American Village is full of an exotic vibe, with colorful streets, unique shops, great food, and ocean views.
It’s perfect for shopping and taking photos during the day, and at night the lights feel romantic, creating a relaxed resort atmosphere.

Mt. Moiwa Ropeway (Observation deck)
Mt. Moiwa is located at the almost center of Sapporo. A Swiss-made mini cable car designed to observe the forest runs to the altitude of 531m, this mountain is easily reached to the peak so loved by Sapporo citizens, there are five mountain trails to go up to the peak.
I planned a trip on the Mt. Moiwa Ropeway while in Sapporo. As the cable car slowly made its way up the mountain, the scenery along the way became more and more expansive. As we climbed higher, downtown Sapporo gradually came into view, and the ride itself filled me with anticipation.
After arriving at the observation deck, I looked out over downtown Sapporo from above, with the entire cityscape spread out before me. At night, the lights came on one by one, and the view from the mountain was especially beautiful. I couldn't stop taking photos to remember it by.

Mt. Moiwa
Just about 20 minutes by public transport from downtown Sapporo, Mt. Moiwa stands 531 meters tall and still preserves its primeval forest. Its easy accessibility has made it a beloved getaway for locals.
I went to Mt. Moiwa in Sapporo to see the night view, and I was truly captivated by the scenery before me! As the cable car made its way up the mountain and gradually climbed higher, the lights of downtown Sapporo slowly came into view.
Once I reached the observation deck, I saw a whole cityscape sparkling with lights that stretched into the distance. Together with the darkness of the mountain at night, the entire scene was very romantic. Standing high up in the cold wind, I still couldn't bring myself to leave.

Yakitori Tetchan
At the north exit of Kichijoji Station, there is an area of about 100 shops affectionately called Harmonica Alley or Harmonica Yokocho. Most of these shops are restaurants, and this yakitori restaurant in one corner is a lovely spot to stop into. We are working on the interior design of the Olympic Stadium.
We came to Yakitori Tetchan for some grilled skewers. The whole place has the atmosphere of a Japanese izakaya, and once we sat down, we just kept eating skewer after skewer. It was really satisfying!
The skewers were fragrant and delicious, with a lightly charred exterior and tender meat. They were so tasty with the sauce. Every skewer had a wonderful charcoal-grilled aroma, and the more we ate, the harder it was to stop.
Overall, everything was really delicious, and it was one of the most memorable meals of the trip.
