Spot.3 Deep Okinawa Sweets that have long been loved by locals.
I want to buy something other than the classic Okinawan souvenirs! For such people, we recommend "Market Hondori" heading to Makishi Public Market in Naha City. From famous sweets such as Serta Anda Guy and Chinsuko, to local sweets known to those who know it, such as lemon cakes and kunpan. You can meet sweets that have been popular with local people for a long time. Since you can buy it from one piece, there is no doubt that you will be pleased to assorted Okinawan sweets and make it a souvenir.

The matching goods are magical items that will further enhance women's journey. If you want to get matching goods on Kokusai Street, it is recommended to experience making accessories. Accessories can be taken home on the day, not large luggage, but compact to carry! On the first day of your trip to Okinawa, everyone can enjoy making accessories and accompany the trip.

Handmade miscellaneous goods are recommended for those who want different daily necessities. Even if you say miscellaneous goods in one mouth, there are various items such as bags, pouches, wallets and key cases. Even with the design of the same motif, it is unique to handmade that the pattern comes out one by one. If you buy it with friends and family, you can enjoy a little senior matching item.

"MIMURI shop" is located on Ukishima Street. There are many fans in the tropical design with Okinawan landscapes and flora and fauna motifs! The cute naming such as "just right bag" and "a little bit gamaguchi" is also a must-see.
Spot.6 The dining table is a little luxurious. Look for your favorite yachimun
"Tsuboya Yachimun Street" is a 5-minute walk from Kokusai Street. Potteries, workshops, and shops of the traditional Okinawan pottery "Yachimun" line the eaves, and there are a variety of designs, including traditional patterns and modern-style arrangements.

How was it? Kokusai Dori is famous as a standard tourist destination in Okinawa, but there are plenty of secret spots that are not listed on guidebooks and tourist sites. It's a good idea to enjoy the royal road course, but why don't you try international street sightseeing where you can find your own way of enjoying it and want to come again and again?
