[Hokkaido] Enjoy the spectacular scenery of the four seasons in Hokkaido, the northernmost part of Japan 🏔✨

Hokkaido, the northernmost part of Japan, is an area full of attractions such as vast nature, spectacular scenery in every season, fresh seafood and dairy products! ⛄️
You can enjoy beautiful scenery whenever you visit, such as cherry blossoms in spring, lavender in summer, autumn leaves in autumn, and snowy scenery in winter. 🥹

This time, we will introduce plenty of recommended sightseeing spots and ways to enjoy traveling in Hokkaido!

Must-see sightseeing spots in Hokkaido

1️⃣ Furano and Biei – Picturesque hilly landscapes and lavender fields

The spectacular spot where the mysterious blue of Biei spreads, "Blue Pond", and the colorful flower fields and Hokkaido-like hilly landscape "Shikisai no Oka" are must-sees 👀❕

📍 Access: About 2 hours by car from Sapporo / About 40 minutes by car from Asahikawa Airport

2️⃣ Sapporo

The central city of Hokkaido is the perfect place to enjoy gourmet food and sightseeing!

The gateway to Hokkaido, where city and nature are in harmony! 🌉

We especially recommend the Sapporo TV Tower, with its beautiful night view and illuminations, and Susukino, where you can enjoy Hokkaido gourmet food and the night city!

📍 Access: About 40 minutes by train from New Chitose Airport

3️⃣ Hakodate

A port town where you can see one of the world's three greatest night views and exotic cityscapes⚓️
A must-see is Goryokaku Park, characterized by its pentagonal fortress💡

And what's more...

🍣 You should definitely try Hokkaido's fresh seafood!

📍 Recommended shops
✅ "Hakodate Morning Market" (Fresh sea urchin and salmon roe bowl is delicious)
✅ "Sapporo Outer Market" (Hairy crab and king crab are delicious!)

🚆 Access to Hokkaido

We also recommend driving around the vast Hokkaido in a rental car! If you are not confident in driving a car, it is a good idea to book a tour! That's what I did 🤭
