If you visit Sapporo and skip Nijo Market, you're really missing out. The whole market is super clean and tidy, with no fishy smell at all. Walking around here feels great.

Grand Park Otaru
Approx. a 5-minute walk from Otaru-Chikko Station. Overlooking Ishikari Bay, this seaside resort hotel connects directly to Wing Bay Otaru, a large shopping and entertainment complex with a movie theater and mall. Rooms, mainly twins, are all at least 32㎡-among the most spacious in Otaru. With 296 rooms across 11 types, choose between ocean and mountain views.
Right next to the Wing Bay Otaru shopping center, so it’s super convenient for grabbing food and shopping.

Mt. Otowa Kiyomizu-dera Temple
Opened in the year 778, the temple was registered as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site in 1994. In the 130, 000 m2 area of the precincts spread out on the hillside of Mt. Otowa, there are more than 30 cathedrals and monuments, including national treasures and important cultural properties.
Kiyomizu-dera is one of the must-visit spots in Kyoto.
The scenery and atmosphere are absolutely fantastic and really stand out.
The only downside is the huge number of tourists, which can be the biggest challenge. -

Araya Yama Jinja
Araya Yama Shrine has been revered as god of the mountains and industry, which was built in 1534. At the foot of Mt. Fuji, the main hall and the rear hall stand. People tell business owners and entrepreneurs, ”If you don’t want to have trouble with money, visit this shrine.” It is a popular power spot as one of the three shrines for blessings of wealth.
Some people call this a “money-luck shrine,” and a lot of people come here specially to pray for good fortune.
But the location isn’t very convenient. Regular buses don’t come that often, and if you want to visit both the main shrine and the inner shrine, you really have to watch the weather and the season. -
