出發去小樽，索找心動跡：日DRAMA「再見的延續（Goodbye Continued）場景

Otaru (おたる) is about 40-50 minutes away from Sapporo Station by local train. After leaving Sapporo city, the train runs along the coastline and is very close to the sea. When it snows, you can watch the snow fall on the sea. If the sun shines, the mist will be shrouded in blue, and the scenery is very beautiful.

🚃 Ticket price: Train Sapporo to Otaru - one-way non-reserved seat JPY750.

🚶🏼➡️ One-day tour route:
(1) Otaru Station: The platform where the male and female protagonists met in the Japanese drama "Sayo no Tsuzuki".
(2) Sankaku Market: Delicious sashimi rice bowls. When you exit Otaru Station, walk left and up a small staircase. You can see the "Sankaku Market" flag flying on the stairs.
(3) Funamizaka: You can take pictures of the road leading to the sea. (4) Former Temiya Line: Former railway line. In the Japanese drama "Goodbye, the Continuation", there are many scenes where the male and female protagonists meet here.
(5) Former Otaru Branch of Bank of Japan: A free museum that introduces the role of the Bank of Japan in the development history of Otaru, the issuance and reserve of Japanese yen, etc. There is a model of a 100 million yen banknote inside, which you can hug and feel the weight of 100 million yen.
(6) Taisho Glass Museum Building 3: A cafe converted from an old warehouse, still using kerosene lamps for lighting, which is very unique.
(7) LeTAO Fairy Tale Crossroads: Climb up to the 3rd floor observation deck and you can see the steam music clock intersection and the distant port. It is considered the highest point in Otaru.
(8) Silver Bell: A steam music clock that performs every hour.
(9) Otaru Canal
(10) Central Market: Near Otaru Station, you can visit it after dinner at "Wakachi Era". It is the scene where the male protagonist lends an umbrella to the female protagonist in the Japanese drama "Goodbye, the Continuation".

😋 Must-try:
(1) Kamaei Kensho Factory: The "Bread Dome" is JPY259/each and is a must-try. The hot cheese is wrapped in the fish cake and the crispy skin is really delicious.
(2) Wakatori Era Naruto Main Store: The signature dish is the grilled half-chicken set meal. Carnivores will probably like it, but for me, half a chicken is a bit too much and the vegetables are not enough. I felt a bit sick of eating one portion by myself. However, this is a famous restaurant in Otaru and many celebrities have visited it.
