In Hakodate, I made a special visit to the Hakodate Seikan Liaison Ship Memorial Museum Mashu-maru. The entire ship is docked at Hakodate Port, and even from the outside, it has a strong sense of history. After boarding, you can actually walk through the ship and see the equipment and spaces once used by the Seikan ferry, as if you had stepped into a time machine and gone back to the past.

Niseko Takahashi Dairy Farm
At the base of the majestic Mount Yotei lies a vast ranch, nestled in the beautiful and bountiful natural environment of Niseko. Here, with a commitment to quality soil and grass cultivation, dairy cows are meticulously reared. The process is comprehensive, spanning from the nurturing of the cows to the production of fresh milk products.
At Takahashi Dairy Farm, of course you can’t miss the farm’s popular treats! This time, I got a milk ice cream cone. It was full of rich milky flavor from the first bite, but it wasn’t too heavy and went down very smoothly.
The ice cream had a dense, smooth texture, and the rich milk flavor slowly spread through my mouth. You could taste the natural creaminess in every bite. Eating it at the farm, surrounded by pastoral scenery, made it feel even more like a relaxing vacation.

Jozankei Gensen Park
Jozankei Gensen Park was opened in 2005 on the 200th anniversary of Miizumi Jozan's birth, who was an ascetic monk and is said to have provided the foundation of Jozankei Onsen. On the premises, there is a recreated scene of Jozan finding the hot spring as well as his statue and various hot spring facilities.
Jozankei Gensen Park is near the Jozankei Onsen district and is a nice little spot for a walk and a rest. Its most distinctive feature is the free footbath. When your feet get tired, you can sit down and soak them in the warm hot spring water. It feels so warm and comfortable, especially in cold weather!
