Compactly experience Ginowan's history and culture

About this spot

A locally-rooted museum specializing in Ginowan's history, folklore, and nature. From the Ryukyu period to modern times, it traces Ginowan's journey and introduces the culture of central Okinawa through local perspectives, including traditional events and agricultural and fishing tools. Though compact in scale, the exhibits are information-dense, allowing you to deepen your understanding of the Ginowan area where tonight's fireworks will light up the sky. The approachable charm of displays telling the stories of local people's lives is rare in larger museums. Many exhibits are easy for children to understand, making it perfect for family viewing.

Fireworks details

Name: 沖縄かなさ花火

Date & time: 9/19 (Sat) Time TBA

Venue: 宜野湾市・宜野湾海浜公園トロピカルビーチ特設会場

沖縄かなさ花火のフィナーレは、宜野湾海浜公園トロピカルビーチ特設会場から打ち上げられる花火の観覧です。「かなさ」とは沖縄の言葉で「愛おしい」を意味し、沖縄への愛を込めた花火大会として親しまれています。東シナ海の夜空へ次々と咲く大輪の花火は、潮風と波音の中でひときわ鮮やかに輝きます。海面に映る光の揺らぎと、南国の夜空を染め上げるカラフルな花火が重なる光景は、沖縄の海辺ならではの格別な美しさです。1日の旅の締めくくりにふさわしい、かなさな夜のひとときです。
