Kokusai Dori

I had a trip to Okinawa. It is a vacation destination, but unfortunately, I did not get to enjoy beaches this time.

I did have time to take a walk in
Naha one morning. I am posting some pictures from Kokusai Dori Street.

Here's the entrance of the street with a Shisa statue.

Shisas usually come in a pair placed at the entrance of building.


Here is a bunch of them enjoying themselves at a show window of a restaurant.

This one looks determined to protect his building.

One of the largest souvenir stores on the street.


A music store - the string instrument depicted on the left is Sanshin. It has three strings and uses snake skin. It has a very distinctive sound.
