🛍️ PLAZA HOUSE Shopping Centerプラザハウスショッピングセンター

Located about 6 minutes from KOZA GATE Street, this is Japan's first shopping center. Established in 1954, before Okinawa returned to Japan, it was created to meet the needs of the U.S. military personnel and their families. The three-story building features a high atrium connected to a medieval-style single-story corridor, filled with exotic charm and lush greenery, making it a delightful place to stroll. Here, you can enjoy a food market offering global cuisines and Japanese culinary culture, popular restaurants, cafes, and bakeries favored by local customers, indoor decor shops selling Asian and African goods, as well as specialty stores featuring Okinawan crafts. Among them, "Roger's" is a select shop that imports over 700 fashion brands and accessories directly from Paris and Milan, and has long been a popular store. Many customers travel from afar just to visit this shop. The facility also houses several restaurants, including the well-established Cantonese restaurant "Yueyuan Restaurant," which is always bustling with patrons. Over the years, this shopping center has been beloved by local customers who value fashion and lifestyle, offering a wide variety of products ranging from essential Okinawan items to high-quality foreign brands. The atmosphere here is different from GATE Street, making it a great place to relax while enjoying the remnants of American medieval charm.

Located in the southern and northern central areas of Okinawa City, with convenient transportation. Japan's first shopping center. The spacious front parking lot can accommodate large buses comfortably, and the underground parking lot can hold about 400 vehicles. Over 700 imported brands from around the world are sold here. In the selected stores that collect excellent local products from Okinawa, you can find many Okinawan specialties.
