✨ Sapporo TV Tower: Your Urban Vantage Point for Skyline Views 🌇✨
Just steps from the train station and the lush stretches of Odori Park, the Sapporo TV Tower is a must for city explorers on a budget! With its pocket-friendly entrance fee, you can ride up to the observation deck for dazzling panoramic shots of Sapporo—from snowy peaks in winter to bright cityscapes under a sunny sky in summer. It’s especially insta-worthy when sunlight catches the modern tower and the surrounding green space in one epic frame.
Here’s how to make the most of your visit:
Start your day with a stroll through Odori Park (open all day; perfect for sampling the fresh vibe and architecture), snapping candid shots of Sapporo’s urban rhythm with the tower rising in the background—bonus points for overhead angles and close-ups if you love building details or landscaped trees! Next, head into the TV Tower (1 Chome Odorinishi, Chuo Ward, open 9:00–22:00, admission till 21:50) and ascend for your skyline moment. The best views are at golden hour, but daytime is equally impressive with crisp, sunny backdrops for your photos. The tower is bursting with souvenir shops, so it’s a top spot to grab Hokkaido-themed keepsakes before heading out. The Sapporo Commemorative Coin is definitely highly recommended!
Efficiency tips: The location’s super convenient—quick walk from the train station! Don’t forget to check seasonal closures (like Nov 12) and bring some coins for quirky local trinkets inside. Minimal crowds if you go late morning or right before closing.
