared to staying at the hotel, Sana prefers to stay at the hotel! This is a set of seaside villas that are rented by the sea when you are traveling in Okinawa. It is really convenient. Baby products are all available. You can let the children play with the sand and play tired and go back to the room to take a shower/ Hh / interest, drilling into tatami or tents for children to flip night with a cute projector baby sleeping home location is also very convenient, because Okinawa is A long island, chooses in the middle, no matter where you go to the top aquarium or the lowest airport, it won't be too far away. There is also a nice name in the homestay: SEA YOU LATER There are many fun places nearby such as 10,000 dolls, residual wave A, Ryukyu Village, Zhenrong Tianyu.. ..... are very close to the airport from the high-speed to less than an hour, to the aquarium is not more than an hour, the entire highway is not traffic jam. Convenience store where you can walk, there is a big supermarket and many restaurants within 5 minutes by car. It can be said that the location is perfect.

[cp] It is by the sea, above the cliff, shaped like an elephant's nose, but it is a grassland that can accommodate thousands of people. This is the 10,000-seat wool of Okinawa, Japan. It is the location of the Hong Kong film "Love Okinawa" and has become the place where most Okinawa games must be played. This is not very big. I drove to the parking lot and walked for five minutes. The opposite is the tens of thousands of hairs that look like elephants and noses. Looking down, the sea is slap on the reef, and there is a piece of it. The waves of the film, there are many people coming here, from the entrance to the exit is a line, you can go out slowly along the crowd.

This world has such a store boss wife handmade candles h beauty do not want! personally help me to do Thai massage, massage is finished, there is a boss, a ceramic cup made by myself and a very beautiful hot tea on the plate, which has cured my tired travel with the baby and the bosss hand painting. !! Every time I see such a shop, I will tell the children that you dont need to be too powerful, do what you like, you can support yourself, and you can be very happy. If you open a small shop like this in the future, it is enough.

Okinawas "Everyone" has a history of more than 100 years. The ramen and puffs here are very famous. Local friend Xiao Dai told me that because this place needs to be driven by car, few mainlanders can come and queue up all day. This is also It doesn't matter, it is the location of love. The environment is so beautiful. may line up, business is too good

It is a good choice to go to Okinawa on New Year's Day, and there will not be many tourists. The Qingliang Islands on the island is a very good choice. From Okinawa Island to Ajia Island, we helped us pack a yacht through the homestay administrator. Vacations, privacy is very important. I usually like the charter in the economically allowed situation~ The dinner on the boat is really my catch, such as fake replacement! Sea fishing is not the only purpose of my trip to the sea. Diving is also a must-see. The last time I went to Okinawa, I went to see whale sharks. This time I went to see clownfish and corals. well? Its a great thing to have an OW diving license. Of course, if you have a diving guide on board, is there any relationship with a diving certificate? Anyway, he/she will take you to experience. Safety? There is also a safer place than Japan Oh, you ask me if the temperature is 16 degrees, will it be cold? 5mm diving suit silk is no pressure, I am still worried about heat stroke... Although heatstroke is a joke, it is definitely not cold. In Japan, most golf clubs are membership-based, so how do non-members experience golf? The B&B I live in is simply a omnipotent existence. The administrators strange request for me is actually accepted, and I cant accept it!

This is a private beach in Okinawa, Japan, about 15 minutes away from the Gu Yuli Bridge. There are clean beach lawns and sun loungers. When the sun is good, you can lie down here for an afternoon to see the tides.

I tried the sweet caramel apple Dutch Baby Pancake 🥞 It was delicious with a melting sweetness! Next time, I want to try a non-sweet flavor!! The interior of the cafe is designed like a cave, giving it a hidden, cozy atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy your time at the cafe!

A Stylish Lunch Surrounded by Nature in Okinawa

This is a shop called 'Kurumiya' located in Okinawa. 📍 1871-1 Toguchi, Kitanakagusuku, Nakagami District, Okinawa Prefecture It's a very stylish shop surrounded by nature. The interior is cute, and everywhere you look inside the shop is filled with adorable decor. 🌿 For food, we ordered a curry lunch and a sandwich! The curry, rich with spices, was really delicious. The sandwich also had ingredients spiced to perfection, and the crispy, fragrant bread was a perfect match, making it really tasty. The tableware had an antique feel, and each piece was charming.

[Okinawa] Recommended spots you can go to without a car

Umikaji Terrace is a recommended spot in Okinawa without renting a car. You can get there by bus from Naha Airport for 250 yen. There are hotels and restaurants here, and since it's close to the airport, you can even see the planes! As soon as we arrived at the airport, we went here with our suitcases and ate Okinawa's specialty taco rice on the restaurant's terrace! We went at a time when we could see the sunset, so we were very satisfied to be able to eat delicious taco rice while watching the beautiful view. 📍174-6 Senaga, Tomigusuku City, Okinawa Prefecture #Domestic Travel Record

