One of the best things about Hokkaido’s eclectic dining scene is amazing seafood. Hachikyo (which has five branches spread across Sapporo) features delicious seasonal seafood sourced from fishing ports all over the island. The main shop in Chuo Ward has a rustic wooden interior, designed in the style of a banya (a communal fishermen’s lodging). The decor also resembles seafaring life: buoyancy rings, traditional wave art, fishing lights, and tairyo-bata banners (fishermen’s flags raised when a ship is returning to port with the day’s catch) hang from the walls. Hachikyo is famous for its ganso tsukko meshi, a rice bowl topped with salmon roe till overflowing, while staff members further enliven the atmosphere by chanting at your table. It’s one of Hokkaido’s most unique dining experiences.

The Hill of the Buddha (頭大仏) is a Buddhist shrine at Makomanai Takino Cemetery in the outskirts of Sapporo on Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido. Designed by architect Tadao Ando, the stunning shrine opened in December 2015.
The sculpted stone Buddha statue called Atama Daibutsu, is encircled by a rotunda situated on a gently sloping artificial hill within the land belonging to the cemetery. It is 13.5-metre tall and weighs 1500 tonnes. When approaching it from afar, the lone head of the Buddha peeking from within the rotunda conveys a solemn, serene impression of the Buddha.

Outside Makomanai station take the Chuo bus no. 106 or Chuo bus no. 108 to get to Takino Cemetery from where it is a short walk to the Buddha. The bus ride costs 380 Yen

Odori Park is an oasis with 92 types of trees including lilacs and elm stands located in the middle of a business district. On its lawns and around its fountains, one can find locals and tourists alike relaxing. Odori Park is called a park, but it’s really a street. In 1871, a firebreak, which cuts central Sapporo into is northern and southern parts, was built. The firebreak became Shiribeshi Dori, which was renamed Odori. Odori Park, which is usually a very calm and relaxed space, is also used for many of Hokkaido’s best-known seasonal events, such as the Snow Festival in the winter, Lilac Festival in the spring, YOSAKOI Soran Festival and beer garden in the summer, and Autumn Festival, which brings together various Hokkaido cuisines, in the fall.
