20 17 6-day tour of Hokkaido

Hokkaido is located in the north of Japan. It snows all the year round, and there are very good ice and snow elements. You can get closer to nature here, and Hokkaido's food is also quite rich. You can choose food to taste according to your own taste. The following is a 6-day tour of Hokkaido on 20 17.

Schedule

Sapporo 6-day flight, starting from Sapporo, Hokkaido has many places to play. In the middle of winter, we should take the classic route to the south and take a trip to the snowy areas in the north (exaggerated). ), or finding a resort to ski and soak in hot springs is a good choice. Although I have been to Hakodate at the southern tip of Hokkaido before (in spring), this time I took a classic trip to Daonan in order to feel the big swamp lake in winter (although it is a small scenic spot and close to Hakodate at the southern tip of Hokkaido, which is the biggest purpose of my trip). As follows:

D 1, Sapporo, new chitose airport (Beaver Road, Hokkaido Prefecture), who lives in Sapporo.

D2 Sapporo (Hokkaido University), Asahi Zoo, lives in Sapporo.

D3 Otaru lives in Toyako.

D4 Hakodate Damahu Park, living in Toyako.

D5 Sapporo (Bell Tower, Hokkaido Shrine, White Lover Factory) lives in Sapporo.

D6 Sapporo (Nakajima Park), new chitose airport.

If you haven't been to Hokkaido before, I suggest staying in Hakodate for one day and one night to experience the night view of Hakodate Mountain (as crowded as the domestic Golden Week scenic spot). If time is limited, you can live in Toyako and Asahikawa (it takes a day to watch penguins in the zoo). There is also a classic punch point on the south road leading to Hell Valley. This time, I gave up. In a word, traveling is a matter of free choice according to one's own time and preferences.

traffic

Hainan Airlines' flight from Hangzhou to Sapporo (fly it), and the round-trip price including 1500 yuan in the ice and snow season is quite good.

Japan's transportation mainly depends on the Hokkaido Railway Pass, which costs 22,000 yen. It is worth mentioning that since last year, tickets for designated seats can be reserved in advance on JR-EAST official website, and then tickets can be directly collected free of charge after travel tickets are processed at the airport. Japanese railways are divided into designated seats and free seats, of which each person has a designated seat by ticket, and free seats are available on a first-come-first-served basis. In the past, tickets for designated seats could only be drawn with travel tickets after arriving in Japan, and there may be no tickets on popular routes. Of course, free seats can go up and down at will. ) Sapporo-Hakodate route, it is recommended to reserve designated seats in advance, because it is popular and time is not short, and it will be more depressing without seats. I booked all the tickets at that time. If I have this intention, I will plan my trip and book the tickets. With a tourist pass, even if you change your itinerary temporarily, you can still go to the foreigner service office of the railway station to change to a designated seat or go directly to a free seat, which is very convenient. Of course, remember to return the tickets booked before to the staff, who can resell them.

Hokkaido Railway Travel Ticket official website: /railpass/rail0 1.html (This ticket can be purchased directly at the Foreign Visitors Service Office on the 1 floor of the airport with a passport).

JR-EAST official website: 3358 www.jreast.co.jp/sc/ (The website reserves designated seats, and you can pick up the tickets at the airport after buying the tour tickets, so you can find the same staff at will. Official website has detailed explanations in Chinese. The only thing you need to pay attention to is that the station names are all in English. For example, Sapporo is Sapporo and Hakodate is Hakodate. If you don't know the English name of a station, please search for it yourself. )

Travel vouchers can handle most of the traffic in this trip. If the traffic is in the city, Sapporo is a subway tram, and Hakodate mainly relies on trams. The tram pays attention to getting on and off the bus, and the small bottle mainly looks at the legs. There is also the connection between Toyako Railway Station and Toyako Hot Springs. It is recommended to take the bus (you can check bus timetable in http://donanbus.co.jp/kougai/,,, and arrange the arrival time and departure time of the train reasonably in combination with bus timetable. The itinerary on the travel bag was written wrong when I went there. I wonder if there is any update now. If you choose to take a taxi, the taxi price in Japan is really touching (I once took a taxi for 600 yuan)

Clothes and other daily necessities

It's not that cold. Maybe I didn't meet it when it was cold. Upper body underwear fleece/sweater thick coat (generally ok, not particularly thick. ), lower body autumn pants and ordinary pants are ok. It's best to have non-slip and waterproof shoes, because it's all ice and snow. Wear a hat, especially sunglasses. When the snow is all white, you are really snow blind.

