Sakura season at Hakodate

We reached Hakodate on 11 May 25 and never expect still have sakura blooming at this timing. We stayed at La’gent Stay Hakodate Ekimae Hotel for 2 night. Our itinerary : Day 1: Morning at Lake Toya and self drive to Hakodate, reached Hakodate around 5pm so we went to GU and Uniqlo shopping as the sunset around 6.45pm. After shopping, we drive directly to Mt. Hakodate parking and take the ropeway as car cannot drive up to Mt. Hakodate after 5pm. Day 2: After breakfast, we went to Goryokaku Tower but sad that the sakura all drops on the floor. Secondly, we shopping at Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse and Hachiman-zaka Slope for photo taking. Day 3: Must buy scallop and kunbu at Hakodate morning market. Their price is the cheapest in Hokkaido. But remember to negotiate the price before you confirm to purchase.

Day 4: Otaru to Tomamu Headed to Tomamu and checked into The Tower Hoshino Resort. Spent the afternoon at Unkai Terrace, enjoying breathtaking views of the "Sea of Clouds." We ended the day with a cozy dinner at the resort, surrounded by stunning mountain vistas. Day 5: Tomamu (Day Trip to Furano) Took a day trip to Furano and visited the famous Farm Tomita, known for its lavender fields (a must-see during summer!). Afterward, we returned to Tomamu, enjoyed a relaxing evening at the resort, and dined at Garaku, which offered an exquisite dining experience. Day 6: Tomamu to Sapporo Checked out of Tomamu and headed to Sapporo. Once there, we visited the iconic Sapporo Clock Tower and strolled through Odori Park. For dinner, we indulged in rich, flavorful Taketora Ramen (竹藏ラーメン), which became one of our trip’s highlights. Day 7: Sapporo Spent the day at the Sapporo Beer Museum, learning about the brewing process, then relaxed at the beautifully designed Moerenuma Park. In the evening, we went shopping at Tanukikoji Arcade, a bustling street market in the heart of Sapporo. Day 8: Chitose On our final day, we visited Chitose Outlet Mall Rera for some last-minute shopping before heading to the airport for our flight. 🏨 Accommodation Hakodate: OMO5 Hakodate – A modern, stylish hotel close to everything. Otaru: OMO5 Otaru – Cozy, chic, and perfectly located for canal-side exploration. Tomamu: The Tower Hoshino Resort – A luxurious retreat with stunning mountain views. Sapporo: Sapporo Stream Hotel – A sleek, contemporary hotel right in the city center. 🍴 Food Recommendations Hakodate: NEMURO SEN-MA SUSHI (rotating sushi with incredibly fresh seafood). Otaru: Waka-Tori Jidai (mouthwatering yakitori and other chicken dishes). Tomamu: Garaku (fine dining experience) and The Hal for an unforgettable buffet breakfast. Sapporo: Taketora Ramen (rich miso ramen that you have to try). 📌 Tips Transport: Renting a car made it easy to get around, especially for Tomamu and Furano. Weather: Even in summer, Hokkaido can get a little chilly, so we packed layers
