Shuri Castle is a gusuku (Ryukyuan castle) in Shuri, Okinawa. It was the palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom. In 1945, during the Battle of Okinawa, it was almost completely destroyed, with only a few walls standing as high as a few tens of centimeters. In 1992, it was reconstructed on the original site based on photographs, historical records, and memory.
