Strolling Along Otaru Canal Under Gas Lamps

During the day, a walk along Otaru Canal offers a nostalgic atmosphere with its stone warehouses and gently flowing waters. Street performers and the aroma of coffee make it hard to leave.

As night falls, the gas lamps along the banks light up, their reflections shimmering on the water, creating a dreamy and surreal scene. The buildings on both sides of the canal appear even more classical under the glow, as if time has turned back.

The day and night views of Otaru Canal each have their own charm, making it an unmissable stop on any Hokkaido journey.
