Asahiyama Zoo is the northernmost zoo in Japan and has now become the most visited zoo. Who said that most animals go to the zoo in winter and hibernate behind closed doors? Visiting the Asahiyama Zoo in Hokkaido on a snowy day is definitely with fun. Adorable penguins take a walk in the snow, clumsy little raccoons crawl on top of their heads to make faces, curious seals play up and down in the glass column, and monkeys snuggle with each other to keep warm. The biggest feature here is that the animals can be kept in a relatively free state to the greatest extent, and visitors can observe the animals at zero distance through clever displays.(The penguin walk is expected to start from December to March, and will be arranged at 11:00 in the morning)

Located on the left bank of the Biei River in Hokkaido, it was formed by a dam built to intercept volcanic magma. In the sunlight, the pond water will reflect blue. Hence the name. Aoike was photographed by Mr. Kent Shiraishi, a National Geographic photographer. The work was acquired by Apple and became one of the default desktops of the MAC series.The blue pond water contains rich minerals and soil sandy components in volcanic ash. Under the sunlight, the pond will show various colors with the subtle changes of the environment. You never know what he will look like to you in the next moment, which is full of expectations

Furano's Ningle Terrace is a forest handmade experience workshop built by a character (to be precise, a 15cm elf living in a large forest) in the novels of Japanese writer Satoshi Kuramoto. The chalets here are small shops one by one, selling unique small commodities, which are basically handmade, such as glass handicrafts, paper handicrafts, and hand-painted handicrafts, handicrafts made of dried lavender flowers in Furano. All the small shops are small and exquisite, and everything is only available here and there will be no second one. The lighting in the evening is very romantic.
