Itinerary

The Old Aoyama Villa is a symbol of herring fishing, born out of the dream of a 17- year-old young woman, Masae Aoyama. As you can see, this mansion was built regardless of expense and was furnished with every luxury during the golden age of herring fishing in Shukutsu. Otaru City has recognized the importance of this building by designating it as one of registered tangible cultural property. We hope that it will make you too feel nostalgic for the spirit of earlier days and the fine arts of those times. 3-63 Shukutsu, Otaru 047-0047, Hokkaido ■ Business hours The old Aoyama Villa's Entrance Hours: ●April - December: 9:00 ~ 17:00 ●January - March: 9:00 ~ 16:00 - Final areception time: 30 minutes before the closing time - December 29th - December 31st: 9:00 ~ 15:00 - Regular closing: 1st January ~ 7th January. ■ Age criteria: Adult ticket only ■ Valid period : The expiry date or the usage date that was printed on Electronic voucher ■Attention items when booking a voucher - Cancellation & reissue after voucher issuance is impossible. - It is possible to be fined for counterfeiting valuable documents and indiscriminate copying. - Do not reissue in case of loss, damages to ticket, Electronic voucher. - It is impossible to change information such as date of use, customer name after issuing the Electronic voucher - Can not be used except for specified use date - It is impossible to reissue because of loss, theft. ※ Business hours may be changed depending on the local circumstances. ※ Before buying a pass or ticket, please be sure to check closing related information on business days. ※ Business hours may change according to bad weather or seasonal business. ※ We will not be held responsible for extraordinary closure. ※ Transaction time may change if there is any event at the facility.

About Otaru

Otaru is a canal port on Hokkaido's west coast, with old stone warehouses, glassworks, music boxes and a street of sushi restaurants.

Otaru grew rich in the late nineteenth century as a herring and shipping port, and the stone warehouses along its canal, now cafés, galleries and shops, date from that time. Gas lamps line the canal at dusk, and Sakaimachi Street, with its Meiji-era banks and glass shops, runs inland. Outside the Otaru Music Box Museum stands a steam clock that vents steam and sounds a whistle.
