A day trip to Fairy Tale Otaru, but I didn’t go to Tengu Mountain

If you go to Hokkaido, you can't miss Otaru [SnowFlake] The weather was bad in the morning, and Mount Hakodate was on our itinerary, so we decisively gave up Mount Tengu and chose the aquarium instead. [Star] Itinerary: Funamizaka-Shukutsu Observatory & Aquarium-Canalside Shopping We stayed in Otaru, so we walked from the hotel to Funamizaka Funamizaka. Just after exiting Otaru Station, turn left, pass the Sanjiao Market, turn left and climb a little uphill to arrive. Let's check in and take a photo p3. You can also take photos of the railway on the bridge, but unfortunately there are iron railings. After taking the photos, walk back to Otaru Station and take bus No. 11. The last stop is the aquarium, Otaru Aquarium. The ticket price is 250 yen. After getting off the bus, go to the Shukujin Observatory first, and then climb uphill towards the Ferris wheel. It takes several hundred meters and is quite fast to climb P1&2&4. After taking pictures, there is a staircase opposite the Ferris wheel. Climb up to the aquarium. Buy tickets on site, 1,300 yen per person. The main thing is to watch the little penguin and dolphin performances. We watched the little penguin show at 12:40. The little penguins will take two laps. There is no need to go early in advance to wait. We arrived 2 or 3 minutes early. After watching the little penguins, you can watch the dolphin show at 13:00, and then you can take the bus back. The bus returns to the second-to-last stop, and then walk to the Otaru Canal. You can stroll and take photos, such as Snoopy/Kitty/Miffy. Many stores in Otaru close at 18:00 or 19:00, so pay attention to your time. Basically after 19:00 at night, there are no people on the street [Facepalm] There is really no nightlife at all [Facepalm]
