Goeda-no-Matsu Pine Tree
五枝の松
A Ryukyu pine about 250 years old, its five branches sprawling low across roughly 250 square meters; a designated National Natural Monument.
Goeda-no-Matsu is a Ryukyu pine about 250 years old and about 6 m tall, but its five main branches spread horizontally close to the ground, covering roughly 250 square meters. Its unusual form earned it designation as a National Natural Monument. The grounds have paths and a viewing platform, and the tree is lit at night. Entry is free. It is close to Gushikawa Castle Ruins and Uezu House, so the three can be combined into a half-day tour of the island's northwest. Nearby is the Kumejima Firefly Center.
