202 1 Japan winter travel guide and winter travel recommendations for Japan

Japan has a very rich historical and cultural heritage, and the natural environment protection here is also quite in place, which can meet the needs of different tourists. Many friends are crazy about Japan in winter. There are not only snow-capped mountains here, but also many ice and sea fantasy worlds and sports. Here, I recommend a detailed strategy for everyone.

For example, Hokkaido and Niigata Prefecture have many places suitable for Japanese winter entertainment activities, and you can also experience various entertainment projects.

Some tourists to Japan even come to experience Japanese winter sports.

But because the snowfall in Japan is different, there is no project you want to go to.

So I personally introduce you to winter sports that can be experienced all over Japan. Walking in the snow with snowshoes, walking on flowing ice, riding snowmobiles, skating, skiing, snowboarding and other winter sports.

1. Walking in the snow with snowshoes. Walking in the snow with snowshoes means walking in the snow with special shoes. Even if you step on the soft snow, it will not harden the snow. Walking in the snow-capped mountains, you can see the scenery that you can't usually see in this silver world.

Cheshan Plateau Ski Resort in Nagano Prefecture

Hundreds of famous mountains in Japan (works by Japanese mountaineer and writer Haruhiko Kuroda). Among them, one of the Japanese archipelago 100 mountains was selected. At the top of Wufeng Mountain, that is, Cheshan Plateau Ski Resort, you can also walk in snowshoes.

The scenery is unobstructed. While walking, enjoy the beautiful scenery connecting the majestic southern alps and the Northern Alps, and experience the magnificence of nature for yourself.

2. Walking on the flowing ice in Hokkaido

Walking on flowing ice, which has never been experienced in daily life, is a very popular sport in Hokkaido. With the arrival of winter, flowing ice blocks formed in the Sea of Okhotsk and flooded Hokkaido. In the world of ice under my feet, I met a family of Hai Ruo snails swimming gently under the ice and really felt the "flowing ice".

Because the shoes are attached with special dry clothes, you can take part as long as you wear ordinary clothes when you play. Clothes are buoyant, so people who can't swim don't have to worry. The tour guide will explain to you in detail what to do.

Don't worry about the way the suit is put on and off and the way of entertainment. Do you want to experience the unique and precious ice walk in winter?

3. Snowmobile A snowmobile is a motorcycle with an engine. Just like driving a motorcycle, you can drive in the snow. If you drive in a prescribed place, you can easily experience it without a driver's license. Drive the throttle and weight to move and conquer the snow-capped mountains.

Gunma county aquatic plateau ski resort

Gunma County's "Water Plateau Ski Resort" can drive snowmobiles in the vast snow. On the snowy plateau, follow the exciting coach around and enjoy the scenery along the way.

The project of snowmobiles dragging boats is called "drifting", which can be experienced in the water plateau resort. Exciting boat, riding with family is its charm.

4, skating put on skates, sports skating on the skating rink is a synchronized movement with skiing. Figure skating with expressive force and jumping skills in the Olympic Games has speed skating, but it is also fun to leave the process to the body to skate slowly in circles.

Sakas Akasaka, Tokyo

As the largest outdoor skating rink in Tokyo, "whiteSacas" opened in Akasaka Sacas on 20 16. Skating under neon lights, you can feel the endless beautiful fantasy brought by romantic atmosphere.

Like skateboarding, snowboarding with feet fixed on a single board and skiing along an inclined plane is also a very popular sport in the world. It is also very popular in Japan and can be experienced in various ski resorts.

Galatangze Ski Resort in Niigata Prefecture

In Japan, basically all ski resorts can experience snowboarding, but the most recommended one is the "Galatangze Ski Resort" which can go directly to the Shinkansen. Ski resorts have 17 ways to choose from, and beginners to skilled people can enjoy them happily. Skiing and snowboarding can be divided into individual and group courses in English. Be sure to take classes and experience a higher level! There will be many people on weekends, so it will be more reassuring to make an appointment in advance.

6. Skiing is a representative sport in winter. Skiing is absolutely not to be missed. There are so many ski resorts to experience that I don't know which one to choose.

NORN Water Ski Resort in Gunma County

In this small series, I recommend the "Nuon Water Ski Resort" in Gunma County.

It takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to take the Shinkansen from Tokyo. The ski resort here has slopes, which is especially suitable for people above the intermediate level.

Recommend Hokkaido

Although Hokkaido, located in the northernmost part of Japan, is very cold in winter, as a pseudo-"Taoist" who has lived in Hokkaido, I still recommend Minasan to visit Hokkaido in winter.

Hokkaido is different from Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, and there are relatively few tourists, so you should be able to travel relatively comfortably here.

Although Hokkaido is one of the small Japanese islands, in contrast, the area of Hokkaido Island is not small (accounting for 22% of Japan's total land).

In terms of transportation, Hokkaido basically only has JR (railway) and public transportation, and there are few flights. Without a detailed itinerary, it is difficult to visit the whole island at one time.

Therefore, it is best to decide which one to bring according to your own preferences before going out.

Try to suggest using Google.

Map (besides finding the way, booking a hotel and finding food are also very reliable)

Hokkaido is divided into three regions: Daoyang, Daobei, Daonan and Daodong.

Let's briefly list the highlights of each region!

1- Daoyang area: Sapporo (Datong Park, Timetable, Trams), Otaru (Canal), major ski resorts (Shoudao Mountain, Gil Valley, etc.). ).

2- Daobei area: Asahikawa (Asahikawa Zoo), Futian Lavender Field, Meiying (Lanchi) and Neichi (the northernmost part of Japan).

3- Daonan area: Hakodate (western architecture, seafood market, trams), Toyako, Dengbie (hot springs, hell valley, bear ranch).

4- Daodong area: Kushiro (wetland), Ahan (hot spring, Ainu folk village), Zhoumo Lake, Netwalk (drifting ice, prison), Zhichuang Peninsula (virgin forest, mountains, drifting ice).
