Tips for Summer Weather and Clothing in Sapporo: The average temperature in July and August is around 25–26°C, making it quite pleasant.

When you think of Sapporo, you probably associate it with winter! But Sapporo has its own unique charm in all four seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. Among them, I highly recommend visiting Sapporo in the summer! 1.

The beautiful Furano area While places like Biei or Otaru are more stunning in winter, the Furano area near Sapporo truly shines in summer! Especially if you visit around July, you can enjoy the breathtaking lavender fields! 🌷🌹🌻 3. Perfect weather Summer in Sapporo feels like spring in Korea, making it ideal for traveling! The weather is so pleasant that even wearing short sleeves or light long sleeves feels cool and comfortable! ❤️ If you're wondering where to go in July or August, I strongly recommend summer in Sapporo! ❤️🤓

Nijo Market - Oiso🐟 Main Store Every time I come to Sapporo, I always visit here for a bowl of sea urchin rice bowl. The freshness and price advantage due to its local sourcing are unbeatable. Compared to Tokyo, the price is at least one-third cheaper, and it's even more affordable compared to prices in Taiwan. 🫢 This renowned shop in Nijo Market has been my go-to for three visits now. This time, I finally got to try their summer-exclusive, limited-edition dual-colored sea urchin rice bowl featuring purple sea urchin and horse-dung sea urchin 🥰. Of course, I indulged in an extra portion 🤭. Among the three sea urchin rice bowls I tried during this solo trip, this one was the most satisfying 😙. I planned to have brunch here, and it turned out to be a feast 🤭. The extra portion of the summer-exclusive dual-colored sea urchin rice bowl was luxurious, and I added 🦀 crab meat for an even richer experience. Additionally, I ordered the following Hokkaido-exclusive ingredients: 🐚 Hokkaido surf clam sashimi 🦐 Botan shrimp sashimi 🥔 Hokkaido buttered potato 🦪 Fresh oysters For those who prefer not to eat too much raw food, most items can be cooked. If you're unsure which shop to choose in Nijo Market, Oiso is a safe bet with no disappointments. You can confidently step in 😌. Shop Name: Nijo Market - Oiso Location: 〒060-0053 Hokkaido, Sapporo City, Chuo Ward, Minami 3-jo Higashi 2-chome Business Hours: 09:30 - 15:30

When you think of Hokkaido, you think of miso ramen 🍜 Sapporo is home to countless ramen shops, making it tough to decide where to eat during a limited itinerary. As a local, I’m here to recommend my top 5 picks for Sapporo miso ramen ☝️ 📍1. Shirakaba Sansou The highlight of this shop is the unlimited boiled eggs! A pile of boiled eggs is placed on the table, so you can enjoy them with a sprinkle of salt before your ramen arrives or add them to your ramen 🥰 Of course, their miso ramen is absolutely amazing ❤️ 📍2. Menya Kotetsu This shop is as famous for its fried chicken (zangi) as it is for its ramen. Many locals order the ramen and zangi set 😁 My personal recommendation is the shrimp miso ramen 🍜, a rich and flavorful ramen with a deep shrimp broth ☝️ 📍3. Ramen Ku While it used to have a location in central Sapporo, the shop unfortunately burned down and now operates only at New Chitose Airport. Many locals make the trip to the airport just to eat here. The must-try dish is the grilled corn miso ramen 🍜, featuring a generous amount of sweet corn that pairs perfectly with the rich miso soup! 📍4. Miso Ramen Yamaokaya This is Yamaokaya’s specialty miso ramen shop! They offer a variety of miso ramen options, but my top pick is the sesame miso ramen 🍜. The miso soup with plenty of ground sesame is simply irresistible ❤️ 📍5. Ebisoba Ichigen This shop is hugely popular among international visitors for its shrimp-based broth, which is used in all their ramen dishes. As you approach the shop, you’ll be greeted by the delightful aroma of shrimp broth. While “Ebi Shio” (shrimp salt ramen) is a favorite among overseas guests, my personal recommendation is “Ebi Miso”! Unlike the typical curly noodles of Sapporo ramen, they use straight medium-thick noodles. Sapporo is filled with countless ramen shops, so be sure to find your favorite spot 😙

