It’s a lovely Saturday morning and you are just arriving at Furano Station. Welcome to to one of the most picturesque towns in Hokkaido! Furano is the perfect place to see one of Hokkaido’s great drawing cards – sweeping fields of lavender which make you feel like you’re experiencing something otherworldly. For the best experience we recommend Heading over to Farm Tomita where you can spend the morning, and most of the early afternoon having a leisurely stroll around the grounds and enjoying the natural beauty the farm has to offer.
