Description

Explore the Historical Village of Hokkaido on a guided tour. Learn about the island’s pioneering history and see original buildings from the frontier period.
Step back in time and explore the Historical Village of Hokkaido, an open-air museum that brings the island’s pioneering past to life. Meet your guide at Sapporo Station or directly at the village, and embark on a journey through Hokkaido’s frontier days.

Wander through a recreated “Japanese Western” townscape, where original buildings from the frontier period stand side by side. See government offices, merchant shops, horse-drawn railways, and simple log huts built by the first settlers.

Learn about the sweeping changes of the Meiji Restoration and the rapid incorporation of Hokkaido into modern Japan. Hear stories of the Ainu people, who lived in harmony with nature before the arrival of settlers, and reflect on the profound impact of this era of change.

Immerse yourself in the unique culture, landscape, and way of life that define Hokkaido today, and gain a deeper understanding of Japan’s frontier spirit.
