Chapter List: Part-18 Heiwa Dori and Makishi Public Market

Pig face for sale at the Makishi Public Market at Heiwa-Dori in Naha

Shopping on Heiwa-Dori is a great way to take in Okinawan life. The tastes of the people are revealed with what is on sale in this maze of small shops. Get lost in the culture and pick up a few authentic souveniors with James Knott as he wanders through this asian shopping mecca. Items available – goya, smoked irabu sea snake, awamori, shisa dogs, clothes, umbrellas, pottery and anything else you can think of. If you’re feeling hungy head to the Makishi Public Market and get some fresh fish, lobster, crabs and clams and have it sent upstairs to be prepared by one of the nearby restaurants.
