The OMO rangers will give you an inside look into how to enjoy Daiichi Makishi Public Market, also known as "Okinawa's Kitchen," from the Uchinanchu perspective.

Not only will rangers acquaint you with Okinawa's classic ingredients, like colorful fish, chiraga (skin from the pig head), and tropical fruits, but they will also introduce you to the market's biggest attraction: the people.

By touring with a local OMO ranger intimately familiar with the market, you will get the true Okinawan experience of a warm welcome and a chance to chat with the grandmas and grandpas.

This is a walking tour with OMO Rangers who will introduce the legend of the ancient "Shisa," who have long guarded Okinawa, from a unique perspective. You will hear commentary on the history of the Shisa and their origins, while enjoying a walk to visit various Shisa, including some that are poking their faces from out of the ground, or are embedded in the walls of houses. During our stroll, you will get to visit the workshop of a Shisa craftsperson, and you might even get to discover a new side of the Shisa!?

This course will show you the charms of Shurijo Castle, making you want to go there and enjoy its surrounding sightseeing spots. The OMO staff will share information from people working at Shurijo Castle, the local people's thoughts on the castle, and recommended photo spots/stores from their unique perspectives. Have fun deepening your understanding of Shurijo Castle by taking the Shurijo Castle Quiz to review the lecture and completing your own Shurijo Castle Area Map by writing down what you have learned. Enjoy learning about the charms of Shurijo Castle and end up de~ji(really) wanting to go there. This course is free and requires no reservation. We look forward to your participation. *De~ji is an Okinawan dialect word meaning "very much" or "really."

Join a tour led by the OMO Rangers, friendly neighborhood guides who will show you around the maze-like shopping district known as Ura Kokusai-dori, a little ways from the Kokusai-dori, a staple sightseeing spot in Naha. Enjoy meeting the warm-hearted locals and touring the good old spots of the shopping district. Get a deeper insight into the charms of Naha you have never known before. Browse through the district's stores, from long-established shops that have been around for 50 years to brand-new ones. It's a street where all sorts of people and things gather. Just taking a walk around it will already fill you with fun and excitement. We will also give you recommendations on local restaurants and souvenirs during the tour, making it great for starting your trip!
