Mongol 800

Hi I'm goinig to post about my favorite band "Mongol 800" Do you know this band? They're called "monpachi".and from Okinawa. I and most of Okinawan love Monpachi! Many popular bands are in Okinawa.but my best band is Mongol 800, because Monpachi is my first favorite band. I love their songs!

Mongol 800 consists of three Okinawan. I introduce the menbers from left side of above picture.Guitar, Takashi Gima. vocal and bass Kiyosaku Uezu and drum satoshi Takazato. They became a popular band in Japan by releasing the album "MESSAGE". I really recommend it!!!

At that time, Mongol 800 didn't still debut in officially, but this album "MESSAGE" recorded the Japan chart No.1. in 2001. And then, their songs were used in CM many times. They're the star of Okinawa!

If you were interested in Mongol 800, you should try it! 

SHURI CASTLE

Today, I'm going to post about " SHURI CASTLE". This is the most popular castle and really popular place in Okinawa. Shuri castle is in Shuri, Naha city. I've visited to Shuri castle many times in my life.

Scientists says Shuri castle was probabry built in 13 to 14 century. But it was completely destroyed by World War Ⅱand construction of Ryukyu Univ. in 1945. Finally it was restored in 1992, so this is same age of mine lol. Shuri castle is located on the hill so we can see the whole Naha city. It's beautiful view. When you visit there, you should view it. Especially night view from the castle is very beautiful.

Please visit there!

KOKUSAI STREET

I'm going to post about "KOKUSAI STREET". I think this street is the most popular site in Okinawa. Lots of souvenir and food shop are there,so many visitors is filling the street anytime.

My high school is close to the Kokusai street, so I often went eating and shopping with my friends there.My favorite Tacos restaurant is there. Its taste is really good.

The Kokusai Street is in Naha city and near the Naha airport, so you can visit and enjoy shopping at once.But, the traffic is really heavy in all day long.if you want to visit there, you should visit by monorail or taxi. its cheaper than parking.
