Kastil Shuri di Prefektur Okinawa: Pelestarian Identitas Budaya Ryukyu dan Destinasi Wisata

Shuri Castle serves as a pivotal symbol of Ryukyuan cultural identity and a key tourism destination in Okinawa. The study reveals that the castle's strategic role in representing Ryukyu's political history, architecture, and symbolic meanings is crucial for preserving its cultural heritage. Through qualitative analysis using Stuart Hall’s theory of cultural identity, the research highlights how Shuri Castle's management as both a historical park and tourist site enhances public understanding of Okinawan history and culture. This dual function supports broader efforts in cultural preservation while fostering tourism.
