This World Heritage Site is where Tokugawa Ieyasu rests. Toshogu Shrine is incredibly lavish and really shows off the Tokugawa shogunate's power back in the day.

JR Tower Observatory T38
JR Tower is a multiplex venue located in Sapporo adjacent to JR Sapporo Station. The top floor, on the 38th is the “JR Tower Observatory T38”. This observatory up 160m in height lets visitors see Ishikari Bay New Port to the North, Mt. Teine to the West, Sapporo City, and Sapporo Dome to the South.
During the day, you get a full view of the city and the natural scenery. At night, Sapporo lights up beautifully—especially in winter, when the snowy landscape and night views are just stunning.

Chuson-ji Temple
Chuson-ji Temple, founded in 850 AD, owns over 3,000 national treasures and important cultural properties and is also registered as a World Heritage site. This temple was built to transmit the powerful wish to comfort the spirits of those killed in the Tohoku War, no matter which side they were on.
This is a huge temple complex with lots of historical sites preserved. Walking up the slope, the massive trees on both sides create such a relaxing vibe.
