#getgoing2025 Aya Rinka® is an event where you can enjoy the fantastic scenery that colours Tokachigawa Onsen in winter. " About 600 light bulbs and light objects using LEDs will be lined up at the venue of "Tokachigaoka Park". The fantastic landscape of sound and light will overwhelm visitors. The object of light in the shape of a triangular cone is up to 5.4m. It is made using thermal insulation materials for agriculture. Several times a day, a fantasy show of light and an electro dancing show of light created by light and sound are held. Enliven the winter night of Obihiro with music that can be enjoyed regardless of nationality or generation. It will be an important memory no matter who you visit with.

I got a Spring Airlines ticket at a good price, flying directly from Shanghai to Sapporo. 😎 I had an ice cream and a soup curry at the airport, then took a super comfortable bus to my first stop, Tokachigawa Onsen. ♨ Tokachigawa Onsen Sanyoan is a great place to stay. It costs only CNY 1,200 for two adults and one child, including one night and two meals. You can enjoy a unique plant-based hot spring in Tokachigawa. The brown spring water is formed when the plant deposits from ancient times meet the hot spring. It contains natural moisturizing ingredients, which is different from the hot springs in Japan that are generally produced by volcanic geothermal heat. 🧐 Both dinner and breakfast are buffets. There are not many people, and I had venison for the first time. 🥩 The room is a standard 10-tatami Japanese-style room. After dinner, the staff will help you make the bed. After soaking in the hot spring, I had a good sleep. 😴 Obihiro is said to be Japan's granary, dessert kingdom, horse racing town, and the birthplace of Butadon (pork rice bowl)! My family and I walked in the snow, visited Obihiro Shrine ⛩ and Ryugetsu Main Store, and had a deluxe pork rice bowl and sweet milk. The small towns in northern Hokkaido are small. Walking on the snowy path with a full stomach, I didn't feel cold at all. 😊 I walked slowly to Obihiro Station, ready to watch a breathtaking winter sunset. If you are interested, you can also visit Happiness Station. 😉
