[2025 Biei Attraction] Travel Guide for Takushinkan (Updated Apr)

#WinterTravel Taksin-kan, a landscape photography gallery that opened in 1987 by redeveloping Chiyoda Elementary School, is a representative tourist attraction in Sapporo in winter. ☃️ Free admission, the large and thick birch trees standing nearby go well with the snow and make for great photos. Since heavy snow falls every day in winter, the combination of white birch trees and white snow is outstanding.🎄🎄 It's slippery, so crampons or non-slip shoes are essential It's a great place to take photos, so I recommend visiting on a tour. 📍Taksin-kan 📌 Takushin, Biei-cho, Kamikawa-gun ⏰ 10:00~17:00 💰 Free #Overseas travel #Taksin-kan #Sapporo travel #Sapporo

The corridor, which is about 250m long, shows beautiful scenery in each season. You can use it together with the photo gallery Takushinkan. In order to protect the nature of the birch forest, you cannot enter anywhere other than the corridor. It is a place where photos come out very attractively and is also popular as a photo spot from spring to winter. 👉Address Japan 〒071-0474 Hokkaido, Kamikawa District, Biei, 字拓進 #Biei #Takushinkan #BirchGallery #BieiTravel

#January travel support event Of course it's cold on snowy and windy days, but I didn't feel like it was much colder than the Korean winter. It seems like Korea was colder yesterday and today....ㅎㅎㅎ The underground passage from Sapporo Station to the Susukino downtown area was well-made, so it wasn't too cold when moving around (In fact, it was hot in the underground passage, so it was hard on days when I wore a lot of clothes) It's warm when you go into a cafe or restaurant, so I don't think you need to wear a lot of clothes because you're worried about being cold. Most people who are wrapped up in padding are tourists, and Japanese people wear light coats. However, on the day you go on the Biei Tour Make sure to bring gloves, a hat, winter boots, and a hot pack It's much colder than the city! The city is well-removed, so your shoes will rarely get wet, but if you go on a tour, the snow will pile up so much that you will get wet if you wear regular shoes. I wore boots, but it was deeper than I thought, so I almost got wet if I hadn't worn padded pants. It would be good to bring a small umbrella in case it snows a lot. When it snowed, it snowed so much that my head got wet. #SapporoTravel #BieiTour

#January travel support event What to prepare for Sapporo Biei Bus Tour The schedule departs around 8 am and arrives around 7-8 pm, so a large spare battery is essential! If you take pictures and videos, the battery will run out really quickly, so you must bring it with you. Also, be sure to bring motion sickness medicine, painkillers, digestive medicine, etc. Since it is a group tour, you have to move according to the schedule once you start, so you cannot return, so you must bring basic medicine. Winter boots and gloves are essential! Since there is a lot of snow, if you wear regular shoes, your shoes will get wet and you will have a hard time all day. Waterproof boots are essential, and if possible, waterproof gloves rather than fur gloves. Airpods are also essential because the round trip is long. Except for some areas of Furano, the internet was good, so I moved while watching Netflix. #SapporoTravel #BieTour

Shikisai no Oka Address: Japan 〒071-0473 Hokkaido, Kamikawa District, Biei, Shinsei, No. 3 Key Points: Similar scenery to the Christmas Tree In winter, they operate a sledding area, but it was not open during my visit due to insufficient snow. I only enjoyed the scenery. The buttered potatoes sold here are said to be delicious, so try them if you get the chance. Unfortunately, they were sold out when I visited...

🏡 Takushinkan 📮 Takushin, Biei-cho, Kamikawa-gun 071-0474 Hokkaido Takushinkan is a gallery famous for its beautiful photos, but the true value of Takushinkan lies in the birch forest surrounding it 🌲 It is still not a well-known place, so there are not many people, and you can take pictures in peace. Personally, I recommend going to Taksin Museum after seeing the birch forest rather than leaving after seeing Taksin Museum 🫶 That way, you won't be crossing paths with other people and you can see it more quietly ❄️ ✔️ It's a great place to take pictures with the birch trees in the background ✔️ and the lying-down shot(?) that you must take when you come to Sapporo 💗 In the case of Taksin Museum, you usually have plenty of time to stay, and since you have to take 100 lying-down shots to get one... Try out various poses at Taksin Museum and get the best shot of your life 📷 #snowscape #bieitour #biei #sapporo #sapporotrip #sapporo

#VisitHokkaido Takushinkan Photo Gallery – This gallery was opened in 1987 in Biei, Hokkaido, to showcase the work of world-famous photographer Shinzo Maeda, who once took photos here. The photos taken by Shinzo Maeda have inspired people to see the beauty of Biei’s four seasons, and have made the city a destination for those who want to take beautiful photos to this day. Shinzo’s son, Akira Maeda, has also inherited his father’s love of photography and has brought his photographs to exhibit at this gallery. 📷 The gallery is located on a scenic route called Patchwork Hills. When you come here, in addition to the photos you can see, just walk around to the back and you will find a shady forest park. There is a path lined with tall birch trees on both sides, making it a popular photo spot where everyone stops to take photos. 🚗 How to get there 🚲 This place is far from the bus stop and the train station, so you have to come by car or bicycle. There is free parking.

There is a gallery of Maeda Shinzo, and next to it is Taksin-kan, a birch forest path. The birch forest is not that big, so you can see it all in 10-20 minutes, but it is really memorable to go down the side road and step on the snow. And especially, I went up the hill and came down the path like a slide, which was really fun😆 📍 Taksin-kan Japan 〒071-0474 Hokkaido, Kamikawa District, Biei, 字拓進 #JapanTravel #SapporoTravel #BieiTour #BieiBusTour #Biei #Taksin-kan #Hokkaido

Taksinkan, where famous photographer Shinzo Maeda's photos are exhibited. It is said that Biei town would not have been this famous if it weren't for Shinzo Maeda, because his photos were so influential. In fact, tourists go straight to the birch forest path rather than the gallery to take photos, but since the inside is not very big, go in for a while and find out which photos made Biei so famous! 📍 Taksinkan Japan 〒071-0474 Hokkaido, Kamikawa District, Biei, 字拓進 #JapanTravel #SapporoTravel #BieiTour #BieiBusTour #Biei #Taksinkan #Hokkaido

Everyone says that the flower of Biei Tour is the Christmas tree, but in fact, the number one in my heart was Taksin-kan🪵☃️ There was something really, really beautiful as I walked through the white birch forest path🥹 It was especially nice here because I was given a lot of time to go around and see things. It was a place that was so good that I was really looking forward to the summer scenery☺️ 📍 Taksin-kan Japan 〒071-0474 Hokkaido, Kamikawa District, Biei, 字拓進 #JapanTravel #SapporoTravel #BieiTour #BiebusTour #Biei #TaksinKan #Hokkaido
