Katsuren Castle Slide

Katsuren Castle


On Saturday Jason, Bryton and I went to see the Katsuren (kaht-soo-den) Castle ruins.
There are many castles and ruins here on Okinawa, so far this is one of my favorites. It sits high on a hill over looking the ocean on two sides. Which by the way, is always a beautiful blue-green, that is so clear you can nearly always see the bottom.

It was quite a walk up but worth it to see the view.
The walls, foundations, and stairs are intact enough to get an image of what it may have looked like back in the day.

I hope to be able to see all the castles here before we leave.
