Key Information
Description
The park is located southwest of Naha City in the Tomigusuku uplands and offers a view of the East China Sea, the southern metropolitan area all the way to Shuri Castle. During the time of the Shuri Dynasty period, there was a beacon fire called "Hibanmui" located here, which would announce the arrival of ships from China and Satsuma.
During the last stage of World War II, the Japanese Navy Underground Headquarters was established here, making it an extreme battlefield. Today, it has been remodeled as a former battlefield park that sends messages of peace to the world from Okinawa. It is a place for exchanges and relaxation that is widely appreciated by tourists and citizens alike.
