Going up to the observation deck of Sapporo TV Tower, the city night view was dazzling and beautiful. The lights lit up all of Sapporo, and it was hard to leave.
The observation deck felt a little narrow and somewhat dim. When it gets crowded, it can feel packed, but overall, it’s still a night view spot worth visiting.

Sapporo Odori Park

Odori Park is located in the center of Sapporo City. Surrounded by approximately 4,700 trees of 92 species, including lilacs and harunire (elms), as well as lawns and fountains for relaxation, the park is loved by tourists and citizens as a place to relax in the office district.

Odori Park stretches all the way from 1-chome to 12-chome. I didn’t walk the whole thing this time, so next time I definitely want to go from end to end.
11-chome and 12-chome have a romantic rose garden. Although the early-summer roses weren’t in full bloom yet, they were still beautiful enough to make me stop and admire them.
At 3-chome and 4-chome, they sell the super popular grilled corn, and I definitely recommend trying it! The corn itself isn’t as tasty as the corn in Taiwan, but the sauce is absolutely delicious and makes you want to keep taking bite after bite. The stalls only accept cash, so I recommend preparing about JPY 600–1,200 in advance so you can enjoy it without worry.

A sparkling jubilee
The future waits for you and me~~

This visit happened to be during Tokyo DisneySea’s 25th anniversary, so the whole park was filled with a dazzling, joyful blue. It’s my favorite shade of blue. The summer Duffy and Friends were riding bicycles out to the seaside, and every character had such a happy smile. Just seeing them made me feel relaxed and cheerful too.

I definitely have to recommend the 25th-anniversary limited-edition Duffy and Friends blind box tote bags. No matter which one you get, they’re super cute. If you go to DisneySea, you should definitely bring one home!

I also recommend the rides Soaring and Frozen!!! You absolutely have to try both. If the lines are really long, I’d recommend buying a FastPass. Toy Story Mania! is also highly recommended. This attraction usually has fewer people, so you can just wait in the regular line.

Also, you definitely have to visit Duffy and ShellieMay’s greeting cottage and interact with them. Disney now has several cameras set up in the greeting cottage, and at the end they give you a QR code so you can decide whether you want to buy the photos.

Tokyo Disneyland has so much Donald Duck stuff, and as a Donald Duck fan, I was seriously so happy! There’s also the dreamy, beautiful castle, the moving Beauty and the Beast attraction, and the insanely fun Baymax ride.

Oh, and Mickey’s Magical Music World was surprisingly amazing too. If you’re going to Tokyo Disneyland, I definitely recommend checking it out!

Goryokaku Park

Goryokaku, a Western-style fortress, was built in 1866 and served as the political capital of Hokkaido until the new Meiji government took over. It later became a popular tourist attraction after it was opened to the public as "Goryokaku Park" in 1914 and was designated as a national special historic site.

One of the main locations from Detective Conan: The Million-dollar Pentagram. In early summer, Goryokaku Park is full of lush greenery. The moat and fresh green scenery throughout the park complement each other beautifully, making it hard to leave.

I’d love to come back and visit Goryokaku in different seasons to experience its unique charm throughout the year 🤩🤩🤩
