Historic sitesHistoryShuri Castle ParkWorld heritage


The name comes from the spring called “Ryuhi” located to the right in front of the gate. “Zuisenmon” is protected by a pair of Shisa’s as well as the “Kankai Mon”. Its architectural style is mainland Japanese, with a red painted turret directly set on both sides of the stone gate. This is different from the arch style “Kankai Mon”.
