This garden belonged to the royal house which reigned Okinawa islands. It was built as a guest palace to welcome emissaries from China. Before the Meiji Restoration, Okinawa islands were not Japan and a different royal house from Japanese Emperor's family ruled. In the center of this garden, a big pond was built. And a stone bridge was spanned.
During watching the bridge, three women came to the bridge and started to cross. All of them had each sunshade.
