Among them, the one that stands out is the "Nikka Large Signboard". The Uncle Nikka depicted on this sign is named King of Blenders and is modeled after Sir W.P. Raleigh, a master whisky blend in 19th-century England. The signboard was installed in 1969 in conjunction with the construction of the Susukino Building in preparation for the Sapporo Winter Olympics. In fact, it was renovated in 1986, 2002, and 2013, and is now in its fourth generation. Half a century has passed, but it is still gaining popularity as a tourist spot representing Sapporo. Cafes, bars, and taverns are lined up, and the atmosphere that makes you feel good just by walking is unique to Susukino! If you come to Sapporo, be sure to go to the gourmet city of Susukino.

Was going to go fishing. The fish didn't catch, but a big crab was caught.

Well, this is a photo I took at the Kaiyukan I went to last month. There were fish, birds, and otters, and it was fun. Just looking at it was soothing. I went there on a weekday, but there were a lot of people, I thought it was a good thing ... The jellyfish part was especially good. I became nothing. I couldn't take many pictures of otters due to bad timing, but I was able to take pictures of other fish, dolphins, sea lions, etc. If you go when there are no people, please go at night. It was good that there were not many people.

HELLO TO EVERYONE WHO WATCHES COOL JAPAN VIDEOS! This is Moseushi Town, Hokkaido. Hokkaido Uryu DistrictMoseushi Town is located almost in the center of Hokkaido and is blessed with clean water from the Ishikari River system, and is a town that has prospered in rice cultivation. It is the third smallest town in Hokkaido by area, but it is full of various charms. This will be my first posting, so I will introduce Moseushi Town and provide information on popular tourist spots and specialties! The climate (weather) of Moseushi Town in Hokkaido is an inland climate, so it can be about 30 degrees Celsius in summer and minus 20 degrees Celsius or less in winter. The snow melts around April in an average year. Please refer to it as a measure to protect yourself from the cold when traveling. Hokkaido's Moseushi Town has a wide range of delicious gourmet dishes made with local ingredients. Next, we will deliver information on special products! The best specialty of Moseushi Town in Hokkaido is delicious rice! The "secret of its deliciousness" lies in the method of rice cultivation. In Moseushi Town, "apple mint", a type of herb, is planted on the furrow path of the rice field. Since the insect repellent effect of herbs protects rice ears from pests, the use of pesticides is minimized, and low-pesticide rice cultivation can be realized. "Kitasaika" is one of the rice made by such low-pesticide rice cultivation. "Premium Kitasaika", which is vacuum-packed "Nanatsuboshi" (Hokkaido brand rice) with a protein value of 6.8% or less, which is only 30% of the total harvest produced in Moseushi Town, is also recommended! In addition, apple mint is harvested and used as an ingredient in specialty products such as "From the Village of Herbs (herbal liqueur)" and "100% natural herbal water". The special products introduced are also delivered as a thank you gift for the Furusato Nozei tax payment in Moseushi Town, Hokkaido. We offer a variety of thank-you gifts such as a large raw dorayaki "Deka Raw" from a long-established Japanese confectionery store in Moseushi Town and "258 pickled ingredients without additives", so please check the Furusato Nozei Tax Payment site! Here are some of the most popular sightseeing spots in Moseushi Town, Hokkaido! ●Moseushi Town Water Park Urara It is a park with various playground equipment located about a 15-minute walk from Moseushi Station. The free waterslide is fun even for the little ones! Newly established in 2022 (Reiwa 4), the colorful complex playground equipment "Curling Combination" is also recommended. In the park, there is also a park golf course (charged), basketball three-on-three courts (free), and a barbecue corner (reservation required), so you can enjoy sports and the outdoors! In addition, there is also an indoor curling hall "Moseushi Town Curling Hall" (charged) in the park! In the 1980s, Moseushi Town started the activities of the Moseushi Curling Association, and in 2003, the long-awaited dedicated facility "Moseushi Town Curling Hall" was completed. It can be used as a playground facility in the summer from May to September, and as an indoor curling hall from November to March. Brushes, shoes, sliders, and other equipment are available for rent, so please feel free to experience them! Since the 4th year of 2022 (Reiwa 4), Japan's top-level women's curling team "FORTIUS" has been appointed as a cheering ambassador for Moseushi Town, and has been enlivening curling in the town. ●Moseushi Onsen Peperu Located right next to Moseushi Town Water Park Urara, "Moseushi Onsen Peperu" is a facility where you can enjoy pure natural hot springs that opened in 1993. Currently, the hot spring is closed in preparation for the reopening, but it is scheduled to reopen around the end of April 2024. Please come and visit us when it reopens!
