Hokkaido Kamikawagunkamikawachou Sakaemachi 40

The Hokkaido Ice Pavilion in Kamikawa, Hokkaido, at the foot of Mt. Daisetsuzan, is the world’s first and best place to experience the extreme cold. The temperature inside the ice hall is kept at -20°C which creates a completely 360° world of ice. You can experience the extreme cold of -41°C and the ‘diamond dust’ effect (where the moisture in the air is frozen) and you can also have your photo taken with the sea angel, Clione. The giant icicles, which have been 25 years in the making, are also a must-see.

Hokkaido Areas

Not just a prefecture but an island of its own, Hokkaido is the most northerly prefecture and island of the Japanese archipelago. Arriving in Hokkaido, which is rural and bursting with breathtaking nature, means entering a world where vast national parks, towering mountains, and natural hot springs can be found at every turn. Come December, these natural splendors freeze over and morph into a winter wonderland.
