Top Uruma Natural Attractions

Step into the fascinating underground world of Cave Okinawa, locally known as Nuchishinujigama, a limestone cave filled with natural beauty, history, and spiritual significance. This remarkable cave is considered one of Okinawa’s famous “power spots,” believed to bring good fortune and positive energy. Its name carries deep historical meaning, rooted in two remarkable events where lives were miraculously saved. During the Battle of Okinawa, nearly 300 residents sought refuge inside the cave and survived without a single casualty. Earlier, during the Ryukyu Kingdom era, a prince from Nakijin Castle reportedly found safety here after a battle. Inside the cave, visitors can admire a variety of unique limestone formations, including the rare Red and White Stalactite, considered an auspicious symbol after two children were born nearby during wartime.
