The Sapporo Science Center is a family-friendly attraction for all ages! Not only can you easily learn about the snowy region through interactive games and have a great time, but adults can also get fully immersed. The thrilling minus 50-degree extreme cold experience and impressive 3D theater are especially entertaining and educational. I highly recommend exploring it with the whole family!

Sapporo TV Tower

Built in 1956 on Nishi 1-chome, the starting point of Odori Park, the Sapporo TV Tower is well known to locals and tourists alike as a landmark of Sapporo that has witnessed the city's development since its completion.

The Christmas lights and festive market atmosphere at Sapporo TV Tower are wonderful! Although it's very cold outside, the dazzling lights make it especially romantic. When you get tired of walking around, you can browse cute little shops for hidden finds, then enjoy a cup of hot cocoa and some hot food. It instantly warms both your heart and stomach, making for an unforgettable and cozy winter experience.

The trip to Sendai and Miyajima was unforgettable. Miyajima's scenery was picturesque and refreshing, and tasting the freshly grilled oysters, sweet and bursting with juice, was the ultimate treat. The dense, sweet honey castella from Shokado was the perfect ending to the trip.

Meiji Jingu Gaien, the outer park of Meiji Shrine, was established in 1926. It features the Meiji Memorial Picture Gallery and various sports facilities, such as the Meiji Jingu Stadium, where you can enjoy nature throughout the four seasons.

The golden tunnel was dazzling, with fallen leaves forming a soft carpet. While strolling through it, the air carried the distinctive, unusual smell of ginkgo nuts, but it didn't dampen my enjoyment at all. Surrounded by bustling crowds and traffic, sports cars occasionally roared past, adding a touch of modern luxury and motion to the poetic autumn scenery.

Jozenji-dori Avenue

Along with Aoba Dori, this main street is a symbol of Sendai, the "City of Trees," with four rows of zelkova trees stretching 700 meters, which can be enjoyed in all seasons, from fresh greenery to autumn leaves. The center of the street is a promenade, where visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll while sipping a cup of coffee.

Strolling beneath the dazzling sea of lights along Jozenji-dori Avenue in Sendai, hundreds of thousands of brilliant LED lights illuminate the cold winter night. When the golden glow washes over the treetops, the romance and splendor of that moment are breathtaking. This is not just a visual feast; it also seems to carry the hopes and warmth of countless people, conveying an enduring sense of emotion in the depths of winter.
