This cave has served as a burial space for over 2,000 years. Although this space is considered sacred, you can still enter it and walk for over a kilometer. A number of clay pots can be seen, many of them broken. Some contain human remains. In Okinawan culture, it is common practice for bodies to be cremated or buried in ohaka. Some locals offer money to the spirits to pray for them. A flashlight is highly recommended, if not compulsory.