It’s enough to read this article about Okinawa’s hidden delicacies

#ItinerarySharing #100 Ways to Travel Okinawa is close to the sea but by no means only seafood is good! If you do a good job of data collection, eating beef and pork here is even better than eating in Tokyo and Osaka, and the price is much cheaper. Seafood 📍Parking at the Fishing Harbor Market Smaller in scale, but only locals go there and fewer travelers. And the airport is only an 8-minute drive away, which is super suitable as a first stop and ending attraction. The seafood is very fresh. A large plate of seafood feast plus oysters is only HKD490 Sukiyaki 📍Wine and dinner are happy The marshmallow sukiyaki that only locals know! Although the whole marshmallow was there, it was not sweet at all and made the meat smoother. The most expensive Kobe beef is only HKD600 steak 📍more blue Another steakhouse known to locals, google map has 4.9 points! . The steak is cooked with a hot stone, and the meat is tender and inexpensive. The Shitan cow set is only HKD200 Okinawa Ramen 📍Heavenly Ramen Hidden in Kokusai Street, a hidden delicacy known only to the earth's guts. The staff is only the boss, but the table is quick and tastes great. Everyone will drink up the soup, and the boys will speed up! The soup is rich but easy to enter. Agu pig 📍A century-old house After thinking about it, if you don't know which Agu Pig to eat, it's right to choose it. The place is large and quiet and is an attraction in itself. I have been selling Agu pigs for over 100 years, so there must be quality assurance. The soup is clear and sweet, and you can enjoy the unique sweetness of Agu pork without any seasoning. ice cream 📍Gelato Fontena Another ice cream that is only eaten by locals, and it is Gelato. For HKD20, you can enjoy Okinawa sea salt and bitter gourd flavors, which are not available in Hong Kong. You have to eat it to know how smooth, fluffy and delicious! Burger steak + pancake 📍Kona Coffee Satisfy two wishes at once. The American restaurant, which only comes to local Americans and mixed races, is like going to the United States once you enter, and the portions are very American. I have never tried such a juicy, crispy burger! The pancake is just as big, but it's too good to eat.

Have you ever tried Okinawa cotton candy sukiyaki?

#OkinawaTravel #100 Ways to Travel Black sugar is famous for taking a shower, but how did you expect that black sugar can be made into marshmallows to cook sukiyaki? 📍Wine and happy meal There is a 4.5 point restaurant on google, focusing on marshmallow sukiyaki, but this thing is definitely not the look, the sugar of black sugar brings out the aroma of beef more and smoother, it will not taste very greasy today The second time I ordered Kobe and pine board beef, they were just as good, the former melted in your mouth and the latter had more meat flavor. Both do not cost more than 500 HKD, all are very tasty 😋 Most importantly, no Hong Kong people know to Okinawa must collect authentic delicacies #Okinawa #OkinawaFreeTour #OkinawaFood #OkinawaDrivingTour

First Time in Okinawa: A Self-Driving Trip with Blue Skies and Clear Weather

Okinawa has many islands 🏝️, and there are few transportation options. Buses 🚌 are infrequent and take a long time, making it suitable for self-driving trips. My first self-driving trip in Okinawa 🚗 was blessed with blue skies and clear weather. I fell in love 😍 with Okinawa's daily blue skies and white clouds! One of the itineraries: @Manzamo @Cape Zanpa Lighthouse For self-driving trips, be aware that it gets dark early, and many areas have no street lights. Drive carefully.

Okinawa kokusai dori shopping street

I recently visited the Kokusai dori shopping street in Okinawa and had an amazing experience. I savored the local food and fresh seafood, which was absolutely delicious. The market was bustling with activity, and I got to immerse myself in the vibrant local culture. The friendly vendors and the lively atmosphere made the visit truly enjoyable. It was a fantastic way to experience Okinawa's unique charm and flavors.#okinawa #okinawatrip #okinawatravel #kokusaidori #沖繩 #沖繩景點 #沖繩旅遊

Okinawa trip

Holidays at Okinawa is great. Nice natural, food and places. Our trip is in the end of October. We faced a little rain. Nice weather but sometimes are too sunny. You should prepare an umbrella and a cap for your trip. During time in Naha, we used monorail and walking. Going to other cities, renting a car is the best way. Most places in outside Naha city are free for parking and easy to find a parking place. We visited the followings - Umikaji Terrace Senagajima, to see airplane landing in Naha Airport. There are many cafes and restaurants which open since 11am. The place is looks old, not new and beautiful like the past. Food and drinks are tourist price. - American village ( in afternoon is so hot, recommend visiting in evening or late afternoon) - Churaumi aquarium (paid ticket, better to advance purchase from any agency:-Klook, Trip), it is in a part of Ocean park. Except the aquarium tank, there are also Dolphins show and turtles. If you have more time, should visit Native Okinawa Village (free) and Orchids garden (Paid ticket) - Cape Manzamo (free) , beautiful cape looks like elephant - Zakimi Castle ruins (free), a one of World Heritage. This place is less tourist, good natural and nice place - Fukushuen garden in Naha city, ticket fee 209yen. Anyway there is a cafe next to the ticket gate. If you use the cafe, it can enter to the garden with free of charge.

Gorgeous nature at the valley of gangala 😀
