mountains, national parks, top travel
destinations, secret spots and general travel in Japan, based on

Okinawa
Okinawa is a chain of islands spread through
the
warm
waters at the very bottom of Japan. Once the independent Ryukyu
Kingdom (from the 15th-19th centuries), Okinawa retains a distinctive
culture and cuisine. It's a
popular beach resort destination, especially for domestic travelers.
