Fukugi Trees at Bise
The Bise community, found at the west end of the Motobu Peninsula, has the most number of Fukugi trees in the Okinawa Main Island; in fact, the community is totally surrounded by these evergreen broadleaf trees. The Fukugi trees, which originated from the Philippines, were initially planted all over Okinawa for protection against typhoon or raging sea waves. Presently, it is still possible to find sturdy Fukugi trees that are over 300 years old in Bise.
