The "Cornerstone of Peace" located within the Peace Memorial Park is a memorial site that engraves the names of those who lost their lives in the Okinawa War, regardless of nationality or whether they were military or civilians.

Every year on June 23rd, Memorial Day, many people visit this place to offer prayers for those who fell victim to the Okinawa War. Itoman City is said to be the site where the Okinawa War came to an end, and the Cornerstone of Peace is a symbolic place that conveys Okinawa's history and aspirations for peace to the present day.

Surrounding the area are the Peace Memorial Museum and the expansive Peace Memorial Park overlooking the vast ocean, which are cherished not only for tourism but also as places for peace education.

Standing in front of the quiet monument, one can feel that each individual had a life, prompting deep reflection on the importance of peace.
