Overview of your Sapporo tour

Hokkaido is located at the northernmost tip of the Japanese archipelago. It is the largest first-level administrative region in Japan, accounting for approximately 20% of Japan’s total land area. In this vast northern land, there are vast plains, graceful mountains and majestic scenery surrounded by the sea. There are also many unique natural landscapes such as flower fields, drift ice, and sea of ​​clouds. In some cities that were once pioneering areas and trading ports, you can also enjoy charming exotic atmosphere and a strong retro atmosphere. In addition, the various local dishes made with a large number of ingredients from the unique North Sea are also quite famous, and it is a tourist destination that is popular with tourists from home and abroad.
