This guide is suitable for friends who have limited time and only visit Sapporo and Otaru. 1️⃣Accommodation Sapporo Grand Hotel From New Chitose Airport Station, take the Rapid Airport Line directly to Sapporo Station, and walk ten minutes to the hotel. The accommodation experience is perfect, you can walk to the city center and commercial street, there are many convenience stores around, and it is very convenient to go to the airport. 2️⃣Transportation On the first day, around 11:00 am, take the local line from Sapporo Station with Otaru as the final stop. You can use a watermelon card to enter the station or buy a ticket at the machine. After selecting your destination, insert coins according to the displayed amount. After entering the station, be sure to take your ticket! It will be used when exiting! If you want to get to Otaru quickly, you can take the Rapid Line. Some stations will not stop in the middle. Because we wanted to get off and see the sea, we took the Local Line (the ticket will be invalid if you get off in the middle). Most people choose to get off at Asari Station, but you can also get off at Zenibako Station, the previous stop of Asari Station. There are fewer people, you can walk directly to the beach, and if you are hungry, you can go to 711 to buy a rice ball 77. Next, return to Zenibako Station and take the train to Otaru. On the way back, we chose the Rapid Line, which will be faster. 3️⃣Otaru🤩 My favorite Hokkaido city, after all, the movies "Love Letter" and "First Love" were filmed here, especially romantic! The city is relatively small, one day is enough. Get off at Minami-Otaru Station and walk down a slope for about ten minutes. Turn around to Otaru Commercial Street and walk to Otaru Station. The bus to Mount Tengu departs from the bus stop next to Otaru Station. You can buy tickets, swipe your watermelon card, or pay 240 yen by coin when you get off. On the second day, get off at Otaru Station directly, and immediately go to Funamiseki. This whole day is for city walking, then walk from Funamiseki to Otaru Canal. 4️⃣Mount Tengu🏔️ Cable car 1600 yen for adult round trip, manual ticket purchase takes one minute. To prevent the cable car from closing early, we went up the mountain at 2:30 pm. You can wait for the blue hour on the mountain. If it snows heavily, you can wait in the window seat of the rest room. If it stops snowing, you can go out and play in the woods. You can also take a photo of the same style as "Love Letter". 5️⃣Food Otaru Seafood Restaurant Sawazaki Suisan No. 3 Crab rice is more expensive but delicious. Very small shop. Sapporo's soup curry must be eaten! Kinotoya Bake's milk ice cream is also super delicious!

There's always a winter to go to Hokkaido, so I came to Otaru. 'Love Letter' was filmed many years ago, but the 2021 re-screening on 520 was the first time I saw it, so I have memories of Otaru. 🌲【Recommended Otaru Attractions】Suitable for 1 day tour The main attractions in Otaru are Otaru Canal, Funamizaka, Tengu Mountain, and Asari Station. Otaru Canal and Funamizaka are not far from Otaru Station, about 300-500 meters away, you can quickly shoot and stroll around. Asari is suitable for getting off the train from Sapporo to Otaru for a quick shoot, then you can get on the train, or you can pass by when you return to Sapporo from Otaru. 【About Tengu Mountain Guide】(Must See) 🚌Transportation: Take the No. 9 bus from the 4th platform at the entrance of JR Otaru Station to Tengu Mountain, the one-way fare is 240 yen. 🎫Cable Car Ticket: Queue up to buy the cable car ticket immediately after arrival, the round-trip price is 1600 yen, it is more cost-effective to swipe wx. Swipe zfb or wx as much as possible in Japan, the exchange rate is good, save money. ⏰Time: It is recommended to arrive at Tengu Mountain at 2-3 o'clock, you can shoot the scenery from day to night. The night view can be shot when it gets dark at 4 o'clock, don't wait until it's pitch black to shoot, you can't shoot anything, and there are a lot of people going up the mountain from 4-5 o'clock, and the queue is freezing. Remember to go up the mountain at 2 o'clock no matter what, go to the place you haven't shot the next day. Remember. ⛰️Mountain Top Environment: There is a house on the top of the mountain, it is very warm inside, you can eat and drink, there are many people in line. You can go out and shoot for a while and come in to warm up, it's also nice to shoot the cable car through the glass, there are only two cable cars, one red and one blue. The red one looks good. There is a shrine, a pavilion, and a tree on the top of the mountain. It's beautiful to go when the weather is clear, you can see the whole Otaru and the coastline, if you have the conditions, it's beautiful to shoot with a telephoto camera. The brighter the clothes in the snow, the better. You can also imitate the 'Love Letter' black coat. 🏨Hotel: Otaru hotels are almost all near the station, just a few hundred meters walk, very convenient, and eating is also convenient.

