Other than the sun, the sand, the sea, another main reason why we wanted to visit Okinawa is... the slide! The most famous long slide in Okinawa is located at Urasoe Dai-koen 浦添大公園, which is about 15 minutes drive away from Naha City.
This slide is 90 meters long, and is made up of metal rollers. Imagine sliding down this slide under the hot sun!
We bought two sliders at Daiso, at 108 yen each. Ready, get set, let's go! [Update in September 2016: Sliders are now NOT allowed to be used for safety reason.]

Other than the length, another thrilling factor is that you can see the highway while you are sliding down!
Other than the long slide, the children were challenged by this "castle"!
You may think that these are too challenging for the younger children. Don't worry, there are other facilities for the younger ones!
There are two car parks near the park, one is just next to the park, with the sign as shown, and the other one opposite. Take note that the car park next to the park is directly next to a cemetery.
At the entrance of the park, there are washrooms and vending machines for beverages.
The children love this playground very much!

ReplyDeleteThanks to some Taiwanese blogs that I managed to locate the playground. Hope your sis enjoy her trip!
Deletethe slide looks super fun! How's the weather in Okinawa?
ReplyDeleteThe weather in Okinawa is similar to Taiwan. It was about 26-28 degrees Celsius during June. Take note that it is rainy season from mid-May to mid-June.
DeleteHi there, do you know if the slide is closed at night? In order not to be burnt by the slide, could be good to do at night?
ReplyDeleteThe park closes at 9 p.m. There is a cemetery next to the playground, so you may visit if you don't mind.