If you haven't tried this place, you can't say you've truly been to Sapporo. // Jingisukan Daruma // Grilled Lamb 🐐 I've been craving this place for years and finally got to eat here again. One of the highlights of this trip was convincing my travel companion, who usually dislikes lamb, to give it a try. They ended up loving it and kept saying, "This is so delicious!" When I first started coming here, I insisted on dining at the main branch. However, the wait times there are quite long. Over time, more branches have opened in the Susukino area, offering more comfortable seating and much better ventilation systems. Some branches even allow online reservations. From my experience, the quality of the meat is consistent across all locations, so I no longer insist on going to the main branch. 😂 That said, even after dining at any branch, your clothes and hair will carry the smoky aroma as a souvenir. 🤣 But once you're home, you'll find yourself missing that flavor intensely. 😌 Store Name: Jingisukan Daruma Daruma Jingisukan Location: 〒064-0804 Hokkaido, Sapporo, Chuo-ku, Minami 4-jo Nishi 4-chome, 1F Business Hours: 12:00 PM - 11:00 PM

The best place for foliage and cherry blossoms in Sapporo. Includes the figure skating ice rink used in the Sapporo Olympics Makomanai Park was the main venue used in the 1972 Sapporo Olympics. “The Makomanai Sekisui Heim Ice Arena” is where the figure skater Janet Lynn charmed the people with her spectacular performance and it is opened to the public (admission fee required) during the winter months. There is a 3km circular course in the park, and is populated with runners and joggers during the summer and cross country skiers during the winter. On the 82ha park area, there are approximately 50,000 natural trees and a tree as old as 135 years. It is also a popular destination for visitors who want to enjoy viewing the foliage and the cherry blossoms. Dogtooth violets bloom in abundance in May and this is of the largest scale to grow naturally in a city park.

Easy access just a short walk from "Nakajima Koen" station on the Namboku subway line. This is the official website of Sapporo Park Hotel. Beautiful and clean hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Room is small but ok. Lovely view from .the room. Hotel is easily accessible

Moerenuma Park is designed by sculpture artist Isamu Noguchi as a work of sculpture art in itself. The park was reborn from a waste disposal site and transformed into an art park representative of Sapporo over a period of 23 years. The grand scale of this project earned it the name “landscape sculpture.” Visitors can enjoy different scenery depending on the time of the day and season. Instead of picturing yourself in a park, you should probably think of yourself as being inside a huge sculpture piece.

This massive 25.4hectare park boasts approximately 6,400 types of flowers and plants. The park features unique flowerbeds and gardens including the “World Lily Gardens,” where approximately 100 types of lilies collected from around the world can be seen, and the “World Gardens,” which comprise four different types of gardens built in collaboration with Sapporo’s sister cities Portland, Munich, and Shen Yang. From early summer to snowfall, visitors can see different flowers during different seasons. We recommend riding the “Lily Train,” which runs through the park and allows visitors to enjoy seasonal flowers from inside a comfortable train. The park golf course and restaurant tat serves lily bulbs are also popular.

Arrived in Sapporo in the evening and enjoyed a rich miso ramen at Shingen Ramen. The unforgettable taste of the soup was incredible. Its popularity is evident as even foreign tourists line up to try it. Took a stroll from Odori Park to the Clock Tower and TV Tower. Enjoyed the nightlife in Susukino and satisfied a small appetite with some seafood. Returned to the hotel and ended the night with yakisoba bento and Sapporo beer for a toast 🍻. On the final day of the trip, visited the Sapporo Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill, greeted the sheep and Dr. Clark, and concluded the journey with a meal at the Sapporo Beer Museum. The last meal in Hokkaido was Genghis Khan lamb barbecue, enjoyed with a special sauce and recommended salt seasoning. It was delicious. Hokkaido feels like a place that cleanses the soul. That's the impression it leaves.

Odori Park is an oasis with 92 types of trees including lilacs and elm stands located in the middle of a business district. On its lawns and around its fountains, one can find locals and tourists alike relaxing. Odori Park is called a park, but it’s really a street. In 1871, a firebreak, which cuts central Sapporo into is northern and southern parts, was built. The firebreak became Shiribeshi Dori, which was renamed Odori. Odori Park, which is usually a very calm and relaxed space, is also used for many of Hokkaido’s best-known seasonal events, such as the Snow Festival in the winter, Lilac Festival in the spring, YOSAKOI Soran Festival and beer garden in the summer, and Autumn Festival, which brings together various Hokkaido cuisines, in the fall. In the heart of Sapporo, the iconic Odori Park stretches east to west for 12 blocks (approximately 1.5km) from 1-Chome to 12-Chome and takes about 30 minutes to walk its entire length.#cherry_blossoms #myitinerary #travel #couplestrip #naturalwonders #familytravel #myitinerary

Nakajima Park offers a serene escape into nature, especially during sakura (cherry blossom) season. The park feels worlds away from the busy sights and sounds of the city, with quiet paths winding beneath the cherry blossoms. Locals leisurely stroll the paths and gather for peaceful picnics under the sakura trees- creating a gentle, unhurried atmosphere. The lake mirrors the blossoms beautifully, adding to the sense of calm and connection to nature. Nakajima Park is the perfect place to slow down and savor the fleeting beauty of spring.

