Cities — Hokkaido

Hokkaido's vibrant capital famous for its snow festival, beer museum, and as a foodie paradise with fresh seafood and ramen.

Historic port city with spectacular night views from Mount Hakodate, morning markets, and well-preserved Western-style buildings.

Hokkaido's second largest city, famous for its winter festival, ramen village, and as gateway to Daisetsuzan National Park.

Wakkanai, the northernmost city in Japan, sits on the edge of Hokkaido facing the windswept Sōya Strait and the distant outline of Russia’s Sakhalin Island. Known for dramatic coastal scenery, sea fogs, grassy capes, and wildlife-rich wetlands, Wakkanai offers a quiet and atmospheric travel experience far from the country’s usual routes.
