Akanko Ainu Kotan
The Akanko Ainu Kotan, located in the southern area of Lake Akan-a famous freshwater lake and a top tourist destination in Eastern Hokkaido-serves as a vibrant hub for experiencing Ainu history and culture.
The whole forest was lit up, and the vibe was super dreamy—felt like I’d stepped into a fairy tale.
Even walking around at night didn’t feel scary. The lights and music went really well together.
Michinoku Lakeside National Government Park
Located at the foot of the majestic Mt. Zao and adjacent to Kamafusa Lake, Michinoku Lakeside National Government Park is the only national park in the Tohoku region. The expansive park is divided into three main areas:
The park is massive—perfect for a walk and slowing down. I felt totally relaxed.
If you want to get away from the city and be closer to nature, this is a pretty solid choice.
Hoheikyo Dam
Hoheikyo Dam is built upstream of Toyohira River in the Minami District of Sapporo City. It controls the flow of the Toyohira River, of course, supplies water to the Sapporo City, and the surrounding area is renowned as a tourist spot for the fall foliage.
Coming to Hoheikyo Dam in the fall is seriously beautiful. A whole spread of red leaves with the reservoir in the background—such a relaxing view.
