北海道 – RURUBU & ALL WAY JAPAN

City Overview

Hokkaido is a place where the culture of the indigenous Ainu remains in the color, and its own language and traditions are still inherited. During the period of the Meiji period, the pioneer of Hokkaido was installed, and Sapporo, Hakodate, and Otaru developed, thus laying the foundation for agriculture and dairy farming. The city of Sapporo is the largest city in Hokkaido, and includes Sapporo City Clock Tower and Odori Park, as well as the former main government building of the Hokkaido Government. The lavender fields of Furano and the field fields of the Tokatsu Plain have also become tourist destinations. You can enjoy majestic natural expanses on the Shiretoko Peninsula and Kushiro Marsh. Events such as the Sapporo Snow Festival and the Asahikawa Winter Festival are also popular as tourist resources.
