  2. Pass by Odori Park, located in the central district of Sapporo Odori Park is an oasis in an office district surrounded by 92 species of lilacs, haru elms, and other 4,700 trees. Visitors and residents alike enjoy relaxing on the lawn and around the fountain. Odori Park is actually a road, although it is called a park. 1871 (Meiji 4), a firebreak line dividing the center of Sapporo from north to south was built, which became a road called Goshidori, and the name was changed to Odori. Normally a place of relaxation and recreation, it is also the site of some of Hokkaido's most famous events. Stretching from east to west, Odori Park is divided into 12 blocks from 1-chome to 12-chome, each block separated by a pedestrian crossing. The distance from one end of Odori Park to the other is about 1.5 km, and it takes about 30 minutes to walk.

  • 5Not only drinks but a great food experience too!

    We stopped at 3 places to eat & drink, with plenty for both for us. Our guide Ran was a delight & we especially enjoyed the discussions of our different cultures & learning more about Japan on a more personal level.

  • 5Great nightlife experience in Sapporo

    We had so much fun. Aika made this experience unforgettable. She chose the places so wisely, like if she knew our personality just by one eyesight! In addition, we were able to live the real Sapporo nightlife: tasty food and marvelous drinks. Stunning views and very nice people. She has perfect English btw 🤭 We will always be thankful and if we come back to Sapporo, we would repeat it!

About Sapporo

Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido, is a grid-planned city of wide parks, an annual snow festival, miso ramen and mountains close behind.

Sapporo was laid out as a grid in the 1870s, when Japan's government developed the northern island, so its streets are wide and straight, split by Odori Park, a long green strip through the middle. The red-brick former Hokkaido government building and the white clock tower, both from the Meiji period, recall that era, and the Hokkaido Shrine lies in a wooded park in the west.

Top-ranked sights in Sapporo: Odori Park (Odori Koen), Susukino, Sapporo TV Tower.
