Hitsujigaoka Observatory where you can feel the earth of Hokkaido✨ I was able to see the statue of Dr. Clark🎓, known for the famous line from "BOYS BE AMBITIOUS", and my heart was filled with joy to be able to visit a famous tourist spot in Hokkaido🥹🤍 There is a shop on the hill, and the Shiroi Koibito ice cream is made with milk from a farm in Hokkaido, so it was very rich and delicious! #Hokkaido #HokkaidoTrip #HokkaidoTourism #HokkaidoGourmet #HitsujigaokaObservatory #Dr.ClarkStatue #ClarkStatue #ShiroiKoiTo

#Japan Attractions Hokkaido was once a barren land where crops could not survive. The advanced knowledge brought by Dr. Clark accelerated the development of agriculture. "Young man, be ambitious!" This is Dr. Clark's message to the future on the observatory. The tour guide told us that the direction his right hand was pointing to was "the eternal truth on the other side of the world." From here you can overlook the city of Sapporo and see sheep roaming freely on the vast grassland. The sight of flowers blooming in spring is even more fascinating. On clear days, you can even see the rolling mountains on the other side of the Ishikari Plain. The observation deck also has the "Sapporo Snow Festival Museum" which displays snow sculpture models. Hokkaido covered with ice and snow is even more charming. There are many sheep living in the sheep house next to it, and there is a wool shearing experience 🤗🤗 This place is far from the center of Sapporo, and you need to change buses. It is suitable for those who stay in Sapporo for a long time and want to see the surrounding scenery.

Late October is the season for autumn leaves in Sapporo, Hokkaido. The colorful fallen leaves on the vast green lawns create a beautiful natural landscape. If the weather had been good, you might have been able to see sheep grazing. When you think of Hokkaido, corn and potatoes are a must-try, so be sure to try them. #AutumnTravel #SapporoTourism #Gourmet #HitsujigaokaObservatory

\\Tourist Spots// Sapporo Hitsujigaoka Observatory is a beautiful observation deck that can be reached in about 40 minutes from Sapporo Station.

# Hitsujigaoka Observatory #Clark Statue #Sapporo Hitsujigaoka Observatory is a popular spot around Sapporo. Many people have probably seen it on TV or the Internet, and it is where the Clark statue is located. I was surprised when I found out that there was an admission fee due to my lack of research (530 yen for adults), but the spectacular Clark statue, the view of downtown Sapporo beyond it (although it was raining that day so it was hard to see), materials on the Snow Festival, a history museum, and a great selection of souvenir shops make it well worth the admission fee. There is also a parking lot, so if you come to Sapporo, be sure to stop by! #Amazing view

This is a spot that can only be reached by car. It is actually a farm commemorating the doctor. It is very spacious and good for taking photos. The ticket is about NT$150. You can play in the snow and experience different facilities for an unlimited time. We made snowmen and had snowball fights. The most important thing is to lie in the snow. The snow angel is a must-do for Taiwanese people. It is really a good spot for taking photos during the itinerary. #Hokkaido #Hitsujigaoka Observatory 🕰️Business hours: 0900-1700 📍Address: 1 Hitsujigaoka, Toyohira Ward, Sapporo, Hokkaido 062-0045 Japan

We went on a 3-night, 4-day trip to Hokkaido to coincide with my children's autumn break. Since we were using New Chitose Airport and didn't rent a car, we planned to focus our trip on Sapporo and Otaru. If we were in Sapporo, we had to visit Dr. Clark, so we went to Hitsujigaoka Observatory and struck the customary pose. The weather was nice and we were able to take beautiful photos of the blue sky. If you take the subway from Sapporo Station and are not too far from the nearest station, this is recommended if you want to enjoy nature close to the city. #FuriTabi #Hokkaido #HokkaidoTrip #HokkaidoTourism #Sapporo #SapporoTourism #SapporoTrip #HitsujigaokaObservatory #ClarkStatue #Dr.Clark #Clark

I went to see the statue of Dr. Clark in Hokkaido! Dr. Clark is famous, but he only stayed in Japan for about 8 months, which is surprisingly short lol

🐑It takes about 30 minutes by car and then bus from downtown Odori. It is worth coming. There are not many tourists, most of them go to the venue which can be reached by tram. 🐑The view here is very broad, you can see real sheep🐑 and a large grassland, which makes you feel good. 🐑There is also an exhibition hall inside, and the artworks on display have not changed much. What I saw today is the same as what I saw three years ago. 🐑The ticket price is 600 yen. Everyone wants to take a photo with the statue. Many people are queuing, but they don’t have to wait for long. #Sapporo Attractions #Sapporo Attractions
