Onna, Okinawa

The village is the site of the tomb of the Republic of China statesman Fang Chih, founder and Chairman of the Sino-Ryukyuan Cultural and Economic Association.

Since World War II Onna has been a small-scale center of sugarcane production but tourists from mainland Japan, China, Taiwan, S. Korea, Australia and many other countries stay in one of the many seaside resorts that have been built just before, and after, the beginning of the new millennium.

Like other municipalities on Okinawa Island, cut flowers and greenhouse vegetables intended for the Japanese homeland have become important agricultural products.
