Shuri-jo in 2014-15

The second floor was called the Ufugui, and was the site of more private rituals and ceremonies
performed only amongst the royalty and court ladies. It contained the throne room, but was largely a women's space.
The throne room itself (also called usasuka like the audience chamber below on the first floor) was decorated
lavishly in gold and vermillion, as was the entire Seiden, inside and out.
