Hokkaido Shrine isn't just a place to worship; it's also a distinctive stop on a trip to Hokkaido. The shrine grounds have a solemn yet pleasant atmosphere, and walking along the approach, you can really feel the traditional Japanese ambiance.

What impressed me most this time was the little squirrel fortune at the shrine. It was just so cute! The tiny squirrel design was adorable, and I couldn't stop taking photos of it while holding it. It's completely different from an ordinary fortune slip, and I thought it made a perfect little keepsake from this trip to Hokkaido.

Sapporo TV Tower is next to Odori Park and is one of Sapporo's most iconic landmarks. You can see its tall red structure from far away, and when you get close, it really feels like, “I've arrived in Sapporo!”

This time, I stopped by Sapporo TV Tower and admired it while taking a walk through Odori Park. The surrounding scenery was very pleasant. The tower looks different from every angle, and it's also a great place to take photos as keepsakes.
Otaru Triangle Market

The Otaru Triangle Market, nestled between JR Otaru Station and National Route 5, is a small yet historic marketplace with origins dating back to the 1940s. It began with a few street vendors and developed as a morning market, accumulating over 60 years of history. Just a minute's walk from Otaru Station, the market is conveniently accessible and, except for New Year's Day, is open almost daily. Its reputation for affordable prices attracts a steady flow of both locals and tourists from Japan and abroad. The market's name derives from its triangular-shaped plot and roof.

Otaru Triangle Market is packed with seafood stalls. All kinds of fresh fish, crab, scallops, sea urchin, and more look very tempting. The stalls are lined up one after another, giving the market a lively, traditional atmosphere.

The biggest draw is the wide variety of seafood rice bowls. The ingredients look fresh and plentiful, and as you walk around, you can't help but keep looking and wanting to try everything. Besides shopping and seeing the canal in Otaru, I also highly recommend visiting Triangle Market to experience the local seafood culture!
Niseko Takahashi Dairy Farm

At the base of the majestic Mount Yotei lies a vast ranch, nestled in the beautiful and bountiful natural environment of Niseko. Here, with a commitment to quality soil and grass cultivation, dairy cows are meticulously reared. The process is comprehensive, spanning from the nurturing of the cows to the production of fresh milk products.

At Niseko Takahashi Dairy Farm, you definitely can't miss the farm's popular soft-serve ice cream! As soon as I got it, I noticed its rich aroma. It had a very strong milky flavor and was smooth and creamy, with every bite full of rich dairy goodness.
