What are the main landmarks in Tsuji?
One museum carries the district. The Tsushima-maru Memorial Museum keeps the name of the Tsushima-maru in Tsuji, and it is the single landmark recorded against the district within Naha. No second landmark joins it in Tsuji.
Travellers after more of Okinawa's built heritage look outward from Tsuji, to the wider city and the towns beyond it, rather than to these few streets.
What is the history of Tsuji?
Memory anchors this district. The Tsushima-maru Memorial Museum gives Tsuji its commemorative role within Naha, keeping the name of the Tsushima-maru on a street inside the district itself. Okinawa frames the rest.
Tsuji stands as one quarter among several in Naha, and its story runs with the city's, alongside Kume and Tomari.
Where is Tsuji?
The district takes up part of Naha in Okinawa, sharing the city with the neighbouring districts of Kume and Tomari.
