Okinawa Prefectural Museum, Prefectural museum in Naha, Japan.
The Okinawa Prefectural Museum extends across four floors and one basement level, constructed with local limestone and featuring over 24,000 square meters of exhibition space.
The museum originated from the Ryukyu Governmental Museum in 1946 and underwent reorganization in 1972 following Okinawa's return to Japanese administration from US control.
The permanent exhibition 'Sea and Island Life' presents artifacts and multimedia displays that document the traditions and developments of the Ryukyu Islands.
Audio guides enhance the museum experience with narration available in Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, and Spanish languages for all permanent exhibitions.
The entrance features a glass-floored walkway designed to replicate walking over coral, leading to exhibits about the geological formation of the Ryukyu archipelago.
