Sights

Visiting the sites on Guam won't only be enjoyable, it's also educational.  Guam is home of many historical sites dating back from the days of Spanish rule to the occupation of the Island during WWII.  Almost all of these sites can be accessed by either tour guide or on your own.  If you're not familiar with the sites or the history, it is recommended that you get with a tour group.  Your guide will be very knowlegable about any site you will visit. 

Some of the more popular sites date back to WWII.  You can visit the actual guns used during the war.  Many of them still sitting in the exact place that they were used against U.S. liberation forces. 

A very interesting site to visit is the hiding place of Sergeant Soichi Yokoi in the southern village of Talafofo.  A Japanese soldier dedicated to his duty, to his country and to the Emperor of Japan.  Sergeant Yokoi who had remained elusive to liberation forces, remained hidden and refused to surrender for 28 years even after being informed that the war had ended.  On January 24, 1972, Sergeant Soichi Yokoi was captured by accident by locals and was turned over to the authorities and ultimately returned to Japan where he was received as a national hero.  This single event made world wide news.