There is a bus to Tengu Mountain in front of Otaru Station, it is recommended to get on the bus at the terminal, rush to arrive before dark, fight for time to take pictures📸️ and you can enjoy the day and night view😍 If you plan to go skiing⛷️, you should go up a little early! Because in winter it's sunset and dark at about 4:30. You can take the cable car up the mountain to enjoy the view, and up the mountain there is a Cafe where you can warm up indoors and enjoy the night view. Up the hill you can see the whole view of Otaru, both day and night view is beautiful! Worth a look😆 #Japan Attractions #New Year Good Places #Hokkaido #Tengu Mountain #Otaru #attractions #skiing #foodie #traveltheworld

The night view is called one of the three night scenes of Hokkaido. It is also a small ski resort every winter. At the beginning of the movie "Love Letter", the place where Watanabe Bozi runs wildly in the snow is the scene taken at this ski resort. The observation deck on the top of the mountain overlooks the entire small raft, and the view of the small raft is unobstructed.

🌟 Record your trip to Hokkaido! I stayed at the Okudine Sankei Onsen Kasatsu Gyoen. Each room has a hot spring and the price includes breakfast and dinner. 🍽️ I also went to Otaru to taste king crab. Although the price is a bit expensive, it is well worth it! 🦀 Pictures 5-6 are at Furano Fairy Terrace, the scenery is super beautiful. 🌸 On the way, we also visited Biei’s “Lonely Christmas Tree” 🎄, which was contracted by Koreans, and Tengu Mountain, where “Love Letter” was filmed, which was extremely romantic. 💌 Walking on the streets of Sapporo, the BGM of Utada Hikaru's "First Love" seems to be playing in my ears. 🎶 Some places are enough to visit once, but Hokkaido is definitely worth a second or third visit! ❄️ Good night, workers. If you go to bed later, you won’t be able to move the bricks tomorrow. 💤 #向North, admiring the light of the snow country #Hokkaido #Japan #Christmastree #Kingcrab #Audingshan

❄️In Hakodate, it was sunny and snowy for a while, and the million-dollar night view that people were looking forward to finally revealed a little bit in the heavy fog. 🌲In Asahikawa and Furano, we deliberately chose good weather, the sun was shining brightly, and the Christmas trees looked particularly beautiful in the sunshine. 🌨️The snow in Otaru is really frustrating. Everyone who has been there knows that the visibility is very poor, and I don’t even want to go up Mount Tengu. #Japan#Hokkaido#Otaru#Christmas tree#Furano#Beiei#Asahikawa Zoo#Sapporo#Hakodate

