    Churakaji Okinawa Art Experience is a hands-on studio where you can experience making various Okinawan arts and crafts without booking. There are plenty of hands-on options such as making Ryukyu glass and glass beads, painting shisa (Okinawan lions) or making a decorated music box, and the price is reasonable. Work you have done can be taken home with you. Glasswork and the trendy “EM ice cream” are also sold. The barrier-free studio is accessible for wheelchairs or similar.

    旅行の醍醐味は、グルメや景観を楽しむだけではありません。地元の文化を体験することは、心に残るものです。こちらでは、沖縄シーサーの絵付けが体験できます。

Let go of your image of a busy, ordered Japan and replace it with crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, and relaxing folk music: You’ve arrived in Okinawa. A world away from the high intensity of Tokyo, Okinawans appear to live a laid-back beach life on this paradisiacal tropical island that lies in the middle of the East China Sea almost 1,000 kilometers south of mainland Japan’s most southern tip. Home to a spattering of islands, prepare yourself to discover underwater caves, star-shaped sand, and an island culture sometimes unrecognizable from mainland Japan.
