Shuri Castle at Night

Shuri Castle at Night

Shuri Castle in Naha is still undergoing renovation. It looks like they are in the second of three stages, concentrating on the roof line and the golden dragons that sit at either end of the apex. You can just spot the scaffolding in the above photo. Here’s a crop from the  image at 100%. It’s nice to see they paint the scaffolding red, quite thoughtful really as the castle still gets many visitors while the reconstruction is going on.

    Wow, fabulous shot. I visited there near the New Year, but did not get a good sweeping shot of the caste. Well done.

    in 1949-50 when I served there.

    I was searching for info on Okinawa after the horrible disaster. I was stationed at Kadena AFB from 1979-1983. I have great memories of that beautiful island the ROCK. Thanks for the update of Okinawa.
