Taking the sightseeing boat on Lake Inawashiro was really relaxing. The lake is huge, and it’s especially great when the weather is nice. The blue sky against the water makes the whole view feel so peaceful.

Nakajima Park
Located at the heart of Sapporo, Nakajima Park offers a verdant space. many tourists flock to this popular park to see ever-changing scenery through four seasons.
Nakajima Park during ginkgo season was even more beautiful than I expected. The sunlight made everything glow golden, and the whole place had such a lovely atmosphere.
With the lake right next to it too, having scenery like this in the middle of Sapporo is a huge plus. -

Kohfukuji Temple
This temple was first built as a private residence of Fujiwara no Kamatari in Yamashina-suehara of Yamashiro-no-kuni (current Kyoto prefecture) and named Yamashina-dera, and later, Fujiwara no Fuhito decided to relocate to the current place at the time of the establishment of the Heijo Ⅽapital in 710, and the temple was renamed Kohfukuji.
I was originally just planning to stop by, but I ended up really liking Kohfukuji Temple. The buildings are very well preserved, and the Buddhist statues in the National Treasure Museum were especially stunning. It was amazing to see the details up close.

Ashikaga Flower Park
At Ashikaga Flower Park, you can enjoy the sight of all kinds of seasonal flowers, which adorn the park according to eight themes: "Early Spring", "The Spring Flower Festival", "A Tale of the Wisteria", "Rainbow Garden", "Blue and White Garden", "The Flower Faeries Who Float By the Water", "Purple Garden", and "The Garden of Illuminated Flowers". The park is a popular location, enjoying not only local visitors, but those from abroad.
Even though it gets really crowded during flower season, the space inside is bigger than I expected, so it didn’t feel too cramped. I was still able to enjoy the flowers at a relaxed pace.
