This time we will introduce "Kitahama Station" in Abashiri City, Hokkaido 🚃

JR Senmo Main Line "Kitahama Station" is a small unmanned station in Abashiri City along the Sea of ​​Okhotsk where drift ice flows.

This station is touted as the "closest station to the Sea of ​​Okhotsk" and the "closest station to drift ice", and is a popular tourist spot that appears in various movies and dramas!

Inside the small wooden station building, there is a snack and cafe called "Teishaba" where you can enjoy a delicious lunch, which is also one of the attractions of Kitahama Station! !

In winter, you can see the mysterious drift ice that is unique to Japan from the train window along the Sea of ​​Okhotsk between Shiretoko-Shari Station and Abashiri Station. Kitahama Station is also a station with a long history that opened in the Taisho era, and the old-fashioned postbox at the entrance matches the retro wooden station building. When you enter the small, unmanned station building, you will find cute colorful chairs, and the ceiling and walls of the waiting room are covered with business cards and tickets that travelers have pasted as souvenirs! Be sure to visit during the drift ice season. #tripmemory2022 #outdoor #hokkaidotrip #snowscenery #abashiri #abashiricity #shiretoko #hokkaido #winter #snow #train #unmannedstation #retro #photospot #travel #filmcamera #wintertrip #spectacularview #trip2022 #tourismsupport
