What other travelers are saying about Ryukyu Mura (Ryukyu Village)
Came here from a tour a few months back. Small theme park. Interesting to learn the traditional Okinawa culture. Enjoy the performance. 1 hours is enough. Got a butterfly garden too but is a distance away. If the weather is good, the show outside can be nice. The tree are blocking the behind performer tho.
You could reserve your tickets using half of the price than purchasing them at the spot.
Overall speaking this is definitely not one of those must-visit tourist places as it was just a small park with several activity corners which were quite boring to be honest.
You could finish the whole thing in around an hour.
The park provides a lovely experience for both young and old alike. 🎌🎎
The traditional song and dance performances were realized with passion and it brought us back to the time of the Ryokyo Kingdom.
They should probably focus on expanding the range of experiences available.
This is an expansive, elaborate and well appointed recreated village from Okinawa history. Okinawan people are ethnically different than Japanese but their island became part of the Japanese Empire in 1879 and they consider themselves to be Japanese nationals. This village includes cultural dancing and music, authentic village homes and facilities and traditional red tile roofs. Modern facilities, shopping and local vendors in a flea market style pavilion. Ice cream and pet the water buffalo for the kids. Don't miss this stop. Two hours is about right. Thanks to our wonderful tour guide Aki! (Akimiso)
Spend around 2 hours here with my parents exploring. There is definitely some upkeep that could be made, but it was still a fun experience to see how people lived back then and get to know the culture through the shows. You can also do lots of crafts which are great for souvenirs, try traditional tea and more.
