Kakinohana Castle Ruins 垣花城跡
Half swallowed by the jungle, on a ledge a hundred and twenty metres above the spring.
A gusuku on a ledge at about a hundred and twenty metres above sea level, in the municipality of Nanjō, above the Ukinju-Hainju and Kakinohana springs. The masonry dates it to more than six hundred years ago, to the beginning of the gusuku period; tradition attributes it to the second son of the lord of Minton, in the fourteenth century. It has been a prefectural historic site since 1961.
