The beautiful Aoike in Hokkaido💚💙

In addition to the hilly and pastoral scenery, Biei in Hokkaido also has the Blue Pond (青い池). If it had not been chosen as the built-in startup desktop of the MacBook Pro, this place might still be an absolute niche travel destination. In the late 1980s, in order to avoid mudslides caused by the eruption of Mount Tokachi, locals built a dam on the Biei River. The water from the Shirogane Hot Spring upstream was intercepted and gathered into a pool of water - the Blue Pond. The trees in the Blue Pond are actually dead branches, but due to the minerals in the Blue Pond, these dead trees will not rot. In the early morning sunlight, the dreamy pool reflects a color like Tiffany blue, which is stunningly beautiful. If you also like Tiffany blue, then you must not miss this place! I recommend the green pudding 🍮. Although the green pudding on top has a very ordinary taste, the one made with Tokachi milk on the bottom is delicious. The blue cream soda is also one of the specialties. The cookie pattern on the cream is the famous kitsune from Hokkaido🦊, very cute~ In the winter season, there is another different view. The Blue Pond will be lit up for a limited time at night after sunset, and the color of the light will change continuously, cycling every ten minutes or so. If you go to Hokkaido, you must not miss this place. But remember to check the weather report before going there. If it is cloudy, the effect will not be very good because there is no light; heavy rain may also cause the mud and sand to roll and turn into a pool of turbid water. 🙈 #Japan Attractions #Japan Attractions #Japan Travel #travel #Overseas Travel #Hokkaido
