Asahikawa Tourism and Local Products Information Center

The Asahikawa Tourism and Local Products Information Center provides tourist information mainly for the Asahikawa city and nearby Daisetsuzan area. In addition to providing tourist information, the center also has a sales area and a food and beverage corner to promote the attractions of Asahikawa City and the northern Hokkaido area, and also provides tourist information for foreign visitors.

The merchandise section sells a variety of local specialties, including local confections, Asahikawa ramen and other food products, crafts from northern Hokkaido, and goods featuring the animals of Asahiyama Zoo, one of Asahikawa's major tourist attractions. The shop is also directly connected to the station, so it is often used as a place to look for souvenirs on the way home.

At the food and beverage corner, there are standard menu items such as the famous Asahikawa ramen and soba noodles, and yakisoba (fried noodles) is also a popular menu item. Other takeout menus are also available. As a result, the restaurant is often used as a rest stop for sightseeing, and locals often visit during business breaks.