I'm not very picky about food. There is plenty of food on the first floor of new chitose airport. You can try it before landing (the food in Japanese airports and railway stations is the same as that in urban areas). JR-TOWER near Sapporo Railway Station has the famous Lamian Noodles, and there are many delicious foods in the Boye area in the city center (so-called Hokkaido kabukicho, do you know). Otsuka suggested opening your stomach to eat, the famous Liu Hua Pavilion. If you are interested in eating, it is recommended to do some homework online in advance.

If you want to bring some snacks back to share, I suggest going to the third floor of new chitose airport. Basically everything. Please note that some things can't pass the security check and have to be checked. Remember to buy it before security check. After the security check, there is no shop.

prescribe a diet

This trip is almost like buying a plane ticket and leaving (I booked a plane ticket for February 1 1 and left on February 15). I found it expensive to book temporary accommodation in the ice and snow season (and I also caught up with the Asian Winter Games innocently). The average booking result for 3 nights in Sapporo and 2 nights in Toyako is 1000 RMB per night. The conditions are good (because the cheap ones are gone). Especially the Grand Toya Hotel, although a little old, has a first-line lake view and a strong showa style. Breakfast and dinner are very rich (pictured at the back), and there are hot springs before and after meals, which is very comfortable.

stay

I didn't buy anything except snacks, but Sapporo should have everything. Domestic banks don't need to change too much yen, and basically support credit cards (UnionPay may not work in some places, it is better to have another MasterCard, VISA or JCB), and many places also support Alipay and WeChat payment.

D 1 Sapporo new chitose airport

Take off in the morning and land in new chitose airport around noon (HNA's food is not praised). Sapporo is not as good as several big cities in Honshu, Japan, but new chitose airport is the third largest airport in Japan because of its strong tourism (the first and second places are dissatisfied by Tokyo). New chitose airport is the busiest airport I have ever been to. Besides a large number of restaurants and shops, there are even amusement parks, cinemas and hot springs. The domestic 3F has Lamian Noodles Dojo in Hokkaido (recommended by Mei Guangxuan), and the Chinese and foreign 3F has a smile road, surrounded by Doraemon and Royce chocolate factory, which is very suitable for children.

The foreigner service center on the first floor can take the airport line to Sapporo directly after buying the tour ticket, which takes about 30 minutes.

Sapporo should be a compulsory planning city. The roads in the main city are horizontal and vertical, and the names are simple and rude. With Datong Park as the center, each road is called North 1 East 3, or South 2 West 4 and so on. It is easy to find.

The two most popular places in Sapporo are near the station and Boye (or Shinjuku, Hokkaido). These two places, one north and one south, are connected by Datong Park, and there is a long connecting passage underground. The main businesses and hotels in Sapporo can enter directly from the ground through this passage, which is very convenient in snowy days. Our hotel is near the old hall in Hokkaido. Let's go for a walk after supper.

There are many ancient halls in Hokkaido, and there are western-style buildings in Hokkaido.

In the evening, I go for a walk in the wilderness. I want to eat the famous Genghis Khan barbecue, but there are many people waiting in line. Don't try it easily without perseverance at this temperature. Later, I found a curry rice at random, which was quite good. Beaver Road Commercial Street is also near Boye, full of buyers bought by buy buy who was killed in China.

Asakawa D2

Before going to Asahikawa, I visited Hokkaido University near the station. If there is no snow on the main road in downtown Sapporo, the snow on the university campus will leave a very deep impression on people. Southerners who have never seen such heavy snow were dumbfounded for an instant, and even a couple of wedding photos wore tulle in the cold wind, as if they were from China.

Winter limited! Teohotsk

Asahikawa Zoo is a very close zoo. All animals can be observed at close range, which is very sweet. It is worthwhile to walk so far to see the zoo. The trump card program of Asahikawa Zoo is Penguin Walking (selling cute). A group of enterprises are wobbling outside, and tourists can observe at a distance of 0 on both sides. Two games a day in winter, and only one game at other times. Pay attention to check the time in official website so as not to miss it.

3 DAY3 otaru Toyako

It takes about 40 minutes to get to Otaru by Sapporo train. There are too many trains, almost everywhere.

Otaru is a small town with a sense of history, where the film Love Letter was filmed. But when we arrived, it began to snow, and it was cloudy. It's not beautiful at all But Xiao Zun is much more delicious, so it doesn't matter.

Walk along the canal to the intersection of fairy tales, where Letao, Liu Hua Pavilion and the seventh floor of the North are all gathered. On the second floor of Letao, you can sit down and order a set meal of black tea and cheese. Letao's cheesecake, Liuhuating's grape sandwich biscuits, Beiguolou's puffs and Hami melon jelly (made in Xizhang, do you play boat girl) are all their classic products. Don't miss them when passing by.

