Otaru Canal Review

The red brick warehouses on both sides of the Otaru Canal have been converted into glass craft shops, restaurants, cultural and creative shops and fine cake shops. It takes about 50 minutes (680 yen) to get by tram from JR Otaru Station, and it takes about 10 minutes to walk to the canal. Before going to the Internet to pay attention to whether the Otaru Canal has a holiday light, take pictures of the beautiful!

The Otaru Snow Light Path Festival is a winter festival that held every February in Otaru , we came here by taxi from Nesiko, it cost us around USD 150-200 round trip. Luckily, during this time the city decorated in lights and small snow statues for only ten days. Although we did not see The Sapporo Snow Festival this time we as other did. But we enjoyed the romantic night very much.

i immediately fell in love with this city. i really love the vibes here. i will visiting again on another season.

The climate is pleasant and the environment is beautiful. It is suitable for a family to come and rest. The traffic is good. The store is very enthusiastic. I will come back next time. If I have time, I can come and watch a movie.

A quiet and peaceful town in Hokkaido. The people here are more welcoming than in the city.

There are shops and places to eat by the river. There are lights at night and the atmosphere is good. When it snows in winter. More beautiful. There are many similar places in China, and there are fewer people in Xiaoyan.

It's a very nice place to walk and take photo during winter. Unforgettable moment !

Because of the famous Iwai Juner's "Love Letter", it was first-hand to have a certain understanding of Xiaoyan. Although the movie is winter, Xiaoyu is the location, but the canal is almost invisible inside, but Wenqing love brain supplement, Hokkaido is vast enough, winter is vast enough, that sound "how are you? I am very good" is to let countless people move~ so what happened here in Xiaoyu, Pure love story, must be like the canal, light, leisurely. In fact, the Otaru Canal was opened in 1923, and the canal is surrounded by red brick warehouses, bustling markets, and countless goods shipped in and out. It was the symbol of the North Japan, Hokkaido economy and financial center, and even called the "Northern Wall Street." Later, due to the retreat of the war industry, the small dragonfly lost the role of the canal. Therefore, half the length of the canal was filled up for road use, and the warehouse buildings were changed to restaurants, bars, shops, tea houses, and gradually, the Otaru Canal has become a popular tourist attraction. Especially the stage of "Love Letter" has become a punching point for many petty bourgeoisie.
