Otaru the “Romantic City”

Posted in Dates, Hokkaido, Otaru, Travel, Winter by niqmanliyana on October 22, 2009

I read about this city from the internet before we went to Hokkaido . Furthermore, I heard about Otaru from friends and they said “you will love this place so much”, so off we went to Otaru from Sapporo,hehe. It took about 30minutes by train to reach Otaru from Sapporo city.

This is a must go place in Otaru, (as written everywhere :p ) Otaru Canal, turned out nothing much to be seen :(   To those who are planning to go to Otaru Canal, I think you will love the view during night time with all the lighting n the old buildings along the canal.

The very famous Otaru Canal

In Otaru, you can see many Western-Style old buildings from the late Meiji period.
