#100 Ways to Travel Okinawa World(おきなわワールド) 🕰️Business hours: 09:00-17:30 📍Address: 202 Maekawa, Tamaki, Nanchang City, Okinawa Prefecture 🗓️Itinerary: The largest stalactite cave in Okinawa and the second largest in Japan - Yuquan Cave is located in southern Okinawa. During a geological survey in the 1960s, the stalactite cave hidden deep underground was accidentally discovered. The huge underground space of more than 5000 meters is filled with giant stalactites. In order to balance the natural landscape protection and tourism development, only 1/5 of the space of Yuquan Cave is currently open for tourists to visit. Until now, the stalactites have continued to grow at a rate of 1 centimeter per year. Transportation strategy: Gyokusen Cave is located in Nanjo City Okinawa World (おきなわワールド). Okinawa World includes Gyokusen Cave, Ryukyu Kingdom Castle Town, Viper Museum, restaurants and breweries. Self-driving is the most convenient transportation method. You can also take a bus. From Naha Airport, take the Ryukyu Bus No. 83 Gyokusen-dong Line. There are fewer daily departures. From Naha Bus Terminal (next to Asahibashi Monorail Station), take Ryukyu Bus No. 54 Maekawa Line or No. 83 Gyokusendong Line to get there. Currently, Okinawa World only has one ticket price, ¥2,000 for those aged 15 and above, and ¥1,000 for ages 4 to 14. It allows you to visit all parks with one ticket, and individual parks are no longer sold separately. The temperature in Yuquan Cave is about 20 degrees all year round, and the air is fresh and natural scenery (the walk takes about 40 minutes, and there is no restroom in the cave). The lights in the stalactite cave are dim, and there are special lighting in some areas. The trails are wet and random. The limestone terrain requires climbing up and down, which is difficult for people with disabilities, and it is even more difficult to walk in a wheelchair. Walking in the stalactite cave, various sizes of stalactites and stalagmites are displayed in front of us. Each pool of water is like a "green spring", which is one of the most beautiful scenes in Yuquan Cave. Although the cave is relatively dark and dark. It's eerie, but you can't resist the curiosity to find out more. You can witness with your own eyes the wonders of 300,000 years of nature's miraculous craftsmanship. The Kingdom Village, which is connected to the Kingdom of Culture at the end, has renovated ancient houses that are over 100 years old. You can participate in various experience activities at your own expense and enjoy a Taiko performance, which is very explosive. The last stop is the Venomous Snake Museum, a world-class venomous snake museum, displays of live snakes and reptiles, performances of venomous snakes and meerkats, etc. The whole tour takes about 3 to 5 hours and is well worth the visit. #familytravel #玉Quandong #Okinawa World Cultural Kingdom #Okinawa World #おきなわワールド # Ryukyu #Southern City #Okinawa
