明治33年(1900)八丈島の豪商、玉置半右衛門[たまおきはんえもん]の開拓に始まる島の歴史や文化を紹介している資料館。とりわけ製糖会社支配時代に関する資料は必見。製糖会社が貨幣の代わりに発行していた物品引換券や渡島承認証などが、当時の管理体制を伝えている。センター横には、サトウキビ運搬や島民の物資の輸送に活躍したシュガートレインも1両保存展示されている。
亀池港[かめいけこう]の近くにある標高56mの展望台。はるか北には北大東島が見える。周囲約21kmの島ながら、展望台からの風景が広大な土地のように見えるのは、サトウキビやジャガイモの耕地の単位面積が大きいため。また、島の地形が周辺部ほど高い洗面器型なので、周りの海がほとんど見えないせいでもある。
Among the islands of Yonaguni, which are surrounded by sheer cliffs, the east-south is the area with the most severe and masculine landscapes. It is dotted with strange rocks that have been created over time due to the rough open sea. Close to Higashizaki, there is the Sannine stand, which shows the fault, which is divided into several layers, as a rock face. From the observation deck, the warship rock, which looks like a warship as its name suggests, is still washed by the waves. About a five-minute walk from Saint-Ninudai, there is a standing rock with a legend that a young man who could no longer descend from the top of the rock was helped by God.
A waterfall with a height of about 20m appears when you drive about 5 minutes into the mountains from the National Highway No. 58 Ikuta intersection.
It is a royal farm house built about 280 years ago, and has been spared the war disaster of the Okinawa War to completely leave the private house structure of the Ryukyu Dynasty period. Since he was a local head of state around the year of Kyoho 10 (1720), he also has a stately status as a form of a shabby house. Other features include kitchens with low roofs to use the attic called tungwa for storage, and pig huts called fools. The influence of medieval Japanese houses and Chinese architecture can be seen everywhere, telling the life of a wealthy farmer in the Ryukyu period.
