Hokkaido EP 1 :NISEKO (Japan Trip 7 days 6 nights)

Day 1 (Apr 11, 2025)
We used #airchina, a Chinese airline that allows us to check in luggage of 46 kg (2 pieces of 23 kg).
The flight was at 7 pm but it was a good thing that it was delayed until almost 10 pm. We departed because it was not the season and there were few people. Don't be alarmed if the plane is small. In front of us, there were empty seats everywhere. Just be prepared.
As for the food, there were not many choices. We boarded the plane at Suvarnabhumi and transited at Beijing Airport (if it takes 6 hours or more, you can book a hotel for free. We booked one too, but because the plane was delayed, the waiting time was less than 6 hours, so we couldn't enter the transit hotel). We traveled for a full day. 555

Day 2
Arrived at #chitoseairport because if you want to go to Neseko during the season, there will be a bus. It costs about 1,200 yen if I remember correctly. But but but, we came just at the end of the season (the season ends on March 31). Oh, I couldn't even give it a month. 555 But we chose to come during the Songkran holiday. He said that he couldn't, so he decided to rent a car. Which had been booked through #tripcom before. Use the services of #nipponrentacar The staff can communicate well in English. There is a guide to read (must follow the traffic rules. Driving in Japan is not as difficult as you think). At first, I was afraid to drive because the car will warn you of the speed in real time. Of course, in reality, if there is a car tailgating and following the one in front, we can increase the speed to the same speed as the car in front in the left lane. The right lane is for turning and passing only. Do not drive too slow. Let's continue. After renting a car, I secretly wanted to go to FURANO. So I drove from CTS to stop by to enjoy the atmosphere at #ningleterrace. Since I came all the way here (about 200 kilometers), I didn't drive out until 3 pm. We arrived at our destination at 6 pm. The shops were closing one by one. They still open until 7:50 pm. A little after 7 pm, after walking and taking pictures, we drove back to Niseko, almost 200 km. It was a real struggle. 555 We arrived at our destination a little after midnight. We stayed at #q fox black diamond, which is a self-service hotel. I'm not sure what kind of service they provide during the season. But it was happy anyway. There is breakfast available for breakfast, morning and evening, 7.30-10.00 and another time 17.00-19.00. Here, you can eat for a long time. If you miss it, it will be all gone.
The city is very quiet. If anyone is hungry, I recommend buying from Smart or Lawson on the way first. Because the city is very, very quiet. Most shops are closed. But it seems that the map is not updated. I tried walking around the city at all times.
