Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

During the cherry blossom season from mid-April to early May, travelers planning a visit to Hokkaido can appreciate the magnificent blooms at various scenic locations. At Goryokaku Park in Hakodate, approximately 1,500 cherry trees are planted, and ascending Goryokaku Tower offers a panoramic view of the star-shaped arrangement of blossoms, complemented by a romantic light show at night; also in Hakodate, the 800-meter-long Sakura Hill Street provides visitors with a stroll reminiscent of a cherry blossom tunnel, illustrating the perfect fusion of cherry blossoms with urban life. In addition, in Otaru, Temiya Park features a spectacular scene where cherry blossoms mirror the vast ocean, while Matsumae Park, with around 250 varieties and tens of thousands of cherry trees harmonizing with the historic castle keep, reveals the unique charm of Hokkaido’s early-blooming cherry blossoms.

Cherry on the Cake

#japantrip While Japan is no short of reasons or places that make it the world's most beautiful destination for a holiday (or just about anything for that matter). Those who haven't been to Hokkaido up north are missing the most beautiful parts of this gorgeous country. The north especially during various seasons transforms into something else. You have it witness it yourself. Like with most other prefectures, you will have plenty of options. Yes, this is going to be slightly more expensive than other places. Also I would recommend driving around to get to places, otherwise shared transport. Whatever works for you. Hokkaido is not to be missed! #japantrip #hokkaido #cherryblossom2024 #japan #winter

The Ōta Jinja

The Ōta Jinja

It is a mountain sacred site with the oldest history in Hokkaido, and is said to have been founded during the reign of Kakichi (1441-1443) in a cave near the summit of Mt. Ota (485m above sea level), which towers over a cliff. In the past, the Ainu people living in this area called the mountain spirit ''Otakamoi" and worshiped it as the guardian deity of Ezochi. In 1453, Nobuhiro Takeda, the founder of the Matsumae domain, landed in the Ota area and saw the Ainu people praying towards the mountain, so he climbed the mountain himself and discovered that there was a spirit inside the cave. It is said that this belief began in 1454 when he gave the honorific title of 'Ota Daigongen" and spread the word to people widely.

Hokkaido 3D2N - Lavender, Lavender, and Flower

Looking for a perfect summer escape in Japan, where you can beat the heat and take endless photos in gorgeous lavender fields? Welcome to Hokkaido! ❤️ We traveled from Tokyo, taking shinkansen (thanks to our JR Pass) from Tokyo Station to Hakodate, and then onward to Sapporo. If you're short on time, you might want to consider flying directly into Chitose Airport. The moment we arrived in Hokkaido, we felt an immediate sense of comfort. In the summer, Sapporo's temperature was a pleasant 22-23°C, making it the perfect retreat from the heat. 🗓️Itinerary Scheduling Since we only had a few days in Hokkaido, here’s our itinerary: Day 1: Travel to Sapporo via train. Relax and explore the city at a leisurely pace. Day 2: Spend the day in Furano, where the endless lavender fields will leave you in awe. Visit the famous Furano Lavender Field and the vibrant Shikisai no Oka, known for its beautiful flower gardens. You’ll want your camera ready for this one! Day 3: Start the day with a visit to the Asahi Beer Museum and then indulge your sweet tooth at Shiroi Koibito Park. Afterward, take a trip to the charming coastal town of Otaru before heading back to Tokyo. #japantrip

Hakodate|You are truly breathtaking.

Hakodate|You are truly breathtaking.

My favorite place in Hokkaido besides Otaru A tranquil seaside town like this Can definitely gain more recognition in Hokkaido There are no specific attractions, just wandering around will surprise you I really resist the kind of stressful itinerary where you have to take photos and edit them everywhere Strolling around casually and relaxing Everywhere is naturally beautiful, making you feel happy and refreshed I really recommend everyone to come and spend two days here One day is really not enough Also, the seaside wind is indeed very strong, it feels colder than Sapporo and Otaru As for the Joker Burger... it doesn't taste very good, I kind of miss the McSpicy Chicken Burger

Iyayoriko Shrine

This time, I would like to introduce a recommended place in Sapporo, Hokkaido! This is a shrine located in Hokkaido, and it is very spacious and highly recommended. I visited during the day, but if you go in the autumn, you can see the beautiful autumn leaves, which was wonderful. It is also a very calm shrine, so it was nice to be able to take your time and relax. Please be sure to visit at least once.

Shikisai no Oka

Located in Biei, Hokkaido, the Shikisai no Oka is undoubtedly one of the most representative sceneries of Hokkaido with its colorful flower fields, which are also the dreamy flower field scenery many people envision. The flowers are planted in striped patterns, with about 30 varieties of flowers having their own territory across the 15 hectares of vast hills. Lavender, Princess Guppy flowers, Cockscomb, Red Roses, and others compete in beauty, offering a feast for the eyes. Especially from a high vantage point, the view of the endless flower sea gives the illusion of embracing half of the flower field with just one hand.

Hokkaido | A winter ski/hot spring invitation

Hokkaido | A winter ski/hot spring invitation

Winter, December to February, is the best season for skiing and hot springs♨ in Hokkaido. Landing in Sapporo from 🛬New Chitose Airport, you are invited to a Hokkaido rendezvous. 🗓Recommended itinerary: First route: Skiing⛷ route, centered around Sapporo, soaking in the resort and ski slopes. Sapporo Teine Ski Resort, the closest to Sapporo. Niseko Higashiyama Ski Resort, with excellent snow quality and slopes. Hoshino Resorts TOMAMU Ski Resort has quality powder snow, and the resort itself is also worth exploring, of course, the price is also beautiful. Second route: Hot springs♨ route, Sapporo-Otaru-Noboribetsu. Entering Noboribetsu Hell Valley, you can smell and see the natural sulfur hot springs. Different from domestic ones, the hot springs here are separated by gender, and bathing is done naked. Third route: Snow viewing❄ route, Sapporo-Furano-Biei-Asahikawa. In winter, the trees in Biei sing a lonely song, while the penguins🐧 in Asahikawa perform a joyful symphony. ✈️How to buy discount tickets: Domestic flights can take off or transfer from Shandong. Shandong Airlines to Japan is considered a budget airline, and sometimes round-trip tickets are less than a thousand. 🏨How to choose accommodation: For skiing⛷, stay directly at the ski resort, and you can stock up in advance during major OTA promotions, especially at Hoshino Resorts TOMAMU Ski Resort. For hot springs♨, Otaru can be a day trip, and Noboribetsu is recommended for Dai-ichi Takimotokan, a more established hot spring hotel, with tatami rooms, including dinner buffet, room service, and hot springs.

Amazing Hokkaido

Amidst the vibrant hills of Biei, I wandered through fields of blooming lavender and sunflowers, their colors bursting under the clear blue sky. The sweet scent of flowers enveloped me as I snapped photos, capturing nature’s palette. Later, in Sapporo, the aroma of miso ramen filled the air. I savored each slurp, watching locals bustle by. As night fell, the city lights sparkled like stars, blending the beauty of nature with urban charm—a trip I would always cherish.

Shinsen-numa Marsh Parking Lot & Observation Deck

Shinsen-numa Marsh Parking Lot & Observation Deck

The walking path to the observation deck was not well maintained. There is a path, but you have to push through bamboo bushes that are about as tall as you are, and from the observation deck you can just see a little bit of the scenery through the trees. This is a store that is only open seasonally. In addition to ramen and curry, you can also enjoy soft serve ice cream and coffee at the rest house. It's a little secret spot. Recommended for standing on the drive.