Letaode cheesecake

Puffs in the Northland Building have a big appetite.

I tasted steamed sushi at noon. In Otaru, it is a famous sushi restaurant. It's almost three stores away. Queuing is a bit exaggerated.

Sushi feast

Another specialty of Otaru is saltpeter (glass) products. There are many saltpeter shops (there are three branches on the road). There are many kinds of saltpeter products here, most of which are western-style and the prices are very touching.

After returning to Sapporo from Otaru, I rushed to Dongye non-stop, and it was already dark when I arrived at the hotel. Toya Hotel gives people a strong sense of Showa Times (old), and the sumptuous dinner given by the waiter after Ci is really a surprise. I suggest you choose half board, including breakfast and dinner. If you want to book in a hot spring hotel or other platforms in Japan, you can have a better experience. After dinner, I went to a hot spring and fell asleep.

A hearty hotel dinner.

Educational toys were also provided in the room, and I spelled out all the patterns.

D4 Dazhao Park Hakodate

Get up in the morning, on the main road (the only way) of Dongyehu Hot Spring Town, passing cars bring up snowflakes all over the sky. The Toyako Lake mentioned in Harvard Xueba's "Better Rush" is the feeling of the end of the world. At that moment, I also felt a little.

Dongyehu townlet

Unable to stop at Toyako, I hurried to Otuma Park. Dajian Park is a 24-kilometer-long lake formed by the eruption of Xiaosongshan in the north of Hakodate. Islands, large and small, are dotted around. It is one of the three major landscapes in New Japan. I have been there once before in spring. At that time, it was amazing to see the photos of Omnuma Park in winter. I planted grass silently in my heart and planned to come back in winter. Today, my wish has finally come true, and the weather is very intimate. When I arrived at the Everglades Park, the weather cleared up, and the blue sky that I haven't seen for a long time set off the endless white snow on the Everglades Lake. It's really beautiful. Walking along the hiking trail connecting many paths on the Everglades Lake in the lonely and thick snow makes me feel very comfortable. Not much to say, post more pictures. Show two contrast photos of Everglades Lake in spring and winter from the same angle. The original lake has turned into ice and covered with snow (Toya Lake, which is farther north than the Everglades Lake, is an ice-free lake).

Before going to Hakodate, revisit the old place. It only takes 20 minutes to get to Hakodate Park. The original intention of going to Hakodate is to go to Hakodate Mountain to overlook Hakodate in snowy days (we usually go to Hakodate Mountain to see the night scene, but our trip is to go back to Dongye in the evening). God knows the sunny day suddenly turned into a blizzard day, and the visibility was only 10 meter. Standing at the crossroads, I can't even see the other side of the road clearly. I simply went back to Dongye early, stayed comfortably in the hotel and ran around.

It is snowing in the Jinsen red brick warehouse at the foot of Hakodate Mountain, and Hakodate Mountain is looming in the distance.

Come here, where is your sister's mountain?

Storms and snowstorms.

Hakodate, whose doors are closed due to heavy snow, faces the market.

On the way back to Dongye, it cleared up again, and it was still the scenery outside the train window.

Attached is a million night view of Hakodate Mountain, which has nothing to do with this trip. I took it last time.

D5 Tokyo Sapporo

Today, I finally have time to relax during the day in Toyako. Toyako Lake is a volcanic freshwater lake with a diameter of about 10 km, and it is the northernmost ice-free lake in Japan. It is a famous hot spring resort in Japan and a variety of hot spring hotels by the lake.

Soji Shimada's history of using bamboo in the year of "Two-thirds Killing of Northern Crane" seems to be due to too many hotels in Toyako. It is difficult to find my wife's hotel.

Just walking by the lake. The lake and the mountains in the lake are covered with snow in the sun. It is comfortable to sit by the lake. After staying for half a day, I checked into the hotel company and returned to Sapporo at noon.

I experienced a Japanese train lunch on the train at noon.

Back to Sapporo for half a day, I went to Sapporo Bell Tower, Hokkaido Shrine and White Couples Factory in turn. If you can't write it, go to the picture.

D6 Sapporo Return

On the last day, I went to Nakajima Park in the south of Sapporo in the morning, packed my bags at the hotel and went to new chitose airport. The six-day trip ended successfully. Looking back now, I still feel very full and full. I really hope to experience another different Hokkaido again in another snow season on the vast and humid plain in Daodong.

Feng Ping Pavilion in Nakajima Park is another western building. There are many western-style buildings in Sapporo, Otaru and Hakodate in Hokkaido.

Nakajima Park, the island is gone, the lake is gone, and it's all snow.
