This time, I will introduce the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum in Abashiri, Hokkaido. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations before going, but I was pleasantly surprised. The Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum itself is not large, but there are many interesting things to see, such as the drift ice experience terrace at -15 degrees where you can touch the creatures of Okhotsk and real drift ice, the drift ice theater with five screens, and projection mapping. After the drift ice is transported to the building, it is transported to this room by hand. Before entering the terrace, you will be given a wet towel, so you can proceed while swinging it around. The towel will become hard as a rock... You can also take commemorative photos with seals and Ezo red foxes. After leaving the drift ice experience terrace, we watched the drift ice theater and the projection mapping, but what I was most fascinated by were the sea angels. It was the first time I had seen so many sea angels. After watching the sea angels for a while, we went to the observation terrace on the third floor. You can see Lake Abashiri. The prices are reasonable and there are many unique exhibits, so if you visit Abashiri, please stop by♪ 244-3 Tentozan, Abashiri, Hokkaido 093-0044 #Hokkaido Tourism #Hokkaido Trip #Abashiri Tourism #Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum #Aquarium #777

#OverseasTravel#Japan#JapanTravel#Hokkaido The Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum is a municipal science museum with the theme of drift ice and the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. The museum has a drift ice experience room at -15 degrees Celsius, where huge ice blocks of real drift ice are displayed, and you can experience the low temperature and coldness of drift ice all year round. It also introduces the reasons for the formation of drift ice and the ecology of the sea where it is located. You can enjoy the drift ice that drifts from the Amur River to Hokkaido, and the animals such as the drift ice angels that live under the drift ice. You can also learn about the mystery of the drift ice and the ecosystem of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. address 245-1 Tentosan, Abashiri City, Kaido

#Overseas Travel #Hokkaido #Japan Travel From the Tentosan Observatory, you can enjoy the beautiful view of Lake Abashiri! From the 360-degree glass-lined Tentosan Observatory, you can see the streets of Abashiri and Lake Notoro, Lake Abashiri, and Lake Tofu. If the weather is clear, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Shiretoko Peninsula and the Akan Mountains. I especially recommend the cracked ice-yaki here. It is said that the pottery here is made in cooperation with the ex-prisoners of Abashiri Prison, and the price is not expensive. address 245-1 Tentozan, Abashiri City, Hokkaido 093-0044

📍Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum 244-3 Tentozan, Abashiri, Hokkaido 093-0044 Adults 990 yen At this facility, located deep in the forests of Abashiri, you can see the actual drift ice in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk in Hokkaido. You will enter a room at minus 15 degrees, so you will be required to wear winter clothing. The facility as a whole is quite small, and you will be lucky if you can stay for 30 minutes. If you think it's worth the price, you should not go. I had the Okhotsk Drift Ice Soft Serve, which was caramel flavored with salt topping and was very delicious, so I felt that it was worth it just to have come across it✨🍨 #AbsolutelyFreeTrip

