Hokkaido University
Hokkaido University is also a tourist destination and has a wonderful botanical garden.
This time, I did not enter the botanical garden because the date did not match. Unfortunately, next time!
Hokkaido University was originally an agricultural school.
You can see many plants and old buildings in the school.
It is the most beautiful campus in Japan.
You can get the map of Hokkaido University to free
The Information Center has all major university related materials, including important publications in English, such as the Guidebook, Handbook, and official Hokkaido University maps.

It was a holy mountain of the Ainu people.
Ainu is the indigenous people of Hokkaido.
From the summit you can see the town of Sapporo
nearby mountains and the sea.
You use a rope way from the foot to the middle
and use a small cable car from middle to the summit on the mountain.
Take the tram!
The streetcars in Sapporo are circulating, so you can take either direction. When you go around, you can understand the state of Sapporo.
You can see the usual situation of Sapporo instead of sightseeing.
Around 50 minutes, the fee is 200 yen.
On Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays the one-day shiden pass “Dosanko Pass” is a great bargain – with just 1 ticket priced at ¥370. One child (up to elementary school age—12 years) can ride for free when accompanying an adult with the pass.
You can take a tour of the train cars at the train bureau, admission free of charge!
