Tentatively planned my itinerary for my upcoming Japan trip. Any comments?
Hopefully the weather is good next few weeks.
Day 1
- Arriving Naha airport around noon. Will get the 1-day bus/monorail pass.
- Check in Tune Hotels
- Shurijo castle, Ishidatami stone pavement, finish up the day at Kokusai-dori, hope to have dinner at Makishi public market.
Day 2
- Picking up the rental car and head to Churaumi aquarium.
- Planning to wander around aquarium for half a day only.
- Either head up to Hedo Misaki and stop by Ogimi
- Or head back to Naha via the coastal road stopping by at Cape Maeda and Church Lazor Garden Alivila
Day 3
- Seifa Utaki
- Valley of Gangala

Day 4
- Traveling to Nagasaki
Day 5
- Will be using the 1-day tram pass

- Mt Inasa for sunset
Day 6
- Gunkanjima
- Dejima
- Sokufuji Temple, Meganebashi, Kokufuji Temple
Day 7
- Traveling to Osaka, arriving around lunch time
- Kuromon Ichiba Market
Day 8
- Day trip to Kyoto
- Planning to head towards Kinkakuji and nearby temples. Or should we head towards Mt Hieizan? Have already visited Eastern Kyoto and Gion so Kinkakuji is a must this trip.

Day 9
- Day trip to Nara
- Nara Park, Todaiji Temple, Kasuga Taisha, Kokufuji
- Naramachi, Koshino-le Residence if we can find it
