Sapporo Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

Chocolate Factory

#2024wish This is the famous Ishiya Chocolate Factory which is located in Sapporo, Hokkaido. In the Factory, there is restaurant where you can have a rest in between of your tour. The souffle is very fluffy and delicious. They will have seasonal items depending on the seasons, so you can find new dishes. There is a short show in the outdoor Courtyard every hour. Is very interesting. The address is 11-36 Miyanosawa 2-jo 2 - chome, Nishi-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido. The opening hours is from 10am to 5pm. Good to go early to avoid crowds. This is a place not to be missed! You also can purchase the famous Shiroi Koibito (white lovers) cookies from the shop in the Factory too. I wish to go Scotland! #tripblazers #mytripvlog #sapporo

Winter Wonderland at Shiroi Koibito Park

Visited the chocolate factory on my recent trip to Hokkaido and the snow truly made the place a winter wonderland. Indulge in the ice cream sold from a store outside the main building and watch a music performance when the clock strikes 12! The best time to visit would be right when the park opens as there will be less visitors during that time. Take note that there are no duty free in stores starting Jan this year!

White snow, white chocolate, white Christmas

🌳It's my first time to play in Sapporo, and it's unreal how beautiful it is!

🌳 The first time I visited Sapporo, the beauty was unreal! Firstly, step into the Northern Wonderland and visit Hokkaido University in winter, the campus is as beautiful as a snowy fairy tale under the snow. ❄🎓 ❄ Experience Hokkaido Hall's Old Main Building in winter, where the historical buildings look even more rustic and elegant under the snow cover. The architectural landscape in the midst of snowflakes makes you feel as if you have travelled back in time, experiencing the serenity and magic of winter in the North. 🏰❄ 🏔 Climbing to the top of Mt. Moriwa, overlooking the entire Sapporo city centre, the snow-capped summit blends perfectly with the modernity of the city, allowing you to experience the romance and magnificence of Hokkaido's winter. ☃🗻 🍁 Switching seasons and stepping into autumn at Fushimi Inari Shrine, with its red leaves and shrine atmosphere bathed in the warmth of autumn, it is as if you have entered a serene and mysterious autumn wonderland. 🍂⛩ Sapporo's picturesque scenery makes every place a mesmerising picture, making your first trip to Sapporo full of surprises and touches! 🌍✨

Hokkaido's location in Japan is just like Japan's location in the world. In Hokkaido, people have the most complete horizon in their sights. The day of humanity begins here, and it opens from day to day.

The beauty of Hokkaido is different in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. It looks like a girl with a lot of charm and beauty, but Hokkaido in winter shows a silvery white world, which is known as the 'Snow Country'. It is the most beautiful season in Japan.

It also adjusts itself appropriately in accordance with the surrounding environment. when it When it fell from a height and touched the hard rock, it splashed a wave of silver and white waves without any indication. then. Sigh of the breeze. The roar of the waterfall, the groan of the flowing water, are intertwined into a unique dance music, which is prohibitive Can't stop feeling a romance overflowing in my heart

Odori Park

#2023travelwish Odori Park (大通公園, Ōdōri Kōen) is a park located in the heart of Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. Ōdōri (大通) means "large street" in Japanese. I took some pictures around the TV Tower. It feels good to take a walk! When the weather is nice, it's a place where you can take a rest. I wish I can come back again to Hokkaido in year 2023. #hokkaido #sapporo #friendstrip #2015

The Odori Park in Sapporo

Getting there: The Odori Park is just beside Odori Subway Station or a ten minute walk south of JR Sapporo Station. Highlights: The Odori Park is a park located in the heart of Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. It stretches east to west for about 1.5 kilometers and divides the city into north and south sections. At the eastern end of Odori Park stands the Sapporo TV Tower, which has an observation deck with nice views of the park and the surrounding city. The tower is just under 150 meters tall, and the observation deck is at an elevation of 90 meters. During the evening the tower is illuminated, making it an attractive landmark.

Odori Park Christmas Market, Sapporo - Japan: A small Christmas market near to Sapporo TV Tower. There are some souvenirs, snacks and foods selling there which we havd to eat outdoors nearby the shops. This is a lovely place to visit. #merrychristmas

Sapporo Snow Festival is a must visit during winter in February at Odori Park. You can see many snow sculptures here from building, Doraemon, Pokemon and many more. We arrived on the last weekend of the festival so it was very busy and some the smaller sculptures had started to melt but the scale was impressive. Best in my mind was the Helsinki Cathedral and the JR display which used video onto the sculpture to make it look like it was moving. Huge variety of food and drink available all around the festival and also live music on a couple of stages. We spent an hour watching a popular local band who had all their fans dancing in sync. #givethanks #givethanks

Make a wish at Hokkaido-Jingu

Been to Japan several times but this was my first time in Sapporo Hokkaido prefecture. Visited the Hokkaido-Jingu shrine and it is enthralling to learn about its history and congregational culture of the area. One of my favourite thing is the tying of of the omikuji and the Japanese architecture of the shrine. It was beautifully crafted and you may also want to get some seasonal souvenirs to bring back home for yourself of for your loved ones. Getting to the place was easy by JR train. If going from Sapporo station it’ll only take around 15-25mins. Make sure to stop by at the stalls along the way for some Japanese street food snacks like takoyaki, beef bbq tried it loved it, and okonomiyaki. I believe the best time to come is during the sakura season and the golden week as it will be less crowded and you’ll enjoy numerous variety of cherry blossom they are beautiful. Let me know your experience and thoughts about this place if you have already visit or any questions you may want to know about going to this place for the first time. Happy travels! ♥️#japan #tripblazers #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #passionpassport #2023travelwish #explorejapan

It's snowy winter all over the world, why should we go to Hokkaido! ❄️ Because of the snow in Hokkaido, you look forward to it, it will come. The maritime climate nourishes Hokkaido all year round, and when it cools down, the continuous heavy snow falls. ❄️ Because the snow in Hokkaido contains 95% of the air, it is very clean. It can sweep away all the dust in the world, together with the bad mood of the whole year; the blue sky and the streets after the snow are clear, and the air is pure and fresh. #wintergetaway

In 2020, go to Hokkaido to see the first snow ❄️ When the heavy snow, open-air wind and arms with long crab legs are combined, you will find that it is really a happy thing to do humans ~ The third time I go to Hokkaido, no longer check in Attractions, but choose a good hotel to bathe, aimlessly stroll in the street, snow in the warm cafe to enjoy the snow, especially romantic and beautiful! #wintergetaway
