    Otokoyama Sake Museum is a museum operated by Otokoyama, a sake brewer in Asahikawa City.

There is free tasting and the museum also sells sake from the brewery. You can also pump up the underground water at the facility to take home free of charge. The sake made with underground water sourced from the perpetual snow in the Mt. Taisetsu range has won numerous awards both in Japan and overseas.

    Its a relatively small place which can easily be covered in 30 mins max (including tasting). I can imagine that it would be more interesting when the sake is actually being made but if you go at the...

    道路沿い、大きな看板にはカトリック教会とありましたが、外観はどう見ても教会とは思えない姿です。入口といい建物といい、コンクリート建てで会社のようでした。曜日が悪かったのか夕方だったからか、入口も閉められ、中を見させてもらえる雰囲気はありませんでした。お隣の建物の方が教会らしい雰囲気があります。他の方の口コミから、試してみればよかったと思いました。

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.
