Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Kokusai Street can be called the center of Naha tourism. There were shops that catered to tourists lined up on both sides of the street, giving the impression that it was always busy with people enjoying Okinawa and Naha.
This is my first trip to Okinawa in several years. Maybe it was because the last time was before the coronavirus pandemic, and this time it was after the pandemic, or maybe it was because it was the off-season for travel, but it felt a little lackluster or deserted.

People have finally returned, but there are very few Japanese people.
New stores have opened and replaced their old ones.
There are more chain stores, but the independent stores are still closing...
Even though there are fewer restaurants, they seem to be surviving by attracting customers, and the staff seem to be going out and attracting tourists rather than providing service.

The things that were different from what I imagined from watching it on TV were:
1. It's a pretty long street
2. It's a convenient area with not only souvenir shops, but also restaurants, hotels, convenience stores, etc.
3. There are also restaurants to choose from, such as steakhouses, Okinawan cuisine, and Korean cuisine
4. It's open until quite late at night
That's all for today's recommended place!

Easily to come here by Yui rail. We came here several time for shopping and food. It is a famous attraction in Naha city. So packed and crowded during night time.

It is just a very long street crowded with mostly tourist. Since we were tourists, we joined the fun and strolled along under a cool weather, stepping in to some interesting shops, cafes and salted ice-cream shops. At some point we ventured away from the main street to discover more shops and better restaurants in the back lanes.

Good last resort place for souvenir shopping and food as there are tons of shops and restaurants/izakaya. It is definitely a busy street. If you don't like a touristy place, then avoid this street. Many restaurants offer Okinawan food and habushu (snake sake).

The busiest part of town, I suppose, with all kinds of shops and restaurants. It's fun walking down from one end to the other especially on a Sunday when they blocked off traffic and making this into a pedestrians only area. Do try the snacks along the street. Absolutely enjoyed the hot cheese cake on a cold day. We did not do too much shopping other than a few boxes of cookies on this 4th trip to Naha.

For a first timer, it is quite exciting to be introduced to Okinawa by walking down International street. It is interesting to observe the smart uniforms of the various different groups of students on field trips from different parts of Japan. One can't help bumping into many of these student groups along the street. On Sunday from 12noon to 6pm, this street is closed to traffic

How this so called "attraction" got such good reviews is beyond me. There is absolutely nothing to buy here, or even remotely interesting to window shop even if you don't plan to buy...every single store literally sells the exact same dollar store quality trash. I guess if you have zero plans and your hotel is in this area, you can head over to sample the purple potato tarts or butter cookies, which they sell at every store! Otherwise, do yourself a favour and skip this...big waste of time!

It was 4 pm when we were taken to Naha's main street, Kokusai-dori (国際通り, "International Avenue") and we spent an hour and a half shopping, eating, and strolling. Here we were able to try some products made from salt at Yukisiokabou [雪鹽菓房], which is a specialized store for salt products: salt sweets, salt cookies, and salt ice cream. We shared an ice cream and decided to buy some salt sweets as gifts for friends. It was a very touristy street but aside from Americans from the US Bases, you hardly see any westerners. 90% of the tourists in Okinawa are from other areas in Japan. Of the remaining 10%, which is about 300,000 per annum, 120,000 are from Taiwan. At the end of the day, Japan is still for the Japanese; being so, do not expect to see many signs in English or English-speaking Japanese people. Japan is, in fact, more convenient for Chinese-reading people since Chinese characters [Kanji] are widely used. Overall, we enjoyed the time we spent there.

About 15 minutes walking is correct. The sunshine maybe hot if you do that or the rain may spoil your day. We took a cab (100 yen) because there were 4 of us and also because of our age ( above 75).
