This Museum covers the loss of life in the Battles of Okinawa. It also have very nice memorial walls with the names of the victims including civilians, Japanese Military and USA Mititary whom lost their lives here in WWII.

We went to visit the special exhibition for the animation originals. In my opinion, the regular exhibition are less interesting unless you are really into art or history.

This nice little art museum is right at the centre of the city and sits among the shopping malls (next to DFS). Worth a 2 hours visit and have a break after all the shopping. You got 20% off on entry fee with a 2 day monorail traveller ticket.

like my title plus you see also US Military occupation of Okinawa excellent historical time passages of te Ryuku kingdom

The historical and natural history section is really excellent if you want to know about Okinawa. The fine art section has a permanent exhibit and rotating exhibits, always very nice.

Good museum about Okinawa interesting history, worth a visit in Naha. They have free audio guides in several languages.

Luckily for us, this place is opened until 8pm on saturday. It is next to Naha main Place shopping centre about 8 mins walk from the Omoromachi monorail station. It is a big modern building with much to see. There is a model of the typical Okinawa house which is free and one can walk through it without the footwear.... More

I only had less then an hours time and this was not enough. The surroundings with the park are nice too. Certainly worth the visit

Very well done. The museum is small and just the right size for its purpose -- showcasing Okinawa. Recreated pieces are done excellently. There's also a very good and informative exhibition on fear on the 2nd floor at the time of visit and a haunted house that I did not go in.
