There's a slope next to the water collection spot, and the snow gets really slippery after lots of people walk on it. Many people in our group slipped and got hurt 🤕️

Otaru Triangle Market
The Otaru Triangle Market, nestled between JR Otaru Station and National Route 5, is a small yet historic marketplace with origins dating back to the 1940s. It began with a few street vendors and developed as a morning market, accumulating over 60 years of history. Just a minute's walk from Otaru Station, the market is conveniently accessible and, except for New Year's Day, is open almost daily. Its reputation for affordable prices attracts a steady flow of both locals and tourists from Japan and abroad. The market's name derives from its triangular-shaped plot and roof.
There are several small restaurants and food stalls inside the market serving all kinds of seafood dishes like seafood rice bowls, sushi, and grilled fish. I especially recommend the seafood rice bowl here—it's packed with toppings, tastes great, and is reasonably priced.

Japan Kokeshi Museum
The museum opened in Naruko Onsen, known as the oldest production area for kokeshi dolls, sparked by the dedication of kokeshi dolls from artisans across Japan and the donation of a collection by poet and children’s story writer Kaname Fukasawa. Naruko kokeshi have been loved as children’s toys since Approx. 200 years ago, and later developed into souvenirs as well as hobbies and display pieces for adults.
The museum has a great variety of exhibits and lots of activities. If you love traditional crafts and Japanese culture, this is a spot you shouldn’t miss.
