Kanagusuku Ufuhijaa Historic site

Kinjocho / Stone-Paved Road area

A stone-built communal well (hijaa) partway along the Kinjocho stone-paved road. Spring water was channeled through a stone trough, once quenching the thirst of the village and of travelers passing through. It makes a natural rest stop on the stone-paved road, and a small historic site that speaks to daily life in an earlier era.
