Hachimanzaka Slope is one of Hakodate's iconic attractions. The straight road stretches down to Hakodate Port, offering expansive views. Trees line both sides, creating a different atmosphere each season. It's also a popular spot for enjoying the ocean view and taking photos. The sunset over the harbor is especially unforgettable in the evening.

Rikugien Gardens
Starting in 1695, Rikugien was constructed over 7 years as a Japanese garden of undulating scenery. Designed in the Kaiyushiki style, it features strolling paths around ponds and hills. It is designated by the Japanese government as a Special Place of Scenic Beauty.
位於東京駒込的六義園，是江戶時代留下的代表性日式庭園，以池泉迴遊式庭園聞名，四季各有不同風情。春天最令人驚豔的，莫過於枝條自然垂落的垂枝櫻！盛開時，粉嫩花朵沿著枝梢傾瀉而下，宛如一道道輕柔的白色瀑布，在微風中搖曳生姿，浪漫得令人屏息。親眼見到這片櫻花美景，真的會忍不住駐足欣賞、拍個不停，是東京賞櫻季節中讓人難忘的絕景！

Ginza Matsuzaki Senbei Main Shop
A long-standing Senbei (a type of Japanese cracker) shop, founded in 1804. The “Oedo Matsuzaki Sanmido” Kawara Senbei, representing the Matsuzaki Senbei, has a smooth surface on which a craftsman will carefully paint a seasonal motif with syrup, one by one. It uses plenty of eggs, and the light sweetness with a crispy pleasant texture is loved by a wide range of customers.
Ginza Matsuzaki Senbei is a long-established Tokyo rice cracker shop founded in 1804, known for its traditionally handmade rice crackers. Its signature “Oedo Matsuzaki Koyomi” features seasonal scenery painted on the crackers, making each one look like a small, delicate work of art with a distinctly Japanese feel. The shop also offers a variety of rice crackers and wagashi, all elegantly packaged and perfect as souvenirs. They look a little like Taiwanese tile cookies, and have a wonderful rice aroma!

Hokkaido Ⅾosanko Plaza, Sapporo shop
“Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza, Sapporo shop” is an information corner for “Food” located in “Hokkaido- Sapporo Food and Tourism Information Center”, which is loved by tourists as well as local people. They provide not only food but also cosmetics made from food ingredients such as salmon or crab.
Compared with the uniform product displays at department stores, I prefer a souvenir shop full of local character like Hokkaido Dosanko Plaza, Sapporo shop! Stepping inside feels like setting off on a Hokkaido treasure hunt. From specialty snacks and local treats to all kinds of limited-edition products, every corner holds an unexpected surprise. You can not only find great products that are usually hard to come across, but also experience Hokkaido’s culture and way of life through them. Rather than just choosing popular local specialties, you can discover unique gifts with stories behind them, making each gift feel more personal and thoughtful.
