Sanroku-gai (3・6Town)

Asahikawa's "Sanroku-gai (3・6Town) " is said to be the second largest in Hokkaido after Sapporo's Susukino. The name "Sanroku-gai" is said to derive from its location in the 3jodori 6-chrome (SAN-jo-Dori ROKU-chome) area in the center of Asahikawa City and its site at the foot of Mt. Taisetsuzan = Taisetsuzan no Sanroku (Pronunciation in Japanese). The area is crowded with about 1,000 stores in the downtown area at night, and the Showa-era atmosphere of the streets and the neon lights give the area a nostalgic feel.

Asahikawa City thrives as a logistics hub, bringing fresh seafood from the Sea of Okhotsk and three other oceans. Therefore, even though the city is landlocked, it is possible to taste the seafood of Hokkaido. Asahikawa is also known as the "Nada of the North(The Best Sake Breweries in the North)" with numerous sake breweries. Visitors can taste the locally brewed sake produced in Asahikawa.

In addition, the bartenders in this area are known for their high quality, and it is even called "the town of cocktails." Since it is close to the station, many visitors come to enjoy a drink.
