🗺️【Travel Route】 Day 1: Susukino City Day 2: Sapporo City Day 3: Head to Niseko for skiing (Be aware of weather and bus operations, as heavy snow may cause service suspension) Day 4: Niseko skiing Day 5: Head to Nakajima Park Hotel (We had our luggage sent to the hotel by taxi in advance, so it wasn't too chaotic) Day 6: Otaru, very slippery, the glass/wood crafts are beautiful Day 7: Furano Asahiyama Zoo day trip (The schedule is a bit tight, but you can basically see everything you want) Day 8: Shiroi Koibito Park + Sapporo Beer Museum + Ario Mall (workman, abc mart, uniqlo, gu, studio clip, capsule toys, claw machines, food court, personally I think it's a great place to shop) Day 9: Return trip 📍【Must-Visit Attractions】 Niseko's powder snow is very comfortable, and the instructors are super attentive 🥘【Must-Eat Food】 Soup curry, crab dishes 🏠【Accommodation Recommendations】 1. MYSTAYS Sapporo Nakajima Park Hotel If you don't like too much hustle and bustle, I don't recommend staying in Susukino. Personally, I think Susukino is similar to Ikebukuro/Shinjuku in Kanto, with lots of bunny girls and free information centers on the streets 📷【Photo Spots】 Otaru is really beautiful, but very slippery 📣【Tips】 Don't bring too many heat packs, you won't use them all, really 😂

🇯🇵Biei & Furano are small towns in Hokkaido with beautiful natural scenery like a painting, especially in winter when almost the entire area is covered in pure white snow, creating a peaceful and romantic atmosphere. There are also many things to do, such as driving and visiting various nature spots, or winter activities such as snowmobiling, sledding, and soaking in hot springs. 🌲Mild Seven Hill A hill that stands out with a row of cypress trees planted on a high hill, which was once used as a location for a Mild Seven cigarette commercial in the 1970s. There is a parking lot on the opposite side of this spot. 🌲Christmas Tree A single tree shaped like a Christmas tree, standing tall amidst a field of pure white snow, giving a sense of loneliness, but at the same time, it has its own charm. This place is parked on the side of the road. ☃️Panoramic Flower Gardens Shikisai no oka, a wide open space that has changed from a field of colorful flowers to a vast snowy land. Here, there are Snow Mobile activities to choose from with various distances, such as a 30-60 minute tour, a distance of 10 km, priced at ¥15,200 (3,400 baht) for 2 people. (🚨We tried to book here online before going, but it was unsuccessful. So we planned to walk in. In the end, they didn't let us. What a pity. We saw that there were only tours that allowed us to play. I don't know if they only accept tours. Anyone who knows, please tell me) ☕️𝐂𝐚𝐟𝐞 𝐊𝐢𝐭𝐚 𝐊𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐨𝐡 10.00-18.00 (Homemade roasted coffee beans, North Industry) A small cafe hidden in Biei, Hokkaido, stands out with its own roasted coffee beans that give a rich and fragrant taste. The atmosphere of the shop is quiet, decorated warmly with wood and knickknacks that give a feeling like a Japanese-style house. 🍛Junpei (11.00-15.00 Closed on Mon) An old restaurant that has been open since 1977 in Furano City, it is famous for its “Omu Curry” or egg-wrapped rice topped with a special curry recipe that is rich and fragrant with spices. In addition to the famous menu, The shop also has a variety of homemade Japanese food to choose from. The atmosphere inside the shop is warm like an old house. (🚨We really wanted to eat at this shop. We waited in line for about 30 minutes, but it turned out that a tour group arrived at that time, causing a very long queue because we had to let the tour group that had booked enter first. In the end, we gave up. If we have a chance next time, we will go back and try it. Or if anyone has tried it before, how was the taste? Please recommend it.) 🏔️Shirahige Waterfall or "Whitebeard Waterfall" is located in Biei City. It is a unique waterfall because the water flows out of a crack in the cliff face instead of flowing down from the river. The highlight is the clear blue color of the water that comes from natural minerals. It is especially beautiful in winter when it is covered in snow. This waterfall is also the source of the famous Blue Pond (Aoi Ike), making it a tourist spot worth visiting all year round. 🦮Furano Trekking Support YUMA 9:00-15:00 An outdoor activity center in Furano City that provides nature-based tourism activities such as dog sledding in winter and horseback riding in summer. The dog sledding course costs around ¥3,000+ and takes 30 minutes. Advance booking is required. (🚨When we went, it seemed like they weren't open yet. I was a bit disappointed, so I could only take pictures of the dogs from a distance with concern.) 🛖Ningle terrace 12:00-20:45 A village of wooden cottages in the middle of a pine forest in Furano, built based on the idea of ​​the famous writer So Kuramoto, who intended this place to be a place to gather handicrafts by local artists. The atmosphere is super romantic, especially in the evening when the orange lights shine on the snow in winter (they turn on the lights around 16:00). Inside, there are handmade shops, small cafes, and many beautiful photo spots. (🚨There's also a Furano ski resort in this area, but we arrived late, so we didn't have time to go in and see it.) 🚘 We rented a car at Toyota Rent a Car, Asahikawa station shop, about 210 meters from Asahikawa train station and right across from our accommodation (Hotel Route Inn Grand Asahikawa Ekimae) in this city. #NewYearNewTrip #BeautifulPhotoSpots #TravelAbroad #Travel to Japan #Hokkaido #hokkaido #winter travel

