    Hokkaido Otaru-shi Aioicho 3-1
    A Shinto shrine located on a hill in the center of Otaru City with a sweeping view of downtown Otaru and Otaru Port. On the grounds, visitors can find a monument inscribed with a poem by Takuboku Ishikawa. Also a renowned cherry blossom viewing destination, in spring the shrine bustles with visitors. The main shrine and front shrine buildings have been designated Historic Structures by Otaru City.

    Climbed up the mountain to Suitengu for Cherry Blossom. Still beautiful as before, enjoy nice sea view and peacefulness there.

    Hokkaido Otaru-shi Suminoe 2-chome 5-1

    1868年に住吉大神を勧請して創建され他神社です。国道5号線に面して南小樽駅から徒歩8分程です。住吉神社の鎮座150年の記念事業で参道などは綺麗に整備されました。緩い坂道をのぼって一の鳥居、二の鳥居、三の鳥居、御社殿と一直線上にあります。参拝客も少なく、心静かにお参りできました。

    Hokkaido Otaru Shimizucho 9-26

    旧日本郵船小樽支店裏側の、手宮仲通りを真っ直ぐ進んだ先にある、急勾配な通称「薬師神社の坂」の上り口付近に鎮座しています。 明治中頃北海道に渡った山形県出身の修験者が小樽に居住して、同じように道外からやってきて港で働く労働者や、地域住民の病を救うために創建し、社名のとおりに医薬の神様が祀られ、社の一角に漢方薬局がある珍しい神社です。 お参りしていると、宮司さんらしき人が出てこられ、由緒などを伺うこと...

Hokkaido Areas

around-area-map

Not just a prefecture but an island of its own, Hokkaido is the most northerly prefecture and island of the Japanese archipelago. Arriving in Hokkaido, which is rural and bursting with breathtaking nature, means entering a world where vast national parks, towering mountains, and natural hot springs can be found at every turn. Come December, these natural splendors freeze over and morph into a winter wonderland.
