More than 100 shops—including souvenir shops, clothing stores, and restaurants—line the area around the public market.

Recommended Sightseeing Spots Near Euglena Mall

inside the palace grounds

The Miyara Residence is the only remaining residence that preserves the architectural style of the samurai class of the Ryukyu Kingdom; it was built in 1819 by Miyara Chikunagami Tōen, a member of the Ryukyu samurai class.

It has been designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan, and its garden—featuring massive Ryukyu limestone boulders and designed by Shuri gardener Gusukuma Pechin—has also been designated as a National Scenic Spot.

Shin-Ei Park

Shin-Ei Park is a large green space where many local children gather to play on the playground equipment and enjoy sports.

While it usually has a peaceful atmosphere with children playing around, it’s also the venue for outdoor events such as the Orion Beer Fest and the Tuba-rama Festival.

Gushiken Youtaka Monument

Although Mr. Gushiken is often seen on variety shows and the like, he used to be a professional boxer—a legendary fighter who successfully defended his WBA World Junior Flyweight title 13 times in a row!

In recognition of this remarkable achievement, a statue was erected at the remote island terminal on Ishigaki Island, Mr. Gushiken’s hometown.

It is a popular photo spot, and many tourists take souvenir photos there.
