If you yearn for the fairytale atmosphere of Furano, Hokkaido, the Forest Elf Balcony is definitely a must! Located in Furano Nakagoryo, this attraction is surrounded by trees and fresh air, giving you the feeling of being in a dream forest. Looking at a large forest, the balcony is designed in a European cabin style, especially suitable for couples or friends to come together to take pictures. And whether it's sunny or sunset, the natural scenery is super healing, great for taking pictures. Recommended tour routes: It is recommended to drive or take a bus from downtown Furano to the Forest Genie Balcony. There are different angles on the way to see hills, forests, and even snow cover in winter, doubling fantastic. For photo spots, it is recommended to go up at dusk, where you can take pictures of the woods and cabins under the sunset, the atmosphere is super romantic. Must-play items: 1. This is the best place to take pictures/wedding photos—especially at sunset, the natural background is super beautiful. 2. You can sit on the balcony and quietly enjoy the mountain view, breathing the fresh and cold air of Hokkaido. 3. There is a little elf-themed gift shop next to the balcony, where buying Furano-limited souvenirs and boutiques is quite special. Tips and Notes: - The Forest Elf Balcony is open seasonally, so be sure to check the opening hours before going: Open every year from October 25 to November 2 and November 29 to March 31 of the following year, closed from November 3 to November 28 in between (opening hours 11:00-19:45/12:00-20:45). - It is recommended to visit at dusk, soft light, the best photography effect; but if you go in winter remember to pay attention to keep warm, Furano is very cold at night. - Some sections of the surrounding trail may be slippery, especially when it snows to wear hiking shoes/non-slip shoes, safety comes first. - It is more convenient to drive from the city, not recommended too late return, at night the forest is darker and no lights. - There are not many styles of goods in the gift shop, but the advantage is that they have characteristics. You can buy them and give them away. There are not only lavender gardens in Furano, Hokkaido, the forest elf balcony is a great place to feel nature, relax and take romantic photos, perfect for both couples and girlfriends!