|Otaru in one go. Otaru Day Trip: My Experience Sharing This time, I started from Sapporo and chose a day trip to Otaru, which completely exceeded my expectations! In the morning, I took the JR Hakodate Main Line from Sapporo, which is a 40-minute ride. It is very convenient. As soon as I got off the train, I could feel the unique atmosphere of Otaru. First stop: Romantic stroll along the Otaru Canal🏞 As soon as I got off the train, I couldn't wait to go to the famous Otaru Canal. Although I had seen many photos before, the feeling of seeing it in person was still shocking. The well-preserved old warehouse buildings on both sides of the canal seem to tell the history of this town. I especially like the tranquility here. In the morning, the canal reflects the blue sky and white clouds, giving a feeling of transcending the hustle and bustle. At dusk, the lights along the canal gradually light up, and the entire canal is particularly romantic under the lights, making it a great place to take photos. Second stop: Otaru Music Box Hall, rediscover your childhood🎶 Next, I went to the Otaru Music Box Hall on the old street. As soon as I walked into this retro-style building, I was greeted by a variety of exquisite music boxes, as if I had entered a fairy tale world. In addition to admiring and purchasing, I also had the opportunity to experience DIY music boxes, which was a special experience! The store also has historical exhibits, and the details reveal the dedication of Otaru craftsmen. Lunch: Taste authentic sushi🍣 Of course, you can't miss Otaru's fresh seafood at lunchtime! I chose a sushi restaurant near the canal, Sushi Ichiwan. Hokkaido's seafood is indeed well-deserved. The sea urchin and salmon I ordered melted in my mouth, and the taste was superb. The exquisite craftsmanship of Otaru's sushi chefs and the freshest ingredients really satisfied my appetite. Afternoon: Stroll through Kitaichi Glass Gallery🛍 After lunch, I slowly walked into the Kitaichi Glass Gallery, which displays a variety of handmade glass products. Each piece of glass art is exquisite, especially the colorful glass cups and vases, which are simply eye-catching. I also participated in the on-site glass making experience, and I made a small glass ornament myself as a special souvenir of my trip. Climb to the top of Mount Tengu, overlooking the entire Otaru⛰ At dusk, I took the cable car to Mount Tengu. Standing on the top of the mountain, the entire Otaru city and the distant Ishikari Bay are in full view. The scenery is so beautiful that it takes your breath away, especially at sunset, when the light shines on the sea surface, sparkling, as if the town is covered with a golden glow. Mount Tengu is also a popular ski resort in winter, but in summer and autumn, hiking here and enjoying the natural beauty of Otaru is also a unique experience. Summary: Otaru's romance and warmth💭 Otaru's beauty lies not only in its scenery, but also in its comfortable and leisurely atmosphere. Whether it's a romantic stroll along the canal, or the exquisite handicrafts of the Otaru Music Box Hall and Kitaichi Glass Gallery, I can experience the unique charm of Otaru. If you are in Hokkaido, I highly recommend visiting this historic town.

Hokkaido, Otaru City, Mogami 2-16-15 (Transportation) Travel Guide: The Otaru Bus Terminal is next to the JR Otaru Station, with a dedicated bus to Tengu Mountain, departing every 15 minutes. Wait for the bus at platform 4 of the Otaru Bus Terminal, and take the No. 9 line to Tengu Mountain. We took a taxi from the aquarium just in time for sunset to the cable car station. The automatic ticket machine can only purchase bus tickets to Tengu Mountain, 220 yen for a one-way trip. At the ticket window, you can buy a set ticket for 1750 yen, which includes the cable car ticket and a one-day Otaru bus pass. Operating Hours: The cable car operates from 9:30 to 21:00. It is recommended to go in the evening, as it gets dark in Otaru around four or five in the afternoon. The moment the lights are turned on, you can capture this unique blue tone.

Otaru, a port city in the southwestern part of Hokkaido, Japan, serves as the outer port of Sapporo, facing the Ishikari Bay. It is located in the western part of Hokkaido, facing the Ishikari Bay, and developed about 100 years ago as the maritime gateway of Hokkaido. It flourished to the utmost, with numerous banks and businesses flocking here to develop, and it was even called the 'Wall Street of the North'. The night in Otaru is so quiet, strolling on the streets, looking for local delicacies. 🌈 Transportation Tips Take a train from JR Sapporo Station to JR Otaru Station or JR Minami-Otaru Station, with a one-way fare of 750 yen, and a travel time of 30 minutes (rapid train) to 45 minutes (local train) 🌈 Otaru Highlights 1⃣️ In the past, the canal was crowded with numerous sampans loading and unloading goods, and the banks were lined with brick and stone warehouses, a scene of bustling activity. Today, these warehouse buildings have been converted into glass craft shops, teahouses, restaurants, and large stores. 2⃣️ In front of Otaru Station, you can take a public bus and then transfer to the Tengu Mountain Ropeway to reach the summit. This boundless world of mountains and sea covered in snow is one of the three major night views of Hokkaido. 3⃣️ Hokkaido Glass Pavilion, the Romantic Pavilion, and Otaru Canal, to be honest, are just average. A group of people from our country squatting on the thickly snow-covered riverbank, holding cameras towards the canal, muttering to themselves not knowing what to shoot 4⃣️ The much-anticipated Triangle Seafood Market closes after evening, and I didn't get to eat there. The popular restaurants concentrated across the canal are the next stop to look forward to. The seafood rice from Zazeki Marine Products, the robatayaki seafood from Tsurukichi. They are all small restaurants, with seating for 10 people, hard to get a seat.

