Let's start your beautiful journey today 8:00 Sapporo Station North Exit Group Bus Stop Asahiyama Zoo Admission fee included (about 120 minutes, including free lunch time) Asahiyama Zoo, located in Asahikawa City, Hokkaido, is the northernmost zoo in Japan and the zoo with the most visitors in Japan. Hokkaido Net Celeb Christmas Tree (about 15 minutes) Christmas Tree Tree Yule Tree is a spruce tree located on a gentle hillside in Biei Town, southeast of Asahikawa City. There are various theories about the origin of the name, such as that the shape of the tree resembles a Christmas tree or that the tip of the tree resembles a Christmas tree. The tree represents the shape of a star, that is, the name is related to a Christmas tree without decorations. This Christmas tree, which is beautiful day and night regardless of the season, is one of the most popular trees in Biei. ★ When taking photos, please "step back" and stand on the asphalt road to take a look. You can capture the blue sky, white clouds, and fields in the frame. ★ When tourists enter farmland to take photos, please "call out" and stop them, saying "Excuse me, please do not enter farmland." Biei Blue Pond (about 30 minutes) Located on the left bank of the Biei River in Hokkaido, it was formed by a dam built to hold back volcanic magma. It was named after the blue reflection of the pond's water when sunlight hits it. Shirakushi Falls (about 20 minutes) Shirakane Falls in Furano City, Hokkaido, is a waterfall with a drop of 30 meters and an altitude of 600 meters in the Shirogane Onsen area of Biei Town. It was named "Shiratsu Falls" because the water flows like a white beard from the gaps in the rocks. Return to Sapporo city and end your day trip happily! The return time is only a guideline, and you may return earlier depending on the smooth itinerary and road conditions on the day. Arrival at the departure point: Sapporo Station North Exit Group Bus Terminal (3-chome, Kita 7-jo Nishi, Chuo-ku, Sapporo)
This zoo has become famous for its "behavioral exhibits," which create comfortable spaces for animals according to their ecology and bring out their natural behavior. You can see animals living vibrantly in various places, such as the "Penguin House" where animals can swim freely through an underwater tunnel, the "Seal House" where seals go up and down a cylindrical tank, the "Polar Bear House" where you can see them diving spectacularly into the pool, the "Orangutan House" where you can take an aerial stroll through a 17m-high tower, the "Hippo House" where you can see them swimming in the pool from directly below, the "Red-Crowned Crane House," the "Ezo Deer Forest," and the "Hokkaido Animal House," which are unique to Hokkaido zoos. In 2022, the "Ezo Brown Bear House" will open, allowing you to get up close and personal with Hokkaido's representative wild animals in an indoor enclosure modeled after Shiretoko. During the "Penguin Walk" held during the snowfall in winter, you can see the adorable penguins waddling freely around a course without fences. (The Penguin Walk is held from late December to mid-March each year, depending on the snow conditions. The Penguin Walk is scheduled to start at 11:00 a.m.)
The Blue Pond is a pond that was created by a lucky coincidence. Located near the town of Biei, the pond was created to prevent damage from mudslides from Mount Tokachi. The color of the pond varies from vibrant turquoise to emerald to cobalt blue due to impurities in the water of Shirahige Falls. Its appearance can also change depending on the season, wind, clouds, and rain. This famous pond has become Apple's desktop wallpaper used worldwide. But more importantly, it has become a spiritual place for many.
The Yule Tree is a spruce tree on the gentle hillside of Biei Town, southeast of Asahikawa City. There are various theories about the origin of the name, including that the shape of the tree resembles a Christmas tree, or that the tip of the tree resembles a Christmas tree. The tree represents the shape of a star, so the name is related to Christmas trees without decorations. This Christmas tree is beautiful day and night regardless of the season, and is one of the most popular trees in Biei. It is difficult to find because there is no information board, but many tourists visit here to take photos, so please be careful not to trespass on private property.

Asahiyama Zoo Asahiyama Zoo in Asahikawa, Hokkaido, is the northernmost zoo in Japan and the zoo with the highest number of visitors in Japan. Who said that if you go to the zoo in winter, most of the animals will hibernate in groups behind closed doors? If you visit Asahiyama Zoo in Hokkaido on a snowy day, you will surely have fun. Cute penguins walk together in the snow, clumsy little raccoons crawl overhead and make faces, curious seals play by going up and down the glass pillars, and groups of monkeys cling to each other. The biggest feature of this place is that the animals can be kept in relatively free conditions, and the ingenious exhibits allow you to observe the animals up close.

Ken & Merry Tree It was named after the 1972 Nissan Love Horizon commercial. The main characters, Ken and Mary, perform a lovely commercial in the northern lands with this tall poplar tree as a backdrop. Near Ken & Mary's Wood, there is a triangular building painted goose yellow surrounded by Christmas trees, which is very cute.
