Descrição

Experience the ultimate Sapporo day tour! Visit Shiroi Koibito Park, enjoy a fresh king crab lunch at the seafood market, and marvel at the stunning Hill of the Buddha. Ch/En guide included.
Embark on a captivating full-day journey through Sapporo’s most iconic landmarks, blending rich culture, breath-taking architecture, and mouth-watering local cuisine. This meticulously planned itinerary is designed to give you a comprehensive experience of Sapporo and its scenic outskirts in a single day, accompanied by a professional, multilingual live guide.

Your adventure begins in the morning with a convenient pickup. The first stop is the serene Hokkaido Shrine, Sapporo’s spiritual heart. Walk through the towering Shinto gates, admire the massive sacred straw ropes (shimenawa), and learn the traditional Japanese customs of cleansing and praying from your guide.

Next, step into a fairytale at Shiroi Koibito Park. This charming European-style chocolate factory features beautiful flower gardens and a vintage clock tower. Enjoy a leisure stroll, snap beautiful photos, and don't forget to try their exclusive, world-famous silky chocolate soft-serve ice cream.

By lunchtime, we dive into the lively atmosphere of the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market. This is your ultimate seafood freedom. Wander through the bustling stalls filled with the freshest catches of Hokkaido. You will have free time to feast on freshly prepared king crab, giant scallops, or a premium seafood rice bowl (kaisendon) bursting with local flavors.

In the afternoon, prepare to be awed by the hidden architectural masterpiece: The Hill of the Buddha at Makomanai Takino Cemetery. Designed by the world-renowned master architect Tadao Ando, the giant Buddha statue is dramatically enveloped by a hollow, raw-concrete dome and a lavender-covered hill. This unique fusion of modern architecture and natural landscape creates a deeply moving, Zen atmosphere.

We conclude our exploration at the Takino Suzuran Hillside National Government Park. This expansive forest eco-park offers a breath of fresh air with its vast rolling green lawns, vibrant seasonal flower fields, and a picturesque European red-brick clock tower. It is the perfect peaceful setting to capture healing, oil-painting-like photographs before we smoothly head back, leaving you with unforgettable memories of Sapporo.