At first, I thought it was worth the long journey to take an icebreaker. We finally embarked on the Arctic ice trip with some doubts. Fortunately, we came to Eastern Hokkaido. Since there is no direct flight from Eastern Hokkaido to Hong Kong, we took a red-eye flight to Kansai Airport and then transferred to Memanbetsu Airport. The Daisetsuzan Mountains seen on the plane were very spectacular, which made us very tired and excited. After getting off the plane at Memanbetsu Airport and picking up the car, it took 5-10 minutes to drive to the first attraction: Melhen Hill. Just park the car on the side of the road and you can see a row of larch trees planted on the hill. It is famous for Kurosawa Akira's movie "Dream". It has different scenery throughout the year, and you can feel the tranquility of the snow in winter. On the way to Abashiri, I passed by a popular Gelato shop - Gelateria Rimo 📍Address: 418 Yobito, Abashiri, Hokkaido 099-2421Japan 🕰️Business hours: 1100-1700 (Wed off) The gelato is dense and solid, with a variety of flavors to choose from. If you drive by, you might as well try it. Abashiri Prison Museum is a must-visit when you come to Eastern Hokkaido 📍Address: 1-1 Yobito, Abashiri, Hokkaido 099-2421Japan 🕰️Business hours: 0900-1700 The Abashiri Prison Museum is a well-preserved outdoor history museum that displays Japan's most representative prison culture and prison architecture from the Meiji period. The most distinctive exhibition area in the museum is the "Five-wing Radial Cells". The design of this prison building is similar to the Western "Panopticon", with five corridors radiating from the central monitoring tower to facilitate managers to monitor the movements of prisoners. When you enter the prison, you can see wax figures that reproduce the lives of prisoners at that time, including scenes of labor, dining, sleeping, etc., which makes people understand the prison system of that era more intuitively. At that time, prisoners were forced to build the Hokkaido Road. The extremely harsh environment and high mortality rate made people feel awe and sympathy for that period of history. The museum also exhibits the tools, prison uniforms, and the development history of Abashiri Prison at that time. The content is quite rich, and it can deeply understand the history of the development of Hokkaido. It is definitely one of the most representative attractions in the Abashiri area. Then we went to the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum 📍Address: 244-3 Tentozan, Abashiri, Hokkaido 093-0044 Japan 🕰️Business hours: 0830-1800 The Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum is an exhibition hall with the theme of drift ice and polar ecology, allowing visitors to experience the charm of drift ice up close. The drift ice experience room in the museum is maintained at minus 15°C all year round. Visitors can try the "frozen towel experiment" of shaking a wet towel to create an instant freeze, which is very interesting. The ecological environment of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk is also introduced in the venue, which makes people marvel at the vitality of polar creatures. The observation deck on the top floor can overlook the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, and the view is excellent when the weather is good. Overall, this is a museum worth visiting, especially for tourists who want to learn more about the winter wonders of Eastern Hokkaido. The highlight of the second day-Abashiri drift ice sightseeing icebreaker Aurora Northern Hokkaido (the northernmost tip of Hokkaido) is close to the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, and the drift ice phenomenon is very obvious. The drift ice in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk mainly comes from the ice near the Amur River (Heilongjiang River) in Russia, and then flows south with the ocean current to the eastern coast of Hokkaido. Every winter, the sea surface in the northern region of Hokkaido is covered with drift ice, forming a unique winter landscape. Drift ice is a natural phenomenon, affected by weather and ocean currents, so the specific conditions of drift ice may vary. It usually appears between January and March each year. The best season for ice viewing is from January to March, when the drift ice is densest and easiest to see. We can see and experience the large and small drift ice drifting down from the sea by nature in the severe winter of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. We are very grateful. In the silver world in front of us, we take an hour-long icebreaker voyage, while breaking the drift ice covering the entire sea surface, and the drift ice crusher slowly moves forward. The vast drift ice field presented in front of us and the vibration and shaking caused by breaking the drift ice are all the presence that cannot be experienced by ice skating sightseeing on land, which can allow you to experience the white beauty of the north country more deeply. Thank you for catching up with the tail of the drift ice. The ice conditions and weather are good. Sometimes you can't take the icebreaker due to the climate. There were some other things to do, but due to the situation of drift ice in Shiretoko, the drift ice walking experience originally planned for tomorrow was changed to today, so we went straight to Shiretoko! GOGOGO! Walking on the drift ice in Utoro wearing a waterproof cold weather jacket was very fun and exciting❤️ It is definitely worth the experience😎😎 #Doto Tourism #Abashiri Trip #Shiretoko #Doto Drift Ice

Take a sightseeing bus from Abashiri Station and climb Mount Tento for about 15 minutes to reach the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum. After completing the reception on the first floor, head down to the basement where you’ll find aquarium exhibits and panels about the Okhotsk Sea. A staff member provided explanations using a tablet. The staff was very polite and passionate, creating a pleasant atmosphere as they answered any questions. Photography is prohibited only in the "Drift Ice Fantasy Theater." Here, you can watch 4K footage showcasing drift ice and the marine life inhabiting the sea. In the "Drift Ice Experience Room," you can feel a world of minus 15 degrees Celsius. You’re given a wet towel, and when you swing it around inside, it freezes! The chilly environment is not only felt but also visually experienced. Additionally, there’s real drift ice here that you can touch, allowing you to enjoy drift ice all year round! On the rooftop, there’s an observation terrace where you can enjoy views of Abashiri city from Mount Tento. You can see Lake Abashiri, the Okhotsk Sea, and surrounding mountains. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t great on the day I visited, and the wind was very strong! Despite this, my excitement remained high, and I’m sure the view would be stunning on a clear day. On the first floor, there’s a souvenir shop and a specialty drift ice soft serve ice cream made with salt from the Okhotsk Sea, offering a relaxing experience. If you visit Abashiri, be sure to stop by! 📍 Address: 244-3-1 Tentozan, Abashiri City, Hokkaido 🚎 Access: About 15 minutes by sightseeing bus from Abashiri Station 📞 Phone: 0152-43-5951 Opening Hours: May–October: 8:30 AM–6:00 PM November–April: 9:00 AM–4:30 PM Closed: Open year-round (New Year’s hours: 10:00 AM–3:00 PM) Admission Fee: Adults ¥990, High School Students ¥880, Elementary/Middle School Students ¥770 Parking: Available

