Kanamori Red Brick Warehouse is the best shopping place in Hakodate, and it has a very literary and youthful atmosphere. Beautiful views of the canal and its old red brick architectural features. The lighting at night makes for a great photo spot. There are as many as 100 shops, restaurants, etc. inside, which is very easy to browse.

When walking in the park, you can follow the hiking trails provided by the park. The scenery along the way is particularly beautiful. When you walk to a high place, you can see the scenery very far away with very high visibility.

The Hakodate Tropical Botanical Garden is located in Yunokawa, a famous hot spring resort. Tropical plants are quite rare in Hokkaido, after all, it is in the north. But if you are a tourist, going to the north to see tropical plants is a matter of whether you have time or not. After all, you can go to Xishuangbanna, Thailand, and Singapore. For non-local tourists, the biggest feature of this botanical garden is that it raises Japanese macaques that take a hot spring bath. Those who have not seen it can come and see it. Of course, this monkey project is also artificial. If you want to see it naturally, you have to go to Noboribetsu Jigokudani.

Highly recommend everyone to visit Mount Hakodate Million Night View🤍
It's one of the world's top three night views 🌃 It's really beautiful!
You can take mains or bus to Foothill Station
Then walk up and take the cable car up to the top of the hill
The cable car only runs every 10 minutes
If you are in a hurry, you have to watch the screen have written what time the next class is
Cable car ride guide!
Remember to sit on the right side on the way out 👉🏻 sit on the left side on the return trip 👈🏻
Then you will definitely get a beautiful view ✌🏻
You need to buy an entrance ticket to reach the summit
If you have IC electronic payment method recommend you to use the self-service machine!
There are many fewer people queuing up than buying tickets manually!
Also remind everyone to leave a ticket
Because entering and exiting the gate requires scanning the QR code again
It will be very troublesome if you lose it!

It is really great to be able to see the sea at a glance on the steep slope of Hakodate. Mt. Hakodate stands around the city, as if guarding this exotic city. You can take a closer look at Hachimanzaka.
