Pink bougainvillea flowers in Okinawa, Japan.

This picture was taken on a bright afternoon at the Gyokusendo Kingdom Village, a theme park which is a must-see if you are in Okinawa. The park features traditional Okinawan arts, crafts, and performances, as well as nature exhibits and historical buildings. It's a great place to experience the ancient Ryukyuan culture of Okinawa.
