A Snowy Day in Sapporo – Cold Hands, Warm Food & Sweet Finds☃️

#cityplaybook Sapporo in the snow feels like stepping into a winter postcard. The city is quiet and cozy, but there’s so much to explore—especially around Sapporo Station, where everything from history to hot meals is just a short walk away. I started the day admiring the snowy streets, with big flakes falling over the rooftops. There’s something magical about watching a city slow down under a fresh coat of snow. A quick stop at the Sapporo Clock Tower gave me a glimpse into the city’s history—and it looks especially charming in winter. For lunch, I headed to Suage, a local favorite for soup curry. The broth was rich, the toppings were hearty, and I highly recommend adding cheese to your rice. Game changer! Later on, I browsed gifts at Rokkatei, a famous sweets shop near the station. Their packaging is as beautiful as the treats inside—perfect for souvenirs (and for snacking on the train). To end the day, I had sushi at Nemuro Hanamaru inside the station building. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly affordable. It’s the kind of place where you want to try “just one more plate”… five times. Why I recommend Sapporo in winter: ・Snow turns the city into something seriously special—peaceful, bright, and beautiful ・The food is hearty, local, and full of soul—perfect for warming up between adventures 📍Sapporo, Japan #sapporo #hokkaido #winterwander #snowycity #soupcurrylove #rokkatei #conveyorbeltsushi #nemurohanamaru #cozyjapan #perfectday
