Gyokusendo Cave - Okinawa World
Gyokusendo cave is the longest underground cave in Okinawa and portion of it is accessible to the public from the Okinawa World park. The cave features stalactites and stalagmites that have formed over the years from lime deposits. The cave is easy to explore, with man-made paths for visitors and should take no more than an hour. A detailed information on the formation of these unique rocks are provided along the path. The luminance provided by the lights add an interesting colour to the rocks and water.

Okinawa World
#thingstodo Okinawa World stands out as a captivating journey through the island's traditional charm and cultural splendor. This theme park is a celebration of Okinawa's rich heritage, featuring a spectacular limestone cave that offers a refreshing retreat and a glimpse into the island's natural beauty. The stalactites and stalagmites within this extensive cave system are a geological marvel, making it a must-see section of the park.
Beyond its natural wonders, Okinawa World is alive with vibrant cultural experiences. Visitors can immerse themselves in various shows that showcase the island's arts—glass making demonstrations fuse creativity with skill, while the snake show offers a thrill with a glimpse into Okinawan fauna. However, it's the traditional Okinawan dance performances that truly capture the spirit of the island, with their rhythmic movements and colorful attire providing a feast for the senses.
Culinary delights are not forgotten, with three eateries scattered throughout the park. Each spot offers its own unique taste of the island: succulent beef paired with locally brewed beer, a fruit stall boasting fresh picks for a refreshing treat, and a venue dedicated to authentic Okinawan dishes that tantalize the palate with flavors unique to the region.
To fully savor the Okinawa World experience, it's recommended to allocate at least two hours. This allows ample time to explore the cave, enjoy the shows, and indulge in the local cuisine without rush. It's an enchanting slice of Okinawan culture that promises both education and entertainment for visitors of all ages.
In my opinion, Okinawa World serves as a wonderful introduction to the island's culture, providing a blend of education, entertainment, and gastronomy that is hard to find elsewhere. It’s a place where the past and present coalesce, offering a rich experience that leaves a lasting impression on its visitors.

Batman’s Bat Cave?
Visited the Gyokusendo Caves. Thought it would a short walk underground, but the caverns were huge and it was quite a long hour plus slow walk through. The limestone was dripping alot probably cos of the recent rain, so we had some watery blessings! Nice experience.
