Ideas to make your stay at Naha Airport more enjoyable Naha Airport is usually the gateway to the skies, and many people fly through it. Although the airport is positioned as a starting point for people to come and go, we planned this project to make their stay more enjoyable and meaningful. Normally, you tend to spend a lot of time sightseeing at the airport before departure, but this event offers a new way to enjoy it. Another goal of this event is to deepen interaction between local residents and tourists, and to allow them to experience the culture and charm of Okinawa. It is a place where both tourists and locals can enjoy Okinawa’s rich nature, ingredients, and culture together. About the future of Asasora Market Asasora Market will be held on October 6, 2024, and we aim to continue holding it over the medium to long term as a symbolic long-running event of Okinawa. *Details will be announced on the official SNS at a later date.