#2月好地方2025 In Furano, Hokkaido, I had the most delicious soup curry, so delicious that I licked the plate clean! Furanoya カレーのふらのや, a soup curry specialty store, is located next to Furano Shrine and City Hall. After we visited the Forest Spirit Terrace, we checked the nearby restaurants and this one had the highest score, so we drove over without saying a word! The exterior of Furanoya's log cabin is very cute, and there is a whole wall of comic books inside the store. As soon as I entered, I smelled the rich aroma of curry and my stomach immediately became hungry! The four of us ordered the signature soup curry, served with fried pork chops or fried chicken. The turmeric rice went well with the spicy soup curry. The soup was full of wild vegetables and was delicious. The curry soup was so good that it was quickly cleared out. Hokkaido has beautiful mountains and waters, and the ingredients grown here are very fresh and sweet. Combined with the versatile curry, anything cooked in it is delicious. No wonder soup curry is so popular. It is so delicious that you want to have another bowl of rice!

Hokkaido 2025 ❄️ Hokkaido travel plan review We traveled with the JR Rail Pass because we traveled from another region to Hokkaido. ❄️ Day 1: Hakodate - A lovely city, good atmosphere, fresh seafood from the sea. The highlight is the red brick warehouse, which is a check-in point for anyone who goes there. Take beautiful pictures and don't miss it. If you come to this city, you must eat the famous burger Lucky Pierrot, which is only available in Hakodate. Especially if you come to the branch near the red brick warehouse, we sat and ate while enjoying the sea view. It was so happy. If you come to Hakodate, we recommend staying here at least 1 night because it takes quite a long time to get here. There are many other highlights to check in. Day 2: Noboribetsu - The highlight of this city is the Hell Valley. It has a very beautiful valley view. Take beautiful pictures and have fun. Every corner of this place is beautiful. I recommend you to come here. ☺️ Day 3: Otaru - We like this city the most. It is a small but charming city. It is romantic and cute no matter where you walk. There is the Otaru Canal that you must not miss, and the Music Box Museum with its many music boxes. Along the Otaru promenade, there are many shops. Time flies so fast. I think Otaru is a small city that is very cute and romantic. Day 4: Asahikawa - Today, we rented a car from Sapporo to go see the penguins walking around at 11:00. I recommend coming when it opens at 10:30 to wait in line for them. I have to say that they are very cute. Then - In the afternoon, we drove to Biei to take pictures with the Christmas Tree and Mild Seven Hill. I have to say that the real thing is very beautiful. - After taking pictures with the tree, we traveled to Ningle Terrace, which is like a small village. There are cute handmade shops in this village. Taking pictures here is beautiful and romantic. Day 5: Sapporo - Today, we are in the city. Shopping, and the shopping area here is probably Susukino, which is a center of products. This is the only place to come. A place to eat and shop until you drop. ☺️❤️ Day 6: Sapporo - Today is January 1, 2025. Most shops are closed, including department stores. Almost everything is closed. We know that people here go to pray for blessings on New Year's Day. We also went to pray for blessings at Hokkaido-Jingu Shrine. I must say that there were a lot of people. It was like the whole city gathered here. But it was good to come here. We were full of joy and happiness to welcome the New Year. 🙂❤️ Most shops are closed on New Year's Day. But there are still some restaurants open for us to eat. Don't worry. 🤣 Day 7: Prepare to go back. - Today, there's not much. Just stop by to buy some things that we haven't finished yet and fly back to Thailand. 😁❄️ *** In fact, there are many more tourist attractions in Sapporo, such as the Clock Tower, the Old Government Office, the City Hall, and others. If you come, I'd like you to stop by. 😃 This is my second time in Hokkaido. There are some places that I didn't go to. On this trip, I focused on places that I want to go back to and miss. Hope to come again Hokkaido ❄️❤️ #hokkaido #sapporo #hakodate #traveljapan #traveljapanbyyourself #japan #noboribetsu #otaru #furano

