With a number of stores dotted around Naha, Ramayana is the place to go for fun, colorful housewares and fashion from around Asia. They have curtains and cushions, furniture and ornaments, bags and clothes, imported from Thailand, India, Indonesia and other countries around the region. The main store is a few minutes' walk from Asahibashi monorail station, and there are others conveniently placed on Kokusai-dori and the Heiwa-dori arcade, and in the Aeon shopping center next to Oroku station. You're bound to find something there to brighten up your home or your own look!
