Your travel notes

Slow down for a walk through Shuri. The stone-paved road in Kinjocho survives as part of the historic Madama-michi route, amid stone walls, greenery and local homes.

What to look out for

  1. A slope paved with Ryukyu limestone
  2. Stone walls and a lived-in Shuri streetscape
  3. A cultural walk to pair with other Shuri plans

Notice the individual stones

Pause to look at their shapes rather than watching the scenery while walking. The changing slope offers different views along the route.

Respect the neighbourhood

This is a residential street. Keep voices low, avoid private property and leave space for residents. Wear shoes suited to uneven slopes.
