    Okinawa Pref. Nanjoushi Tamagusuku Kakinohana
    Kaki no Hana Hija Spring, located in a lush forest on a hill in Nanjo City, splashes out from the bottom of a rock. It has been selected as one of Japan’s top 100 famous water sources and is now used for household and agricultural water. A small pond is a perfect place for children to play, and many people visit for the cool breeze.

Let go of your image of a busy, ordered Japan and replace it with crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, and relaxing folk music: You’ve arrived in Okinawa. A world away from the high intensity of Tokyo, Okinawans appear to live a laid-back beach life on this paradisiacal tropical island that lies in the middle of the East China Sea almost 1,000 kilometers south of mainland Japan’s most southern tip. Home to a spattering of islands, prepare yourself to discover underwater caves, star-shaped sand, and an island culture sometimes unrecognizable from mainland Japan.
