Cycling Experience in the Historic City of Urasoe
Urasoe is a neighboring city of Naha that is filled with historical sites dating all the way from the Gusuku period to WWII. As you weave your way across the city between past and present, you'll encounter ancient stone walls of fortresses, tombs of Ryukyu kings long gone, and even a significant WWII battlefield featured in the movie, Hacksaw Ridge. This tour allows you to feel closer to these real-life events in a physical and personal way while riding an E-bike.
