    I visited Makomanai Park in the fall! This spacious, beautiful, and pleasant park is less than 10 kilometers from central Sapporo and very easy to reach.
    It was just past mid-October, and the park was filled with layer upon layer of autumn foliage, with brilliant red and golden leaves competing for attention. It was breathtaking!
    I sat quietly alone among the red maple leaves, listening to the birds sing. The woodpeckers were busy, the squirrels were agile, and the stag seemed a little flustered...
    All of this actually made me forget about my next stop, and I couldn't bring myself to leave for a long time...!

    I highly recommend setting aside half a day to enjoy the cherry blossoms at Makomanai Park. The air is fresh, the grounds are clean, and walking under the cherry blossom-lined paths feels so relaxing. It’s definitely one of the worthwhile cherry blossom spots to visit in Sapporo.
