[2025 Otaru Attraction] Travel Guide for Former Japanese National Railways, Temiya line (Updated Jan)

During the city's growth, it diligently transported goods and people. However, as times changed, it became difficult for the railway to maintain its former use. Eventually, the few remaining stations closed one by one, and the railway faded into history. Actually, it's great. It's really beautiful when you go during the fall foliage. It would also be incredibly beautiful in the spring. Even when it snows, or when the greenery is lush. It's always good. Try it, try it.

When you visit Otaru, you will inevitably pass by this railway. It is located right in the middle of the town, so you will always come across it. This railway has been abandoned and is now like a park. Every time I finish eating, I come here for a walk to digest my food, take some photos, and enjoy the scenery. It's so peaceful!
