JinJapan 107 Castles of Japan: Syuri castle 首里城 Naha city Okinawa. 20220220
The kingdom of Ryuukyuu 琉球王国 lasted from the 14th century to the late 18th century in current day Okinawa prefecture. This kingdom's symbol was a big red castle in Naha city. That castle is Syuri castle. I visited this castle while I was in Okinawa at the beginning of February and was blown away by the difference between Japanese castles and their history. As you may know in 2019 is sadly burnt down but its reconstruction efforts are a great sight and a great chance to learn more about Okinawan culture.
