Fukushu-en (Fukushu Garden) is a Chinese-style garden located in Naha City. It was constructed to celebrate the city’s historical ties to China’s Fujian province and current relationship with the city of Fuzhou.
In 1981, Naha City (the capital of Okinawa Prefecture) and Fuzhou City, China (the capital of the Fujian province, with which Okinawa traded a great deal) cemented their historical ties by becoming modern-day sister cities. To mark the 10th anniversary of this tie, as well as the 70th anniversary of the incorporation of Naha City, construction began on Fukushu-en.
