The flower of winter festivals! Let's go to Sapporo Yuki Matsuri

#JapanTravel #SapporoTravel #YukiMatsuri #WinterFestival

There are three major winter festivals in the world.

Canada Quebec Snow Festival
China Harbin Ice Lantern Festival
And
Japan Sapporo YukiMatsuri

As the name of the festival suggests, YukiMatsuri is a snow festival in Korean.

They make snow sculptures and buildings on Sapporo Susukino Street and even make a ski jump, so you can watch the sculptures and ski jump shows.

The snow sculptures are elaborately made, and the large ones are made to be similar in size to real ones. The snow sculptures are made using various characters, so it's fun to see the various sculptures.

There are not only snow sculptures, but also ice sculptures, so you can feel the sculptures with a different feel from snow. I recommend coming in the evening because ice looks prettier when there's lighting.

Sapporo YukiMatsuri, which holds various events in addition to snow and ice sculptures!!!

If you are thinking of visiting Japan in the winter, try to visit during this festival period!!!
