Otaru Music Box Hall Main Building is a store that I think you must visit when shopping on the Otaru Canal in Hokkaido. It is the largest music box specialty store in Japan. The main building has about 3,400 kinds of music box products and more than 25,000 pieces. The space is huge and even has a Totoro corridor and a sushi music box. There are many exquisite little things that really make me feel the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship. If you like antiques, you can also visit the nearby "Otaru Music Box Hall 2 Antique Museum". Otaru Music Box Hall is located some distance away from the Otaru Canal. It takes about 20 minutes to walk 1.6 kilometers. It is a leisurely walk in spring and summer. There is also Sakai-machi Street shopping street along the way. It was already dark at around five o'clock in the afternoon, but there were still many tourists visiting the Otaru Music Box Hall. I just don’t know why the lights should be green. I feel that the dim lights are more elegant. Outside is the world's first steam clock made by Canadian clock master Raymond Saunders. It is 5.5 meters high, 1 meter wide, and weighs 1.5 tons. Every 15 minutes, the steam power generated by the boiler causes the five whistles above to play a five-note melody, which is quite special. Upon entering the museum, we found that this ancient wooden warehouse was quite open and filled with a dazzling array of music box products. And this building has three floors. The first floor is mostly music box products, the second floor has a Totoro corridor and other handicrafts, and the third floor can customize music boxes. If you like antiques, you can also visit the nearby "Otaru Music Box Hall 2 Antique Museum". #100 Ways to Travel #AugustGood Place2024 # Sign up to be a hotel trial sleeper in August #sapporoattractions #hokkaido

This is the Otaru Music Box Museum that I visited during my winter trip to Sapporo. I didn't know much about music boxes, so I was really surprised. There were various kinds of music boxes at the Otaru Music Box Museum, and each character and each music box had a different song, so it was fun to listen to them in turns. At first, I didn't have high expectations, but I was so absorbed that it took longer than I thought to enjoy them. In particular, I liked the cat music box that symbolizes Japan, and the ones that combined picture frames and music boxes, so I bought them as souvenirs. I think I'll be able to remember them for a long time if I put my travel photos in them! #JapanTravel #HotPlace #OtaruMusicBoxMuseum #MusicBoxMuseum #SouvenirShop #SapporoTravel #PleaseWinter #Couples

There is a town called Otaru in Sapporo, Hokkaido~ Those who have been to Hokkaido probably all know this, but there is a fun attraction called the Orgeldang!
