Asahiyama Zoo Who says that most animals close their doors and hibernate in groups when you go to the zoo in winter? Visiting Hokkaido’s Asahiyama Zoo on a snowy day is also a lot of fun! Cute penguins collectively walk in the snow, clumsy raccoons climb around making faces above your head, curious seals swim up and down in glass columns, playing and circling, and monkey groups huddle together for warmth. The biggest feature here is that it ensures animals are kept in a relatively free breeding state to the greatest extent possible, and through clever displays, visitors can observe animals at close range (this itinerary includes watching the penguin walk at 11:00 AM in winter) (the penguin walk is subject to official confirmation from mid-December to mid-March each year). Forest Elf Terrace Don’t miss the dreamy Elf Terrace illumination when you go to Hokkaido in winter! Warm yellow lanterns in the snow, elf cabins hidden in the woods, and the crunching sound of walking on snow – it’s a real-life ice and snow fairy tale! Shirakaba Waterfall Water flows down like a white beard from the cracks in the rocks, merging with the white snow in winter. Blue Pond The Shirogane Blue Pond attracts people all year round with its dreamy “azure water + larch trees” due to the refraction of light by minerals in the water. In winter, the water freezes and is covered with snow, making it difficult to see the typical blue surface during the day.
