What is Fukushuen
Fukushuen Garden was first opened in September 1992 to commemorate the 10 year anniversary of the sister city relationship between Naha and the Chinese city of Fuzhou (福州). Everything, from the planning to the construction, was conducted with cooperation from Fuzhou workers (natives) to create an authentic Chinese style garden. It is only a 10-minute walk from Prefectural Office Station. Given the ease of access, why not stop by and peruse the garden?
Highlights
