› › Churaumi Ocean Expo Park

In the northern part of Okinawa’s main island, the Churaumi Ocean Expo Park welcomes visitors with vibrant tropical flowers that bloom throughout the year. 

Along the park’s walkways and open spaces, bright pink bougainvillea blossoms glow under the sun, swaying gently in the sea breeze and creating a relaxed resort-like atmosphere. From spring to early summer, delicate white Easter lilies, fragrant plumeria, and charming pink evening primroses come into full bloom, making the area a popular spot for photography.

At the Tropical Dream Center, hibiscus, orchids, and other subtropical flowers flourish, filling the greenhouses with vivid color and lush beauty.

Set against the backdrop of the blue sea and sky, the rich tapestry of tropical blooms is one of the park’s most captivating attractions.

24th Dec 2017: Rancho Palos Verdes Starbucks – My Most Cherished Ocean View Coffee Memory

-
Image
There’s a Starbucks in Rancho Palos Verdes (Los Angeles, CA) that I will never forget. Nestled right in front of the vast Pacific Ocean, it offers a breathtaking view that makes every sip of coffee feel like a moment of peace.  What made it truly special were the evenings—watching the sun slowly sink into the horizon, painting the ocean in shades of crimson and gold. I remember sitting there, completely immersed in the beauty, feeling time gently slow down. It’s been nearly twenty years since that visit, but the memory remains vivid in my heart. Among all the Starbucks I’ve ever been to, this one stands above the rest. It wasn’t just about the coffee—it was about the serenity, the view, and the quiet joy of being present in such a beautiful moment. Even now, I consider it the best Starbucks I’ve ever experienced. rencho palos verdes starbucks - Bing 地図 iPhone 6s Plus / F2.2 / 1/277s / ISO25 / 0.0 iPhone 6s Plus / F2.5 / 1/280s / ISO25 / 0.0 Participating in the ranking If you thi...
