Japan's northernmost point JR Wakkanai, Roadside Station Wakkanai, Breakwater Dome

Wakkanai is surprisingly convenient for travelling to and from Hokkaido, with planes, ferries and JR lines. What's even more surprising is that all of these means of transport are within a 20-minute drive! And JR Wakkanai is in the same building as the roadside station, making it a place of relaxation for local residents. It's packed with all the service facilities you can think of, including a tourist information centre, cafe, cinema, market, kids' area and other citizen-oriented corners, a convenience store (Seico Mart) and more, all in one place. It also seems that you can get the "Northernmost" certificate of the "Japanese mainland four poles exploration certificate", which is issued at the "Northernmost", "Easternmost", "Southernmost" and "Westernmost" points. ◎JR Wakkanai Roadside Station Wakkanai 3-6 Chuo, Wakkanai, Hokkaido ◎Breakwater Dome 1-Kaiun, Wakkanai, Hokkaido #gw2022jp #HokkaidoTrip #Hokkaido #NorthernmostPoint #NorthernmostStation