9AM take the JR from Sapporo to Asari Station There are 'ordinary' and 'express' trains to Otaru, 'ordinary' 750 yen 💴 You must choose the 'ordinary' slow train! Only the slow train will stop at Kanhane and Asari, and you can start taking sea views from Kanhane If you want to see the sea, you must sit 👉 on the seat by the window on the right If you want to sit in a row of seats, you must choose the carriage with fewer people! This way you can take the same style as Spirited Away - Sapporo➡️Asari Station➡️Funamizaka➡️Triangle Market➡️Otaru Canal➡️Otaru Canal Cafeteria➡️Commercial Street➡️Tengu Mountain - 🚉Asari Station🌟🌟🌟🌟 Don't leave the station‼️You can take pictures of the sea and the station sign, walk across the overpass to the opposite station sign, the background is the sea🌊, I personally think it's very photogenic, after taking pictures, you can continue to Otaru by car About 15 minutes a car, don't worry, you can take your time to take pictures, when the car comes, just get on, no need to swipe your card again 🚉Otaru Station It's about a 10-minute walk from the station to Funamizaka 💙Funamizaka The filming location of 'Love Letter', a street leading straight to the sea, it will look very good when the weather is good 💙Triangle Market 💙Otaru Canal A very boring place, with some sense of age 💙Otaru Canal Cafeteria It's a converted warehouse, there's a lot of food inside 💙Commercial Street About 1 kilometer long, not very interested The melon ice cream is delicious😋 Avoid eating at Zeqi Aquatic Products❌❌ They treat Chinese people differently, the boss lady has a very stinky face, but if you can speak Japanese, she is very flattering, a bowl of seafood rice bowl 250+ still have to look at her stinky face, can't share! Suddenly feel like a fool, who is pushing this shop?! - 🚠Tengu Mountain🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 🎫Cable car round trip ticket: 1600 yen 💴 The filming location of 'Love Letter' and 'First Love', very photogenic! Especially like it here, you can overlook the whole city🌆, known as one of the three best night views in Hokkaido Go up around 3 pm, you can take a lot of pictures, there is a lot of snow, you can also watch the sunset! Play until the lights are on, took a night view and left, around six o'clock, don't dare to stay too long, afraid to wait for the cable car for a long time, because there are only two cable cars😂 - ⚠️The bus has operating hours, the interval is long, it's cold at night in winter, it's recommended to take a taxi after the cable car comes down, we two people found two people to share a car down the mountain, the cost is cheaper than taking a bus, the key is that you can leave immediately! Take a 🚕 taxi directly to Otaru Station and return to Sapporo ⚠️The Tengu Mountain cable car will be suspended in bad weather, so it is recommended to check the weather before you go This route is very leisurely, because we both like to take pictures, spend more time taking pictures, but not in a hurry at all, and very photogenic

⭕ Be sure to check the weather conditions in advance! The operating status of the Tengu Mountain cable car can be checked on the official website! I was the one who queued up to buy tickets and was temporarily notified of the suspension of operations, waited for more than an hour and had to return reluctantly, just got on the bus and learned that the cable car resumed operations. ❓ How to check in at Tengu Mountain? 1️⃣ Take the JR to station, every 30 minutes, 750 yen per person. Travel along the sea, sit on the right side to take pictures of the seaside. 2️⃣ After leaving the station, there is a blue house bus stop on the right, go to platform 4 to take bus number 9 to Tengu Mountain, every 30 minutes, 240 yen per person. 3-4 people are recommended to take a taxi directly, about 1200 yen. 3️⃣ After arriving, go straight to the cable car ticket office, round trip 1600 yen per person, who knows if it will suddenly stop operating. There are various souvenirs of Tengu masks 👺 at the top of the mountain, overlooking the entire Otaru from the top of the mountain is very good looking, taking pictures is very productive. I missed it perfectly this time , I can only take a few shots from the bottom of the mountain. Welcome to like, collect, and follow. Chenchen will update several Sapporo guides and shares in the near future, otherwise there will be no fans.

