It's not just a tourist spot—the old streets here really feel alive and full of warmth.

Hakodate Kosetsuen (Miharashi Park)
Hakodate Kosetsuen is a garden in the Miharashi Park in Hakodate City. During the Meiji Period, It was built as a vacation home for a rich merchant based in Hakodate. The name Kosetsuen is said to have been given by a Jodo Sect priest of Kyoto’s Chion-in, meaning “the garden fragrant with plum in snow.”
There are a bit more visitors on holidays, but it's not too crowded. You can still stroll around and relax.

With a sales floor of about 150 tsubo (about 495 m²), it boasts around 1,500 capsule toy vending machines.
