[2025 Hakodate Attraction] Travel Guide for Goryōkaku Tower (Updated Apr)

#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 When it comes to souvenirs from Hokkaido, Rokkatei will definitely come to mind. Who would have thought that in addition to a store counter, Rokkatei also has an in-house coffee shop! This time in Goryokaku, Hakodate, Hokkaido, I visited the Rokkatei branch and bought some souvenirs while having afternoon tea! The Goryokaku branch of Rokkatei is very artistic. It is located in a sea of ​​trees. The floor-to-ceiling windows outside let in the cherry trees and light, creating a lush green scene. If the pink cherry blossoms bloom in spring, I wonder how beautiful it will be! The dining area is very busy and you need to wait for a table, but while you wait you can go shopping and have a great time. You don’t feel the wait is tiring at all! Of course, the afternoon tea should be scented tea, served in beautiful porcelain cups. It looks very elegant and is worth experiencing, especially when your legs are sore after visiting Wulingguo, you must come and sit for a while. #Hokkaido Travel #Hakodate #Goryokaku Park #Rokkatei

#日本景点 The 107-meter-high Goryokaku Tower is the best place to view Goryokaku Park. The cherry blossom season every year also attracts many tourists to visit. In winter, there will also be a night lighting event called "Dream of Goryokaku Star". If you choose to go there around dusk, you can see both the morning and evening scenery at once❣️ 🅿️This attraction does not have a dedicated parking lot. You can only park nearby for a fee. The first hour is 200 yen, and then 100 yen every 30 minutes.

In April 2006, the new 107m-high tower was completed and opened. From the 90m observatory, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the special historic site Goryo-Atsushi and the prosperous streets of Hakodate. Climb Goryokaku Tower in winter to overlook the city of Hakodate, tickets and transportation methods. Goryokaku Tower is one of the landmarks of Hakodate. It is located in the Goryokaku area with Goryokaku Park and is a popular tourist attraction in the Hakodate area. You can enjoy cherry blossoms in spring, maple leaves in autumn, and lights in winter. Goryokaku was used for military purposes as a bunker. What is more special is that it adopts a five-pointed star-shaped appearance. Generally, when traveling to the Goryokaku area, in addition to taking a walk in Goryokaku Park, you will also climb the Goryokaku Tower observation deck, which is about 107m high. You can see the beautiful scenery of the pentagonal park and moat, the street scenes of Hakodate city and the coastal sea views. This winter I visited Goryokaku Tower, but it was a pity that there was no snow these days, otherwise it would be more beautiful.

Another place to visit when you are at the Goryokaku Fort you have to visit the Goryokaku Tower which is a 90 metre Tower overlooking the entire Fort. The entrance fee includes admission into the Tower, but the queue might be long to go up into the Tower but its worth the wait. The price admission may be expensive but it gets cheaper if you go with 30 people or more and the view above is breathtaking where you will be able to get a view of the pentagonal park and at the far end you be able to see the mount hakodate(provided weather is clear). This view is exceptionally beautiful especially in spring and also in winter where everything is blanketed in white snow. #celebratewithtrip #hakodate #view #scenic #goryokaku #viewfromabove

The tower is an interactive museum, telling a story of the fort and providing a great view on the surroundings. Great if you're into history. Make the time to visit the tower is you are in Hakodate. This lovely little port is graced with a number of attractions. The tower provides a 360 degree eagle-eye view of the city, including the Goryokaku Park, a beautiful and unusually shaped piece of land originally built to be a fort. The day of our visit was apparently the busiest of the year but, despite the queues, it was a lovely day and the crowds added to the ambience. Definitely worth the visit. The crowds were efficiently and effectively managed. #givethanks #givethanks

The star-shaped Goryokaku fortress is located in Hakodate. Starting in 1603, the Tokugawa Shogunate implemented over 200 years of national isolation, prohibiting trade with the Netherlands and China. However, in 1854, after signing friendly treaties with countries like the US and Britain, Hakodate became an open port and a hub for economic development. While opening up, the Shogunate also took precautions by sending the Hakodate Magistrate to establish a strategic fortress in Hakodate to protect government institutions. Goryokaku was built during this time. Designed by Takeda Hisaburo, who studied European fortresses, it took seven years to complete, incorporating cannons and other weaponry. After the Boshin War, the Tokugawa Shogunate collapsed. A naval commander of the Tokugawa forces led 3,000 men to Goryokaku, intending to develop Hokkaido in exchange for leniency from the Meiji government. However, the Meiji government sought to eliminate all remnants of the Shogunate, leading to the Battle of Hakodate, which marked the end of the Shogunate era. After visiting Goryokaku, you can find Lucky Pierrot nearby, a burger chain hailed as the best in Japan. Established in Hakodate in 1987, it now boasts 17 locations in the city. Founded by Ichiro Wang, a second-generation Chinese immigrant from Kobe, the chain specializes in Chinese-style burgers and has become a Hakodate specialty. 📍Address: 43-9 Goryokakucho, Hakodate, Hokkaido 040-0001, Japan 📍Address: 〒040-0001 北海道函館市五稜郭町３０−14 🚗 Take the city tram to Goryokaku Park-mae and walk for ten minutes.