Lovely park. Winter has just ended, and spring has come! It's such a wonderful scene, seeing the icy lake slowly melting, bugs waking up from a deep slumber, and birds flying back from the south, This scenery reminds me of rebirth, of second chances, and of new beginnings. What a beautiful world we live in. #naturalwonders #cherry_blossoms #couplestrip #travel #myitinerary

Hokkaido is Japan’s northernmost island, known for its stunning natural landscapes, fresh seafood, and seasonal beauty. It features vast mountains, lush forests, and hot springs, making it a paradise for outdoor lovers. In winter, Hokkaido transforms into a snowy wonderland with world-class ski resorts like Niseko and the famous Sapporo Snow Festival. In summer, fields of lavender and colorful flowers bloom in Furano. The island is also home to unique wildlife and national parks. Hokkaido’s culture is influenced by the indigenous Ainu people. It offers a peaceful atmosphere, far from the busy cities of Japan’s mainland.

On the way from Sapporo to Otaru, just before approaching Ishikari Bay, you'll pass by JR Hoshimi Station. Right outside the station lies "Star Observatory Green Space," the only buffer green park in Sapporo's city center. This park offers a blend of mountain and sea views, along with spring cherry blossoms and autumn foliage. It's not only a popular cherry blossom viewing spot near Sapporo but also a great place for stargazing at night. The park features around 400 cherry trees, including the common white Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms and the unique pink Ezo mountain cherry blossoms native to Hokkaido. With the green space and blue sky as the backdrop, it's a picturesque location for photography. In autumn, the red and yellow hues of the foliage on both sides of Mount Teine create a stunning landscape. From Sapporo Station, you can take the JR Hakodate Main Line and reach the park in just 23 minutes after passing 9 stations. If you're heading to Otaru, it's only 5 stations and 21 minutes away.

#Sapporo Sakura Shinkawa, not far to the north of Hokkaido University, is lined with Ezo cherry trees and Yoshino cherry trees. The 10-kilometer-long embankment trail is said to be the longest row of cherry trees in Japan. It is also the best place to view cherry blossoms in spring. You can see the lights from daytime to night, and the spring scenery is very beautiful. To get to Shinkawa Crossroads Park from Sapporo Station, you can take the JR to Shinkawa or Hachiken, and then walk to the Shinkawa River. If you are physically fit, you can choose to ride a bicycle, which only takes 20 minutes. Riding a bicycle in Hokkaido is quite pleasant. #Sapporo #Shinkawa

#Sapporo Sakura There is a secret cherry blossom viewing spot called "Toyohira River Sakura-no-Mori" in the riverside green space next to Sapporo IC and Kita-24jo Bridge. As the name suggests, it is a place where cherry blossoms are in full bloom. There are more than 500 cherry trees planted along the green space along the river, ranging from the early-blooming Ezoyama cherry blossoms to the late-blooming Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms, extending the entire flowering period to a full month. Due to the inconvenient transportation, it is only suitable to drive there, so that the crowds of people who come to see the cherry blossoms will not be crowded. You can take a leisurely walk and enjoy the flowers. The cherry blossoms swaying in the wind are very beautiful. But after all, Hokkaido is located at a high altitude, and the wind on the river is cooler, so it is still a little cold and you need to keep warm. #Hokkaido #Sapporo #豊平川

#Sapporo Sakura #Nakajima Park is a famous maple viewing spot in Sapporo city. In fact, there are also cherry blossoms to enjoy in spring. Ezoyama cherry blossoms, Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms, Yaezakura, etc. are planted around the pond and in the green space. Although the scale and number of cherry blossoms are not as spectacular as maple leaves, surrounded by high-rise buildings and set against the beautiful Toheikan, Nakajima Park is also decorated with spring cherry romance. The biggest advantage of cherry blossom viewing in Nakajima Park is probably its extremely convenient transportation. You can take the Sapporo subway directly to Nakajima Park Station at the head end or Horohirabashi Station at the tail end. As soon as you exit the station, you will be right in front of Nakajima Park, which is known as an urban oasis. There are also many restaurants and shops around it, so you can eat and go shopping after enjoying the flowers. It is extremely convenient. Strolling along the cherry blossom path around the lake in Nakajima Park or rowing a boat on the lake are both very pleasant ways to enjoy the cherry blossoms. The flowing water, green willows and spring cherry blossoms under the small bridges create a charming spring painting. #Sapporo #Hokkaido Cherry Blossom Viewing
