Enjoy Hokkaido in winter! One-day bus tour from Sapporo, Hokkaido Asahiyama Zoo + Shirohige Falls + Hokkaido local gourmet buffet lunch <Departure from 1 person / Departure and return from Sapporo city>

Asahiyama Zoo Asahiyama Zoo is located in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, and is known as the northernmost zoo in Japan. It opened in 1967 and is loved by many tourists for its unique exhibition method and the opportunity to observe the animals in their natural state. The biggest feature of Asahiyama Zoo is its "behavioral exhibition", an exhibition method that focuses on bringing out the animals' natural behavior and showing it. For example, you can enjoy the lively behavior of animals up close, such as the "Penguin House" where you can see penguins swimming as if they are flying underwater, and the "Polar Bear House" where you can see polar bears diving dynamically into the water. This allows visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the animals' natural behavior and life. In winter, one of the reasons for its popularity is that you can observe the animals in the snowy scenery unique to Hokkaido. In particular, the "Penguin Walk", which is held only in winter, is an event where you can see the adorable penguins strolling along the snowy roads, and is popular not only with local residents but also with tourists.

Shirahige Waterfall Shirahige Falls is a beautiful waterfall located in Biei, Hokkaido, and is a popular spot for tourists due to its unique scenery. It is located near the Blue Pond, which spreads at the foot of the Tokachi Mountain Range, and it is often visited by tourists who visit the Blue Pond after visiting the waterfall. The name of Shirahige Falls comes from the fact that the waterfall looks like a white beard as it flows down from the cliff in a thin stream. The waterfall is known as a "spring-fed waterfall" where groundwater springs up from between the cliffs and falls in countless small streams. For this reason, the entire waterfall is made up of thin and delicate streams, and its beauty changes with the seasons. In particular, Shirahige Falls in winter shows a magnificent appearance covered in ice, creating a fantastic atmosphere. In addition, the valley into which the waterfall flows is the "Biei River", which is characterized by its highly transparent blue water, and like the Blue Pond, the vivid blue color known as "Biei Blue" stands out. The contrast with this blue water makes Shirahige Falls even more beautiful. There is also an observation deck for viewing the waterfall, which is a great vantage point from which you can see the entire waterfall. The area is also sometimes lit up at night, creating a fantastical landscape that is different from the daytime scenery.

Ningle Terrace Ningle Terrace is a tourist spot dotted with wooden cabins surrounded by beautiful nature in Furano City, Hokkaido. This area was named after the setting that "Ningle" (a small forest fairy) lives in this area, which appears in the book "Ningle" by author So Kuramoto. About 15 log houses stand in a quiet forest, and each one exhibits and sells handmade crafts and art works by different craftsmen. Inside the cabins, woodwork, glasswork, ceramics, and more are lined up, and visitors can enjoy shopping while feeling the warmth of handmade items. Ningle Terrace is especially popular at night, lit by candlelight, and has a fantastic, romantic atmosphere. Ningle Terrace is also a place where you can enjoy beautiful scenery in every season, and every time you visit, you can see a different side of it, from strolling through the lush forest in spring and summer to spending a fantastic time on the snow-covered terrace in winter.
