Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
In Okinawa, the lion is considered to be a protector who drives away evil spirits and protects the villagers from disasters. Its sculptures are often found under the eaves or in front of the door, and the larger stone lion statue is in the Zanpa Cape Palace Park near the Zanbo Lighthouse, also known as the Zanba Big Lion. This stone statue was originally built by Yomitan Village, which had trade relations with China, in order to pass on its diplomatic culture to future generations, and later became the patron saint of this side. The stone lion statue was restored once in the 60th year of the Showa era. It is 7 meters high and faces the direction of mainland China. There is a stone tablet next to the stone statue, which is engraved with "Draw a dream! Embrace the legend! For the happiness and peace of mankind!".

The big lion next to the Removable Po Park can be reached by bus. It is a very historic lion. It is also a more distinctive symbol in the area of Okinawa. It is worth seeing.
This lion is a bit broken compared to the Egyptian lion and the Singapore lion
