Naha

Okinawa's Capital, Subtropical Paradise
Okinawa’s capital, Naha, is a vibrant and welcoming city that perfectly blends a laidback island atmosphere with fascinating sightseeing spots, lively shopping locales and distinctive regional cuisine.

Naha is the largest city in the subtropical paradise of Okinawa, Japan’s southernmost prefecture. It acts as the gateway to this picturesque chain of islands, and was once the home of the Ryukyu royal family when the prefecture was an independent kingdom. Thanks to its distant location and unique heritage, Naha has a distinctive culture that’s very different to mainland Japan. From its cuisine to its arts and crafts, influences from China, the USA and other countries can still be seen, all suffused with a chilled-out island vibe to match the sunny weather.

Naha has an enviable amount of things to see and do, from picturesque shrines, gardens and craft districts, to a striking castle, lively shopping streets and its very own beach. Its close proximity to the sea means you can also easily escape the city and explore the beauty of the surrounding ocean and its abundant marine life.