#2024wish In January, I embarked on an unforgettable journey to Tenguyama Observation Deck and Mt. Tengu Summit. The Observation Deck, perched high above with panoramic views of nature's beauty, offered a breathtaking spectacle of snow-covered landscapes. As I ascended Mt. Tengu, the serenity intensified, surrounded by ancient forests and pristine snowfields. The summit greeted me with a sense of accomplishment, and the crisp mountain air invigorated my spirit. The experience was a harmonious blend of tranquility and awe-inspiring vistas. In 2024, I wish to go there again, chasing the same sense of wonder and embracing the timeless allure of Tenguyama and Mt. Tengu.

#2024wish In January 2015, I embarked on an unforgettable trip to Otaru Tenguyama, a picturesque ski resort nestled in Hokkaido's snow-covered landscape. The enchanting Otaru Tenguyama Ropeway carried me to the summit, offering panoramic views of snow-clad mountains and the serene Sea of Japan. Eager to embrace the winter spirit, I enrolled in a basic skiing course. The crisp air, powdery snow, and the thrill of gliding down the gentle slopes made it an exhilarating experience. The quaint charm of Otaru town added a touch of magic to the journey. As memories of that snowy escapade linger, I find myself yearning for a return. In 2024, I wish to go there again, reliving the joyous moments etched in the winter wonderland of Otaru Tenguyama.

Hokkaido's romance still intoxicates people I left 4 days for Hokkaido Wandering in Sapporo and Otaru The itinerary is not tiring, but the beautiful scenery is all in sight Snow mountains, night scenes, coastlines, canals About Sapporo Sapporo is the administrative, transportation, and economic center of Hokkaido. The airport, subway, tram, shopping mall, and neighborhood are all available. Generally, people come from all over the place to It takes about 45 minutes from the airport to the city center by subway (5.60 yuan) Sapporo attractions White Lover Park The theme park for making white lovers is not big, there will be robot performances on the wall at a fixed point, and the white ice cream is a must-eat! The price inside is a little bit cheaper than outside. Tanuki Koji Shopping Street Hokkaido's oldest arcade shopping street, with chain restaurants and snack foods, as well as clothing department stores, you can also buy a lot of souvenir fridge magnets, etc. About Otaru The main filming location of the movie 'Love Letter' There is a beautiful snow scene along the coastal railway-Chaoli Station A day trip is actually enough to check in the main attractions You must go to Tengu Mountain! Otaru one-day tour guide: Buy JR (train) directly from Sapporo Station to Otaru, there are many shifts, and the whole journey is less than 1 hour, and you can also swipe the traffic card. Route: 1. Morning: Take the JR from Sapporo Station-Chaoli Station (see the sea + take pictures) 2. Noon: Get off at Otaru-Walk to Otaru Canal (Music Box Museum/Glass Pavilion/Matcha Ice Cream/Seafood Covered Rice, there are many desserts and food on this road) 3. Afternoon: Otaru Station——Bus to Tengu Mountain——Take pictures on the mountain——Coffee at the observatory 4. Evening: Take night view photos at the observatory (you must wait for the night view before going down the mountain, the night view here is worth tens of millions, although it is very cold, but it is super worth) Some people live in Otaru, we directly take the JR back to Sapporo city, and then go to eat a bowl of hot soup curry The relationship and distance between Sapporo and Otaru are a bit similar to Hangzhou and Shaoxing, very close and convenient. The attractions are also concentrated, and a day trip is just right. Sapporo is more lively and convenient, and Otaru has fewer people and more flavor
