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.

This colossal sports center is a year-round arena that seats forty thousand; concerts and exhibitions are also held here.
The Sappora Dome was built in 2001. It has a capacity of around 40,000 people. Following Dr Clarke, who said "Boys, be ambitious," is it is a major sporting facility that can function even when it is cold outside. It is home ground for two major sporting teams, the Nippon Ham Fighters (baseball) and Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo (Association football- -- soccer). It is a planned venue for soccer in the 2021 Olympics.
