    Opened a Secondhand Bookstore in Okinawa

    The small island of Okinawa is nicknamed a ‘publishing kingdom.’ Junkudo has around 60 stores in Japan, and the largest one is in Okinawa, proving its reputation. Despite its small size, the island hosts about 40 publishers. Books from here are called ‘Prefecture Edition,’ meaning they’re made in Okinawa.
