Oriental Hotel Okinawa Resort & Spa (hereinafter referred to as Oriental Hotel Okinawa) is located in Yambaru, an area in the northern part of Okinawa Prefecture. Yambaru is one of the most abundant ecosystems in the world, and in the deep forest where time seems to stand still, fresh water bubbles up and spills over creating many streams. There are a variety of rare wild animals that live here. In Yambaru, our eyes are focused, our ears listen carefully, and touching nature becomes a wonderfully moving experience. As we harmonize our senses with our surroundings while walking in the forest or playing in the river or swimming in the sea, we enjoy the feeling of becoming a part of the nature that is Yambaru. Because I am visiting such a deeply moving place as Yambaru, it is not enough to just look at the natural landscape and go around pre-determined sightseeing spots on marked-out routes. But as I slowly take in nature, my mind and body relax, and my journey helps me regain the power and feeling of becoming one with nature.
