Route description

National Route 390 features the 730 Intersection in Ishigaki, a monument to the day when traffic in Okinawa Prefecture was reverted from driving on the right-hand side of the road to the left after the United States relinquished control over the prefecture to Japan following the 1971 Okinawa Reversion Agreement.
