Otaru Canal at night in the snow... Just thinking about it makes me feel so moved. It's so beautiful and charming that I can't describe it. As I walked along the canal, the sound of falling snow and the dim lights from the street lamps made the atmosphere both romantic and warm at the same time. Even though it was so cold that my nose was red, my heart felt strangely warm. 🥰
On both sides of the canal, there were old European-style buildings that looked very classic. With the snow on the roofs and shoulders of the road, it was like a living painting. I kept walking and taking pictures. Every angle was beautiful without much editing. And if you go when they have the Otaru Snow Light Path festival, the snow lanterns arranged along the canal, with candles floating in the water, were so warm and romantic. It was like being in a scene from a Japanese romance movie. 😁
If you go with your significant other, I can tell you that this will be an unforgettable moment. But if you go alone, you won't be lonely because the atmosphere makes you feel peaceful and like you're really with yourself. Some people might just sit quietly, look at the water, watch the snow fall, and feel that... oh, life is beautiful too. 🫰🏻🎶
If you go to Hokkaido in winter, don't miss the Otaru Canal. It's not just ordinary beauty. But it's a feeling that's hard to explain. You have to see it for yourself to understand why everyone falls in love with this place so much! #travel #couplestrip #staycation #thingstodo #japan #otaru #hokkaido
