Introduction

Manzamo is located on a cliff by the sea in Onna village, Kunigami district, Okinawa, Japan. Its name comes from King Shō Kei's praise of it as "a plain where ten thousand people can sit", because in the Okinawan dialect, "man" means "plain". This place is made up of limestone, its unique shape resembling an elephant's nose. The cliff is constantly eroded by the sea, forming a special landscape. The sea is blue, with large coral reefs in the deep, and the cliff top is a vast green grassland. Here, the true meaning of "vast" is referred to as "Manzamo". Standing here, you can hear the sound of the waves crashing against the cliff, and see the expanse of the sea and sky in front of you. Starting from the parking lot, follow a U-shaped trail. In the first half, you can enjoy the panoramic view of Manzamo extending into the sea; in the second half, you can see the distinctive ANA InterContinental hotel and several calm bays dotted with exposed rocks. The beach around the bay is a filming location for the drama "Ren Sen Okinawa".
