Asahiyama Zoo + Christmas Tree + Shikisai-no-oka (or Chiyoda Farm) + Ningle Terrace Day Trip | Departure from Sapporo | Chinese-Speaking Guide | Winter Limited Dreamy Itinerary
- Asahiyama Zoo's winter-limited project allows you to enjoy popular animals such as penguin walks, polar bears, and seals up close, making it Hokkaido's most popular parent-child attraction in winter.
- Check in at Hokkaido's "Christmas Tree" scenic spot. In winter, the white snow cover and solitary tree create a minimalist and healing landscape masterpiece, which is very popular among photography enthusiasts. (If weather or other force majeure reasons occur, it may be changed to Ken & Mary's Tree)
- Shikisai-no-oka or Chiyoda Ranch's winter snowfield scenery features pure white hills and super romantic snow scenery, where you can experience snow activities (depending on the situation on site) (snowmobiles are a paid experience), a holy place for taking photos with no dead ends.
- Ningle Terrace is a fairytale world. The wooden house trail is surrounded by forests and illuminated by lights, as if you are in a Nordic fairy tale. It is a must-visit attraction for couples and families. (The lighting time is officially decided, and if the lighting time is late, you may not be able to enjoy it.)
- A cozy car can provide hotel pick-up and drop-off services (pick-up and drop-off range is within 3 kilometers of Sapporo Station).