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 As soon as we arrived in Abashiri City, we felt like we had reached the end of the world. Before boarding the icebreaker, we first went to the Tiandu Mountain Drift Ice Museum near the pier to experience the unique charm of the cold winter. The Drift Ice Experience Room is a major feature of the Drift Ice Museum. The indoor temperature is maintained at minus 15 degrees Celsius, allowing visitors to truly experience the cold winter of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk and feel its unique charm. The Drift Ice Museum also displays many cute marine creatures, including drift ice angels, balloon fish and sea slugs. What I am most looking forward to is the Tentosan Observatory on the Ryuhyo Museum, where you can have a 360-degree view of the magnificent scenery of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk and the Shiretoko Mountain Range, a World Natural Heritage Site in the distance. This spectacular scenery has not only been designated as a national cultural property, but has also become a lasting memory in the hearts of every visitor. Before leaving the Drift Ice Museum, don’t forget to buy the limited edition drift ice cream at the front desk snack bar. The sea salt caramel flavor is so tempting that you can’t help but keep eating it. 📸Attractions: Abashiri Tentosan Drift Ice Museum 📍Address: 244-3 Tentosan, Abashiri City, Hokkaido #JapanAttractions #JapanTravel #HokkaidoAttractions #HokkaidoTravel #Abashiri

I originally thought this was a very ordinary place, but it is definitely worth staying here for 1 to 2 hours to fully explore and experience it. There is a -15°C drift ice experience room in the museum, where we can touch real drift ice shipped from the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, but my hands were so cold that I couldn’t feel it, and it didn’t feel particularly cold to the touch. We also use a wet towel to shake it here. It will instantly freeze into an ice pop within 30 shakes. It's super fun. Here I also saw the drift ice angels and Pacific spiny lionfish that are unique to Hokkaido. They are both super cute and it really opened my eyes to see that there are such special creatures in the world. Go to the top of the building, there is a 360-degree observation deck called "Tiandu Mountain Observation Deck", where you can enjoy the endless snow scenery, which is really beautiful. Next, we will go to the sales department on the first floor. We must try the "drift ice cream" which is limited to the museum. It is salted caramel ice cream made with Okhotsk sea salt. This is the most delicious ice cream I have eaten in Hokkaido. #MarchGoodPlaces2025

I didn't go into the Okhotsk Ryuhyo Museum, I just went up to the rooftop Tentozan Observatory. It was so foggy at the Tentozan Observatory that I couldn't see anything 🙈. I could only take a photo on the 44th parallel north outside the museum. 📍Tentozan Observatory 245 Tentozan, Abashiri, Hokkaido 093-0044 Japan

From the Tentozan Observatory in the free zone, you can see the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, Lake Abashiri, and Notoro. The salted caramel flavored soft serve ice cream made with Okhotsk salt is very popular and delicious, so it's a dessert that you really should try. This is a recommended drift ice museum for sightseeing on the Abashiri drift ice.

Visited in February 2023 *Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum This exhibition hall is themed on drift ice and creatures in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. The drift ice experience room, which is kept at minus 15 degrees, has real drift ice on display😊 We were able to actually go in and touch it✨ The third floor is the Tentozan Observatory, where you can enjoy the magnificent scenery of the four seasons🙌 The view from Tentozan, overlooking the Sea of ​​Okhotsk and the Shiretoko Mountains, a World Heritage Site, is spectacular and has been designated as a national cultural asset "place of scenic beauty"😊 #Snowscape#Hokkaido #HokkaidoTrip #Tourism in Eastern Hokkaido #DriftIce #OkhotskDriftIceMuseum#PlaceOfScenicBeauty

During your self-driving trip to Hokkaido, when you come to the coast of Okhotsk, you might as well consider stopping at the Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum to have a salty and fragrant ice cream and enjoy the beautiful view from the top floor. The Okhotsk Drift Ice Museum has a space to experience the ice at minus 15 degrees Celsius and introduce drift ice creatures, but I think the most worthwhile thing is the observation deck on the top floor, overlooking the beautiful scenery of the coast. #New Year’s Good Place##JapanTravel #Hokkaido #Seaview

Nets in the Okhotsk Ice Museum When I came to the net, when the ice was not formed, the icebreaker couldnt sit naturally. It was a comfort to the Okhotsk Ice Museum. At the foot of Tiandu Mountain, the venue is not big, starting from the basement level. First go to the small theater to watch a film about drifting ice, use five screens to show the growth of drifting ice, sit too close and feel a little dizzy. Get out of the auditorium and show off the introduction of the science of ice formation. The magic in the biological sink is a small creature called "The Ice Angel", which is transparent, with a red part of the body and the head, in the water. It seems like a little angel flapping his wings as he wanders. In fact, this is a kind of unsealed conch, which usually lives in the low-temperature waters such as the Arctic Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and the Bering Sea. During the winter, there will be ice-skating in the Sea of Okhotsk, and in the spring, it will leave the coast with the drifting ice. Then came to the body of the ice body, and stored the natural drift ice in the room of minus 15 degrees. If you feel cold, you can rent a winter clothes, but in a short time, it is actually good. In the open-air observatory, you can enjoy the panoramic view of the Tiandu Mountain, but it is closed due to poor weather. On the second floor there is a restaurant and lounge, on the first floor is the reception and shops, recommending ice cream! Too taste, joined the sea salt of Okhotsk, blue is the natural pigment from seaweed, very special.
