The Museum Where New Journeys Begin

Museums are places where a region’s treasures are gathered.

But where do those treasures originally come from, and why are they here now? If we truly knew the story behind these relics, we might react with something deeper than just “Beautiful” or “Wow!” once we arrive at their source. That said, it can be fun to let your imagination run wild as it pictures the mysteries of a land yet unknown to you.

In this guide, we will be introducing twelve of the Okinawa Prefectural Museum and Art Museum’s must-see treasures, and their stories. In addition, we will ask you to try choosing the one piece that left the deepest impression in your heart.

In fact, we’ve reserved the last page of each guide to suggest the “destination” to visit in order to learn the story behind each item. We are sure your way of seeing those places will change after listening to our guide. ON THE TRIP will show you the “Museum Where New Journeys Begin” to provide a launchpad for your own travels.
