    Hokkaido Asahikawa-shi Kagura 7-jo 8
    One of Hokkaido's oldest foreign tree specimen cultivation locations. In 1898, to observe if foreign species of trees could be grown in Hokkaido, they began cultivating nearly 30 different types of foreign tree including European Red Pine and the eastern white pine. There are now nearly 6000 trees covering 50 species covering the 18-hectare plot and the area is popular with citizens as a place for forest therapy or taking a stroll. It was also the setting for late novelist Miura Ayako's famous work, Freezing Point. At the entrance of the park is the Miura Ayako Literature Museum which displays the works and mementos of the author. As you enter the forest to take in nature and escape the hustle of everyday life you might get to see wild birds or small animals including the Hokkaido squirrel.

    Hokkaido Asahikawa-shi Higashiyama

    場所は旭川北インターから近いです。カタクリの名所をいくつか見てきましたが、ここ男山自然公園は辺り一面がカタクリで、その数の多さに驚きました。行った日は薄曇りでしたが、晴れていればカタクリと大雪山の写真がきれいに撮れると思います。

    Hokkaido Kamikawagunshimokawachou Nishimachi 100

    桜ヶ丘公園に入って右手にある建物です。ガーデニング・フォレスト フレペが正式な名前です。外観も中も木のぬくもりを存分に発揮して、来た者を癒してくれる場所です。奥にあるストーブは7月末まで利用していたそうですが、あるだけで暖かみを感じ、休憩だけでは申し訳ないほど、上品なくつろぎ場です。多目的スペースとして利用できるように音響効果も施しているそうです。

Hokkaido Areas

around-area-map

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.