Hokkaido’s winter is so beautiful! Southerners have a longing for snow, and they really wish they could spend the whole winter in Hokkaido! In late December of previous years, the snow in Hokkaido arrived as promised, like a paradise for powder snow. With the Ice and Snow Festival, the dazzling night view🌃, and the warm yellow lights shining on the snow-covered streets, Hokkaido in winter is like a love letter💌. 🏨In terms of accommodation, you need to book in advance, because winter is the peak season and the hotel 💴 is on the higher side. A friend from the hotel recommended staying near Odori Station. Sapporo's three subway lines all pass there, so it's very convenient for subsequent trips. 🚇 Use Google Maps to find detailed transportation guides for the subway. Station exits, departure times, and trains are all marked. It is recommended to prepare transfer information. 🚗In terms of itinerary, if you are visiting Otaru and Sapporo, it is very convenient to take JR or subway; if you want to go to Asahikawa Zoo, Biei Aoike, Furano and other places, it is recommended to charter a car. Although JR can get there, the round trip is more time-consuming, and the shuttle bus time is fixed . ⛷️In terms of skiing, Sapporo Ski Resort has a unique forest slide, where you can ski and soak in hot springs, and the transportation is very convenient. The scenery of Furano Ski Resort is also very beautiful. The Niseko Ski Resort is now open and is suitable for experienced skiers and families. The resort facilities are relatively complete, but the price is high. 👔In terms of clothing, hats, scarves🧣, fleece thermal clothes and heating socks should be prepared. The cold of minus ten degrees is really biting, and there is heating indoors. 🥾In terms of shoes, snow shoes should be waterproof, non-slip and warm. You can buy anti-slip mats at FamilyMart and Lawson supermarkets in Sapporo. 💰As for expenses, if you want to live well and have fun in Hokkaido, you have to be prepared to spend. Especially hotels in Niseko are not cheap, and public transportation is not very convenient. 💕Suggested itinerary: Day1: Domestic - Sapporo. Day2: Sapporo - Otaru - Tengu Mountain Cable Car - Otaru Aquarium or Otaru's Dream Blue Light Festival. Day3: Otaru - Enjoy a full day at the powder snow paradise and Niseko Ski Park. Day4: Ski Resort - Hakodate: Kanamori Warehouse - Goryokaku Park - Tropical Botanical Garden - Mount Hakodate. Day5: Hakodate - Hakodate Market - Noboribetsu Hell Valley - Noboribetsu Date Jidai Village. Day6: Return to China 👉👉Tips: During the peak winter season, 💴 will be more expensive. It is recommended that you get a few friends to travel together and rent a car, which is more cost-effective!

There are relatively few dinner options in Furano, so we saw a highly rated hot pot restaurant on Google Maps and decided to eat there! Who knew this place is so delicious🤍 It has 2 floors and is a family run hot pot restaurant. We arrived at the restaurant around 5 o'clock and asked about the earliest dining time. Fortunately, I asked early and made an appointment. Otherwise, if the store is full, we won’t allow walk-in customers! We ordered one beef, one pig and one lamb. Its soup base is very light, focusing on the original flavor of the ingredients. Of the three types of meat, my favorite is pork 😋 Hokkaido pork tastes very refreshing and a little sweet, very delicious 🤍 Their vegetables are also amazing! I recommend everyone to not miss this hot pot restaurant in Furano👍🏼 しゃぶしゃぶ处 Sen Cheng 📍Address: 〒076-0026 １−19 Asahi-cho, Furano City, Hokkaido 🕰️Opening hours: 17:00-21:30 💰Average consumption per person: ¥3000 #SeptemberDestinations2024 #Hokkaido #Furano

I'd like to go to Furano in the best season of summer! I've been thinking about it for a long time, so I went on a trip there this year. It takes about 2:30 hours by car from New Chitose Airport. Each site is huge and it takes time to move around, so it's important to plan your trip with plenty of time. Furano is full of tourists in the best season, and it's hard to park your car in the parking lot, but the beauty and splendor make up for that. It seems like a good idea to stay in the Furano area for two nights and go to popular tourist spots early in the morning! Recommended tourist spots 📍Farm Tomita It's a very famous tourist spot, but it's still a wonderful place that I'm glad I went to. 📍Blue Pond It's been very crowded in recent years. It's a very beautiful place with sparkling light. 📍Shikisai no Oka A popular tourist spot visited by many tourists! It's very crowded, but I highly recommend getting on a cart to go to the flower fields! #Japan Travel Memories #Hokkaido Trip #Furano Sightseeing #100 Travel Styles
