Urasoe Youdore

"A 5-minute drive from the Nishihara Interchange. This royal mausoleum dates to the early period of the Ryukyu Kingdom said to have been built by King Eiso starting from the year 1265. Called ""Yodore"" (meaning evening calm/the world of the dead in Okinawan), the tomb was dug out of a cave in a cliff wall and is believed to be the final resting place of King Eiso and King Sho Nei. Descending down the steps, there is a front garden, and, after passing through a tunnel of finished bedrock and stonework, there are the first and second gardens. The second garden offers a sweeping view of Urasoe City and Ginowan City. The surrounding area is maintained as Urasoe City Park and Castle Site, and visitors can take a leisurely stroll amidst historic ruins."
