Hachimanzaka, named after the Hakodate Hachiman Shrine that once stood at the top of the hill. The beautiful cobblestone street stretches straight out to sea, lined on both sides by neatly maintained roadside trees, and offers a view of Hakodate Bay and the Mashu Maru, the memorial to the Seikan-Hakodate Liaison Ship, both of which are moored and on display.

Hachimanzaka is a slope that leads past the waterfront lined with red brick warehouses to Mount Hakodate. The slope is one of the most popular of Hakodate's slopes, with handrailed stairs leading up to the top of the hill and road heating on the sidewalks in winter, making it an easy stroll for people of all ages, even those who are not confident about their walking ability.

In addition, Hakodate Illumination is held in winter, when the streets and cobblestone pavement are beautifully illuminated. Many visitors come to enjoy the night view that can only be seen on Hachimanzaka, which is as good as the night view from Mount Hakodate.

Highlights

  • The beautiful view of Hakodate through the trees and cobblestones, which was used in the commercial.
  • Hakodate's most popular slope connecting the waterfront to Mt Hakodate.
  • Hakodate Illumination in winter is a spectacular sight.

  • Walking along this street, you get to experience the unique parallel slope of Hachimanzaka, paved with stone bricks. The Hachimanzaka I walked on is actually the most popular street in Hakodate. I really recommend coming here to soak up the artsy vibes!
