On Sunday, October 15, we held a sightseeing training tour for the townspeople. It is held every year with the aim of experiencing the tourism resources of the Engaru Town where you live and conveying its magnificence to both inside and outside the town. The main part of this year's tour is to visit the obsidian outcrop "Akaishiyama Hachigosawa Outcrop" in the Shirataki area. This outcrop deep in the mountains snows early, so it was the last visit of the year. The participants were overwhelmed by the dynamic outcrop of Hachigozawa and moved by the beauty of the autumn leaves. I would like to continue the tour to experience the treasures of Engaru Town.

 "2023 Engaru Love Food Fair" is being held at 26 restaurants in the town from October 1st ~ 31st.  This fair is a project where you can taste original dishes using "Shirataki jaga" potatoes harvested in the Shirataki area at each store, and this year is the 14th time.  In the Shirataki area, where "Shirataki Potato" is harvested, the altitude is 400 meters, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, so Hokuhoku potatoes with a high starch value are harvested. In addition, there are only 8 farmers that produce "Shirataki potato", and it is a rare and valuable potato that is distributed almost only in the town.  While preserving the goodness of the ingredients themselves, please ♪ enjoy the "Shirataki potato cuisine" ingenious and ingenious of each store at Engaru Town.

 Today, the unveiling ceremony of "Gundam Manhole" was held at the Engaru Town Arts and Culture Exchange Plaza (Metro Plaza). Engaru Town was realized when I applied for a project that BANDAI NAMCO is doing. And Engaru Town is the birthplace of Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, who was in charge of character design for Mobile Suit Gundam, and has a big connection to Mobile Suit Gundam. This time, two items were donated: "Ganbo Iwa" and "Zaku and Roadside Station Okhotsk Activities in Engaru Forest".  "Gundam Manhole" will be on display at Metro Plaza until October 1, after which it will be installed in Metro Plaza and Okhotsk in Roadside Station Engaru Forest.  When you come to Engaru Town, please come and see it!

Nice to meet everyone who watched the COOL JAPAN VIDEOS! Okhotsk Tourism Association. We will introduce many sightseeing spots and recommended gourmet foods in the Okhotsk area, so thank you! The Okhotsk region of Hokkaido that we introduce consists of 18 municipalities: Kitami City, Abashiri City, Monbetsu City, Ozora Town, Bihoro Town, Tsubetsu Town, Shari Town, Kiyosato Town, Koshimizu Town, Kunishifu Town, Okito Town, Saroma Town, Engaru Town, Yubetsu Town, Takikami Town, Okobe Town, Nishiokube Village, and Omu Town. Okhotsk is a wonderful area where nature and history, hot springs and gastronomy are in harmony. Here are a selection of sightseeing spots that you definitely want to visit on your trip to the Okhotsk region. First, I would like to introduce the Okhotsk Chipmunks Park in Abashiri City. This park is a unique spot where you can interact with chipmunks. Cute chipmunks live in an environment rich in nature, and tourists who visit are soothed by their appearance. You can also experience feeding chipmunks in the park, which is very popular with families. Don't miss the "Ice Sea Observatory Okhotsk Tower" in Monbetsu City, which can be said to be a symbol of Okhotsk. Here there is an observation deck where you can enjoy a magnificent panorama of the Sea of Okhotsk from 24 meters above sea level. On the seabed floor with a depth of 7.5 meters, there are 11 underwater windows of various sizes and a mini aquarium where you can feed fish. During the winter months, you can also see a superb view of drift ice, and you can truly enjoy the art of nature. When sightseeing in the Okhotsk region, please enjoy Hokkaido's fresh seafood gourmet. At the Okhotsk Yusenkan in Yubetsu Town, locally caught seafood is lined up at the store on the same day, so the freshness is origami! Especially the specialties of Okhotsk - scallops, sea urchins and hairy crabs attract tourists. "Okhotsk salt ramen", which was introduced as an exquisite dish on TV programs, is also recommended as a souvenir. When visiting the Okhotsk region, you will never get bored no matter how many times you visit, because each municipality can enjoy its own tourism resources and gourmet food. Experiencing the history, culture and nature of Okhotsk is sure to make your trip memorable. We, Okhotsk Tourism Association, will disseminate information about the Okhotsk region, which consists of the aforementioned 18 municipalities. In order to make your trip to Hokkaido more fulfilling, we will propose a wide range of sightseeing information and sightseeing plans across several municipalities that only we can do. The charming scenery and excellent gourmet food of the Okhotsk region await you. Enjoy a wonderful trip in the Okhotsk region! We will continue to introduce plenty of attractive sightseeing spots in the Okhotsk area, so thank you.
