I have often heard the news
that the number of foreign tourists visiting Hokkaido is increasing every year…
Last week I thought that the number is especially high
The reason is…
Finally, this season came in！
It’s the Sapporo Snow Festival
I have visited there 2 years in a row
It had been held from February 5 to 12,
the day I went was so cold…
First of all, which was a talk of the town
that is Projection Mapping in Odori 4-chome 
It is about 2~3 minutes.
It was impressive and impactive,
so I looked into it as I forgot about the cold
The ice sculptures were made in Odori 2-chome
In the night they were illuminated and very fantastic
I could see Sapporo TV tower lighted up from far away,
It looked so wonderful and magnificent♡
Near the entrance of the smoking room,
That’s a very fantastic view by ice and lightening up
But it seems freezing...
A huge jump stand appeared in Odori 3-chome
When I took these pictures, staffs were performing the maintenance...
But there were seats, it would be excited during the events...
In Odori 7-chome, there was the snow statue of Stockholm Cathedral in Sweden
It was a solemn atmosphere during daytime,
but at the evening...
As lightning up and changing color,
even same status looked different.
In Odori 10-chome,
there was the slide of a certain famous cup noodle
Where noodles seem to be pouring is slide
On the opposite side,
there were all major characters of snow statues
of BLACK JACK, Astro Boy, and Princess Knight
It was so huge and powerful
So, that's it for this week.
In the next week’s staff blog, we will introduce the food makes you warm up except for the snow sculptures.
Please look forward to it. ♪
