Exploring Sapporo & Biei? This is Japan’s Hokkaido at its autumn best — think blazing gold ginkgo trees, surreal blue waters and waterfall magic! 🍂💙 Top Spots to Visit 1. Hokkaido University Ginkgo Avenue (〒060-0812 Sapporo, Kita Ward, 北13条西5~7丁目北海道大学構内) — Walk through endless rows of ginkgo trees turning golden in late October/early November. It’s free, open all day, and literally makes you feel lost in a yellow wonderland. 2. Shirahige Waterfall (Shirogane, Biei 071-0235) — Cascading white water meets turquoise river. No ticket needed, and it’s stunning any time, but morning light is magic for photos! 3. Shirogane Blue Pond / Aoiike (Shirogane, Biei 071-0235) — Hokkaido’s insta-famous blue lake, open 07:00–19:00. The pond really glows after sunrise and in full evening light. If it’s recently rained, colors look extra dreamy! Travel Tips - Getting Around: Renting a car! - Autumn leaves peak from late October/early November, but dress warm — it gets chilly! #HokkaidoAutumn #SapporoLeaves #BieiBluePond #Tripcom #JapanNature
