    Hokkaido Kushiro-shi Shunkodai 1-7
    Kushiro City Museum celebrated its 60th anniversary in July 2016. The Museum is focused mainly on themes relating to Kushiro, and it makes effective use of three-dimensional displays that incorporate surround sound to create a multisensory experience for visitors. The Dio-Nature-Dome, with its artificial sky, is a must-see. To reach the Museum from JR Kushiro Station by bus takes around 15 minutes; get off at the “Shiritsu Byoin” bus stop, and the Museum is five minutes’ walk away.

    The exhibits in this museum do a great job of explaining the local history. While most of the exhibits are self explanatory, very few exhibit descriptions are in both English & Japanese.

    Hokkaido Kushiroshi Akanchoushimoninishibetsu 11
    This zoo is approximately 10 minutes by car from Kushiro Airport. In addition to exhibiting popular animals such as polar bears, Amur (Siberian) tigers, alpaca and Japanese macaques, it also has a zone featuring precious animals from Hokkaido such as Japanese cranes, Hokkaido brown bears, and Japanese flying squirrels, and visitors can observe the animals relaxed and carefree surrounded by beautiful nature. “Pakupaku Time” where visitors can watch animals eating is held every day. Special events such as the Sled Riding Tournament and Treasure Hunt are planned in the winter.

    The zoo is a great value, only costing about 4 USD. It has a wide range of animals, all within a convient walk. We went during a Monday and there was a lot of staff working there. They also have...

    Hokkaido Kushiroshi Saiwaichou 4-1-5
    Located around 15 minutes' walk from JR Kushiro Station in the waterfront area in Kushiro's city center, Kushiro Art Museum is an important center for culture and the arts in the Kushiro / Nemuro region. The main focus of the museum's collections and exhibits-which include everything from Nihonga paintings, oil paintings, woodblock prints and photographs to three-dimensional sculptures-is on works based on natural themes, and works that are connected to the Kushiro / Nemuro region. The Arts Hall-which is a combined concert hall and lecture hall-is used for holding film showings, museum seminars, lectures to accompany special exhibitions, etc. Workshops and experiential activities are also held in the Free Art Room.

    芸術館とありますが、内容的には一般的な美術館に近いです。このエリアに関連した人物などの作品が展示されています、あまり存じ上げる方は正直少なかったので詳しい人じゃないとじっくりとは楽しめないかもしれません。

    Hokkaido Akkeshi-gun Akkeshicho Sannushi 66
    This observation center is about one hour's drive from Kushiro Airport, the eastern Hokkaido gateway from the sky. It works on conservation research for the flora and fauna of the Lake Akkeshi Bekanbeushi Shitsugen, a Ramsar Convention registered wetland. The first floor shows videos of tancho red-capped crane lifestyles from the egg through raising to help make the wetland more familiar. To protect cranes from injury after colliding with canoes they also limit and control the canoeing season. To make sure you don't accidently enter the crane's regular nesting grounds, it's best to stop by the observation center to check current information.

    自然いっぱいの厚岸には多くの野鳥が生息しています。季節になると渡り鳥も姿を見せます。中でも水鳥が豊富で観察館からすぐの場所でバードウォッチングすることが可能です。

    Kushiro Shitsugen Art Museum preserves and displays paintings by Eisho Sasaki, the “Painter of the Wetlands,” as well as materials relating to Mr. Sasaki and items that formerly belonged to him. The Museum is located near Akan International Crane Center, so visitors can also view Japanese Red-crowned Cranes while they are here. Eisho Sasaki was famous for his impressionistic paintings of Eastern Hokkaido scenes. To get to Kushiro Shitsugen Art Museum from Tancho Kushiro Airport, take the Akan Bus service and get off at the “Tancho no Sato” bus stop; the journey takes around 16 minutes.

    釧路市立美術館は、釧路市生涯学習センターの３階にある小さ目の美術館です。今回訪れた３月には、「花の季節」と題したコレクション展が開催されていました。 「花」をテーマにした絵画を見て回っていましたが、その中に、鎌田義裕の作品を見つけました。彼は釧路出身の日本画家で、私の同級生だったんです。彼の「蒲桜」という作品は、幻想的で、素敵でした。

    A very good ranger helped with identifying bird calls. It makes such a difference if the person working has good English. A great center.

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.
