Bise Fukugi Tree Road

A Hidden Gem Tucked Away from The City
Bise is a picturesque village famous for its fukugi trees, located near the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. There are nearly 230 houses in the village area, which is divided like a chessboard, with most of them surrounded by a dense cover of fukugi, scenery once commonly seen in most Okinawan communities. It is one of the few places on the island where you can ride in a buffalo-drawn cart, an experience normally found only on Taketomi Island. You can enjoy a tranquil moment while traveling leisurely along unpaved white-sand streets with the gentle sun filtering down through the fukugi trees.

All those tall Fukugi trees laced on the roads and walkways stand sturdy against strong winds, which can also protect the local housing during typhoon season. Whether you'd like to wander or sit back on a bench, there is a cow-drawn carriage ride available that offers the most relaxed stroll. This 1 km-long Garcinia tree-lined road is like a green tunnel. The nostalgic town gives a modern-day glimpse of olden Okinawa. The neighboring café has a sweeping view of the ocean. The bull carriage tour is also recommended.
