Hokkaido (北海道, Hokkaidō, literally "Northern Sea Circuit") (Japanese: [hokkaꜜidoː] ( listen)), formerly known as Ezo, Yezo, Yeso, or Yesso, is the second largest island of Japan, and the largest and northernmost prefecture. The Tsugaru Strait separates Hokkaido from Honshu. The two islands are connected by the undersea railway Seikan Tunnel. The largest city on Hokkaido is its capital, Sapporo, which is also its only ordinance-designated city. About 43 km north of Hokkaido lies Sakhalin Island, Russia, whereas to its east and north-east are the disputed Kuril Islands.

We left Sapporo around 8:00, drove past Otaru, and arrived at Nioka Whiskey Yoichi Distillery, which was another story. And then we continued to drive along beautiful, sometimes even breathtaking, seashores around the peninsula, which was disturbed with some long tunnels, though. We had lunch at Fuji Zushi, continued on driving to Shimamu Beach, which had another story to tell, and then to Cape Kamui. After the cape, we continued to drive along the Sea of Japan. When we got to Michi-no-eki Osukoi Kamoenai, it was tea time. That was the end of the breathtaking beauty of the strangely shaped rocks and the sea water of Shakotan blue. We were driving back to Sapporo, and, when we reached Otaru, it was almost supper time. We decided to drop on at Otaru, did some shopping and had supper at a branch shop of Fuji Zushi (again!). We enjoyed a full day trip in Hokkaido, although we had to drive in dusk through unfamiliar Sapporo streets.

During the winter, snowy around, it is so great to deep to feet in natural hot water walking along the hot stream, feeling your power recovered while enjoying breath taking view of snow trees and paths

Easy to get to on the bus, this is a must see if you are in Abishiri. We were expecting the museum to focus exclusively on the Ainu, but it covers so much more than that with information about all of the northern peoples in the polar regions. The audio guide is one of the best we've used - just enough information to keep you engaged and yet covers all the displays admirably. Absolutely fantastic.

9. Mt. Usu

Reviewed By Brissy2 - Hervey Bay, Australia
We visited Mt Usu via the Usuzan Ropeway. To get up to the Usu Crater Basin Observation Deck you need to walk up (about 300m) of very steep steps – actually 136 steps in total. Once at the top, you can then go on various trails. Even from the Observation Deck you can actually see the volcanic steam/smoke oozing out of the central crater. Mt Usu erupted 4 times in the 20th century – the last being in 2000 - so it really is a sleeping volcano.
