The Ryukyu kingdom's main hall, burned down in the 2019 fire, has been rebuilt and opens to the public from noon on 23 November 2026. You pass through Shureimon, climb stone steps through gate after gate, and the red-lacquered Seiden stands across a broad courtyard. For years visitors saw a reconstruction site under a shed; this autumn is the first chance to see it finished. From the walls on the east side, Naha and the sea spread out below.
