Urasoe Yodore Site

Urasoe Yōdore is the sacred royal tomb where several Ryukyuan kings, including King Shō Nei, were laid to rest. Carved into limestone and surrounded by forested hills, the mausoleum blends architectural simplicity with solemn reverence. King Shō Nei, known for his role during the 1609 Satsuma invasion, is especially honored here. The site is not only a resting place but also a symbol of cultural resilience, offering insight into Ryukyuan funeral practices, spiritual beliefs, and dynastic transitions.
