Okinawa's popularity as a travel destination has been growing in recent years, and with publications like Vogue and The Telegraph listing the region as a must-visit for 2025, this shows no sign of slowing down. The island's beautiful nature, rich culture, and unique cuisine are just a few good reasons to explore this part of Japan, but come summer there will be another—the opening of Junglia, a theme park that has a Jurassic Park-style feel.

The park is being developed by Japan Entertainment Co., Ltd. and promises to offer a unique blend of adventure and luxury that has never been seen before in the region.

Thrills meet luxury in Yanbaru

Junglia is set to stand out by offering an unparalleled experience, combining all the thrills of a traditional theme park with the peaceful luxury of its surroundings. Located in the Yanbaru region—famous for its UNESCO World Heritage status and rich subtropical biodiversity—Junglia will provide visitors with breathtaking natural landscapes and experiences that can't be found in urban environments. The park’s central theme, “Power Vacance!!”, encourages visitors to feel a sense of liberation as they immerse themselves in activities designed to excite and rejuvenate.
