Kokusai Dori of approximately 1.6km long is called “miraculous 1 mile”
and is the symbol of the revival of Okinawa that became the burnt-out ruins in World War II.
There are Heiwa Dori (Peace Street) and Ichiba hondori (Market Street) around here,
which are arcade streets diverged from the main street Kokusai Dori and the most prosperous in Okinawa.
Souvenir shops and clothing shops are lined along the two sides of the streets, attracting local people and tourists.
It is an amazing street that tourists seem to get lost while walking.
In addition, there is a public market in this street.
It is recommended to eat Okinawa cuisine in the public market.
