The 20th Nakijin Gusuku Cherry Blossom Festival

About this event

Held at the World Heritage site Nakijin Castle Ruins, the 20th Nakijin Gusuku Cherry Blossom Festival is an event where you can enjoy the contrast between historic castle walls and beautiful cherry blossoms. Usually held from late January to early February, dark pink Kanhi-zakura cherry blossoms adorn the castle ruins. The opportunity to appreciate the scenery of the castle walls and ruins alongside cherry blossoms is its appeal, allowing visitors to view them while taking a stroll. Evening programs are sometimes held, making it possible to enjoy enchanting cherry blossoms at night. Details such as castle opening hours during the event period, evening programs, and admission fees will be updated as the dates draw near. Free parking is available, but since crowds are expected during the festival season, arriving early or considering public transportation is advisable.
