Nice to meet you all! It is a Mori Tourism Association in Hokkaido.

We will send out tourist information of Hokkaido Mori Town through COOL JAPAN VIDEOS, so thank you! !!

First of all, I would like everyone to know where Hokkaido Morimachi is located.
Mori Town is a town bordering Uchiura Bay in the southern district of Hokkaido, about one hour from Hakodate.
There is little snowfall, and the climate is warm in Hokkaido.

Nutrients transported from Mt. Komagatake flow to Uchiura Bay, and the nutrient-rich seawater grows scallops, pollock cod, hairy crabs, button shrimp, and other seafood that represents Mori Town in Hokkaido.

A popular gourmet and specialty product in Mori Town, Hokkaido, which boasts seafood, is "ikameshi".
It is made using true squid, glutinous rice, and glutinous rice from Hokkaido, and slowly soaking in the taste with a special sweet and spicy sauce.
It is very popular at product exhibitions and ekiben competitions nationwide, and many people come to enjoy authentic kameshi in the birthplace.

Of course, the recommendations of Morimachi in Hokkaido are not only gourmet.
Next, we will introduce popular sightseeing spots.
