The guide in the park will give a lecture on the highlights. The viewing time is 2-3 hours, but if you enjoy the show program and craft experience carefully, you want to watch half a day. Then, let's introduce the highlights of Okinawa World in order!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you buy a ticket, first go to \"Gyokusen-do\"! Gyokusen-do is one of the largest in the country with a total length of about 5km and a number of stalactites of about 1 million or more. About 890m was opened to the public in 1972, and it has been popular as a leading tourist destination in Okinawa since then to this day. There are many places to see in the cave, such as \"Toyo-ichi-do\", which boasts the size of the main temple of Shuri Castle, and \"Ao no Izumi\", which is beautiful in blue and shining groundwater. Let's fully experience the underground world created over a long period of about 300,000 years. In addition, the \"Minami no Shima no Dokutsu Tanken\", which explores the undisclosed area of Gyokusen-do with a caving instructor, was conducted only in summer. Recommended for those who want to taste the adventure mood!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
