    The Hakodate Community Design Center is located in a building that was originally constructed in 1923 to serve as the Hakodate Branch of the Maruiimai clothing chain; the renovated building reopened as the Hakodate Community Design Center in April 2007.

The Center is around one minute’s walk from the Jujigai streetcar stop, and immediately adjacent to the Jujigai bus stop.

    函館山ロープウェイの山麓駅から南部坂を下って行くと市電通りに面して立っていました。やや円形のレトロな建築物で、外観を眺めるだけでも十分と云えそうでした。後日、館内を訪問してみたところ観光客向けの施設を兼ねておりパンフレット類も設置されていました。

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.
