This grotto was used by the Okinawan's for hiding from the bombing during WWII and has a small golden Buddha statue at its rear.
To the the right of the entrance is a very narrow entrance to a system of tunnels that run in two different directions. One direction dead ends, the other leads to a stairway that likely originally served as an entrance and exit. It appears that the natural mouth of the grotto was covered with cinder blocks and earth during WWII to disguise it from the Americans.
