Scenery of Ishigaki Island

As you can see in the image, Ishigaki Island is a place where you can enjoy the vast ocean and the natural earth.

There is a small island, so if you can use a car, you can go around many places in a day.

I was particularly impressed by the lighthouse at the northernmost end of Ishigaki Island.

If you look from a high place, you can feel the ocean’s size, and you’ll be surprised by the clear ocean water.

Ishigaki Island food

There is rich in ingredients due to its mild climate and abundant natural benefits, so there has many delicious foods. Typical items are Ishigaki beef, fresh seafood and Yaeyama buckwheat noodles.

I have a restaurant I recommend. It’s called “Seven Colors Ishigaki Island” This picture is there.

You can eat taco rice with local ingredients and cold shabu from Ishigaki beef.

As soon as you leave the restaurant, you will find the beach .You can also rest at there after meals.

I was very satisfied.

Okinawa culture

Even if you have never visited Okinawa, you know that there is a very attractive culture that is a little different from that of the mainland of Japan.

One of the reasons why Okinawa culture has different cultures from other parts of Japan is its historical background.

Okinawa was an independent kingdom called the Ryukyu Kingdom for about 450 years until 1879.

The reasons include distance from the mainland and warm weather.

Then, I will introduce unique culture unique to Okinawa.
