Nothing.

I went shopping with my family to Naha Shintoshin and found a staircase while walking around, so I went up. Then, there was a structure that looked like an observatory and a bulletin that indicated that this place was a battlefield. The reason why it looked like an observatory was that even if I went up, I couldn't see anything because I was surrounded by buildings. I've heard that the new city center was a place where former 々 U.S. military houses spread, but I didn't know it was a battlefield. No, Okinawa is full of battlefields ...

I can't find any trace.

It is a hill that is extremely high in the plateau, which is fairly flat, but even if you actually look at it, it seems that you do not know if it is naturally high or artificially raised. Other highlands that should have been nearby are no trace.

Chongyu の excited

Located in the new city center, there are no remains or traces of those days due to redevelopment. Also, even traces are not seen in half moon. It's just a hill now. There are many cases where there is no information board or it is not written on the map, so it is recommended to go while looking at the Google Maps. Since there is no private parking lot, I used a coin parking nearby. You can only go to the top on foot. I think it's easy to understand the geographical relationship when you go here and then go to Shuri Castle. The explanation board is shallow with the Okinawa war site specification ...

We must not forget the tragedy of Okinawa.

Original Text

In 1945, the U. s.military landed in Okinawa after a fierce battle against Maeda highlands (Hakuso Cape Ridge) in URASOE, and came to Naha, the capital. The offensive and defense at the hill of Keirama Chiji (US side name ＝ sugar loaf) has killed a little less than 2700 people in the U. s.military alone, and more than 1,000 people have become crazy. It is said that the Japanese army cannot identify the number of people killed in the battle here. Thanks to you, we are now living in peace. 70 years ago this place was hell ...

A few battle sites in Naha city

Original Text

　It is one of the few battle sites in Naha City, which can be walked from Omoromachi Station. Get off the station and walk, and it's on the other side of the big road, so it's a little far, but walk to the intersection with a signal. Go up the stairs in the photo, by the way, there is no guide version at the entrance of the stairs. On the hill there is a guide version that introduces the location. There was certainly a battlefield here. If you have time, let's go.