#0 yen trip February 2025 Weather: Sunny 23/33℃ No humidity, dry heat Transportation: Rental car ▼ Biei Shikisai no Oka Time required: 30 minutes Parking fee: 500 yen Admission fee: 500 yen Reservation: No need Parking is free if you eat at "Udon Restaurant Mugisai no Oka" across the street. You can buy your admission ticket at the ticket machine at the entrance (I think it was cash only). I left the park after 9:00, but tourists were flooding in from that time. ▼ Furano ① Balloon experience Access: 18 Kitanomine-cho, Furano City Time required: 15-20 minutes Reservation: I made a reservation in advance, but it seemed like I could experience it without a reservation, probably because it was early on a Sunday morning. ② Farm Tomita Admission fee/parking fee: Free Spending time: 50 minutes Reservation: No need The number of people increases from this time. The nearby roads are congested, but the parking lot is large. People were moving fast, so we didn't have to wait long. The lavender soft serve and melon slices were especially delicious. It's quite large, so if you want to see it properly, it will take a while. ▼Hakodate ① Night view of Mt. Hakodate Access: Hakodate Station - Mt. Hakodate Summit Bus - Route 1 Mt. Hakodate Climbing Bus, bus stop number 4 (bus stop on the left after exiting Hakodate Station) Instead of using the Mt. Hakodate Ropeway, take the bus that goes from Hakodate Station to the summit for a limited time. It's cheap at 500 yen one way, and you can use an IC card. No reservation is required, so it's easy to use. I recommend sitting on the right on the way there and the left on the way back. They drive with the interior darkened, they guide you while driving, and they even stop at the view points. ② Goryokaku Tower Buy tickets at the 7-Eleven near the Jujigai bus stop. You can purchase them for 900 yen instead of 1000 yen. It's 100 yen cheaper, and there's quite a line at the tower counter, so it's better to buy a ticket in advance. You can buy it at most convenience stores on the day. There is a large souvenir shop on the first floor. ③Hachimanzaka The sunlight filtering through the trees is very beautiful. There are also many hydrangeas blooming along the way, so you can take a walk in a beautiful landscape. 🍰Recommended food🍰 Sumire Main Store (Miso Ramen) Yuigadokuson (Curry) Campana Rokkatei (Genghis Khan, also has a Rokkatei shop) Furano Cheese Factory (Cheese Soft Serve) #Hokkaido #Otaru #Biei #Furano #Sapporo #Hakodate

After reaching New Chitose Airport, we took JR to Hakodate which takes about 4 hours to reach. The hotel we stayed at was Flexstay Inn Hakodate Station. The hotel is located just opposite Hakodate JR and bus station. The first day we just had our dinner near the hotel as it was quite late when we reached. Day 2 We chose to have our breakfast in the hotel which only cost 1200 yen with quite a lot of variety. Then we walked to the Hakodate bus station opposite the hotel there are plenty of buses going to Goryokaku Garden. There are many people doing exercise at Goryokaku Garden. It is a beautiful star-shaped park and historical site. We chose to go up to Goryokaku tower, which needs us to buy a ticket that costs 1000 Yen or can buy from trip.com which costs about $8.8 sgd. Goryokaku tower is an observation tower which allows us to view and capture the panoramic views of the star-shaped Goryokaku Fort. It also shows Goryokaku’s history and the Boshin War using the miniature figurines. Then we took the bus to Hakodate Tropical Botanical Garden which allowed us to see monkeys showering in the hot spring. The entrance fee is 300 Yen/pax. There is a Greenhouse garden but similar to Singapore so we pass on it. Then we found a small ramen shop nearby which is operated by an elderly woman herself, the fried rice is very nice. Next we took a tram from Yunokawa onsen to Juijigai station which cost about 260 yen. From Jiujigai we walked to Machikado crepe, which is located on the 2nd floor, this crepe is the best crepe that I have ever tried, very crispy and delicious. Then we continue to walk to the Kanemori red brick warehouse. There is a Lucky Pierrot, we went to have a burger there, the bun was full of sesame fragrant, worth trying. The Mount Hakodate ropeway was too crowded so we never went up to Mount Hakodate. Day 3 Early in the morning we walked from Hotel to Hakodate Morning Market Square to have our seafood breakfast. Then we took JR to our next station - Otaru. #newyearnewtrip #hokkaido #hakodate #goryokaku #redbrickwarehouses #luckypierrot #hachimanzakaslope #Hakodatemorningmarket

Our company trip took us to Goryokaku, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful! From above, it looks like a five-pointed star. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see the night view this time. I've heard that in spring, the view is pink because the area below is filled with cherry blossom trees, making it look like a pink star. I hope to have the chance to visit again in spring!
