Hokkaido - Onuma Park, Centennial Women's Convent, Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse

Currently, direct flights to Hakodate are operated by Starlux Airlines and Tigerair Taiwan, which makes Hakodate a popular destination for Taiwanese tourists. The international airport is quite small, with only one baggage carousel and a single duty-free shop. For lunch, we had Hakodate's exclusive Lucky Pierrot burger at Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse. Besides burgers, there are plenty of other options to choose from. The warehouse area is filled with various shops, reminiscent of Kaohsiung's Pier-2 Art Center. Next, we visited the Centennial Women's Convent, established by eight nuns sent from France for missionary work. The convent is still home to nuns today and offers some souvenirs for sale. Finally, we explored Onuma Quasi-National Park, one of Japan's New Three Views. The park features a lake adorned with 126 small and large islands scattered like exquisite bonsai arrangements. The islands are connected by 18 bridges, creating a stunning and picturesque scene that is truly a marvel.
