Okinawa is known for a movie called "Love Battle Okinawa", so the beautiful beaches, delicious food and friendly residents, as well as the US military planes that roar overhead from time to time, have left a deep impression on the post-80s. Of course, young Japanese vacationers, American soldiers entertaining outside the base, and a growing number of foreign tourists have made Okinawa a multitude of fantasy and magic. If you're just trying to spend time on the island at a leisurely pace, Okinawa's mix of Japanese culture and tropical lifestyle will definitely make it worth the trip.

Sea of Beauty Aquarium
>> Aquariums are everywhere, what can be special? When you see the Kuroshio Sea, you will surely understand why an aquarium has become a symbol of Okinawa and was selected for the Japanese national propaganda film. The Sea of Kuroshio is the business card of the Sea of Beauty Aquarium, the main tank of the treasure of the town store runs through two floors, 8.5 meters long whale sharks, giant ghost bats and a variety of swimming fish gathered together to form a spectacular scene like Kuroshio, and the behemoths swim heroically in front of the eyes, quite a bit of "The Fantasy Drifting of the Young Pi", and the viewers are all moved. Sure enough, everything in nature, with the word "giant", is popular with the public.
>> Facing the giant fish tank, there are rows of trapezoidal seats, like a movie theater for visitors to watch whale sharks swim and eat. Of course, these seats are usually occupied by a pair of loving couples and traveling bear children, and the single dogs can only climb to the floor above the fish tank to watch the fish from above. Another unmissable part of the aquarium is feeding whale sharks, the largest fish on the planet, eating nearly 40 kilograms of fish and shrimp meat at a time. Don't look at the whale shark usually just domineering tail to show people in a high-cold image, and when the live broadcast is eaten and fed, the active and mischievous side is revealed, which makes people can't help but be funny.

Okinawa noodles
>> When you come to Okinawa, you must try the local and Japanese specialties, although the seafood here is also famous, but tourists always come here to try Okinawan noodles. In Japanese, soba (そば) originally referred to soba noodles, but okinawa soba is not soba noodles. Okinawa noodles are processed with wheat flour, and when the noodles are made, a clear liquid of grass ash or alkali water is added to improve the elasticity. So the noodles are all light yellow, a bit like Lanzhou ramen. It also has a bit of a ramen meaning to eat.
>> Noodles are super elastic and very hard. However, Okinawans are good at this mouthful, and I have seen tourists apply with the hostess at the noodle restaurant, and when I can cook more, she categorically refused. Unlike bone broth, which is so rich in other places that you can't wait to put a whole pig in it, Okinawan noodle soup is filled with bonito soup. Although the Japanese people will find Okinawan noodles a little hard, looking at the locals who are happy to eat in the ramen shop, they suddenly realize that they can eat the taste of their hometown in a big mouthful, which is probably happiness.

Naha
>> As the capital and largest city of Okinawa Prefecture, Naha, which was razed to the ground in World War II, has now changed from a ruin to a bustling city. There is no need to recommend any attractions here, as the whole city is a huge museum. Walking through the streets of Naha, it won't be long before you hear the crisp sound of three strings. In Okinawa, you'll be amazed at the perfect blend of ancient and unique Ryukyu culture and modern Japanese atmosphere, and in addition to the freak city scenery, there are also quiet summer oceans and lazy cats wandering the streets, decorated with idle marine holidays.
