    Stroll Along the Streets lined with Galleries and Stores

    Ukishima Street connects the tourist-crowded Kokusai-dori Street to the Ichiba Chuo Street, where the First Makishi Public Market is located at, and extends toward Tsuboya area. It was named after “Ukishima Hotel,” a large hotel that used to be located along the street, and many fashionable young people gather here. The street is a unique mix of old and new, where specialty stores that have been around for a long time such as bean shops, confectionery stores, and tatami mat stores remain along with select stores selling Okinawan goods and T-shirts, secondhand clothing stores, boutiques, beauty salons, cafes, and other new and fashionable stores.

    Exceptional Experience of Having the Food You Bought Cooked For You!

    Colorful tropical fish, pork, which is an essential ingredient for Okinawan cuisine, vegetables unique to Okinawa, and homemade sidedishes made from island ingredients are dynamically laid out in the market, which is familiar as the kitchen of Naha citizens, and you can enjoy shopping while chatting casually with the shopkeepers. The market is a place where you can experience the power of Okinawa, not only in the ingredients, but also in the lively atmosphere and through the people who work there. There are also many stores around the market that are unique to Okinawa, so why not take a look? Currently, the public market is operating in a temporary location from March to April 2023 due to relocation.

    Enjoy the Simple, Modest and Deep Atmosphere of Okinawa

    Dotted with numerous stores such as butcher shops, fresh fish shops, restaurants, and general stores, the Sakaemachi Ichiba Market has a retro atmosphere that seems to go back to the Showa era after the end of the war that attracts visitors. The time here feels to flow comfortably perhaps from being a place where the elderly can relax and shop. Festivals are held regularly, and a rap group called “Obah (Grandma) Rappers,” formed by women who run stores in the market, enlivens the market. At night, the market is lit up with the lights of taverns and bars, giving it a different appeal from the daytime.
