Shuri Castle

The recreated castle's main building. You can see how this island's culture shows how it has similarities to China as well as to Japan.

I have noticed the similarities with architecture - China and Japan - but who am I to say anything - not an expert. Nice to see this here!

I like the dragons along the roofline.

Strong architectural lines and interesting to see the Chinese influence on what I recognize from our trip as having so many classic Japanese features.
