-Shikisai-no-Oka | Hokkaido's Most Beautiful Rainbow Flower Carpet
Boasting 15 hectares of magnificent flower fields, resembling a seven-colored rainbow spread across the land, the rolling hills transform into a painter's palette, exuding a sense of tranquility and healing. From tulips dotting the slopes in April, to poppies and lupins blooming side by side in June, to lavender creating a purple sea in July, to sunflowers turning towards the sun and dahlias blooming freely in August, to autumn cherry blossoms, pansies, and wild cotton taking center stage in late August, and finally to salvia and snapdragons igniting the autumn colors in October, over 30 varieties of flowers bloom in succession, weaving a floral carpet that changes with the seasons. Giant scarecrows in the fields are endearing and add to the healing atmosphere. When winter arrives, the flower fields are covered in snow, transforming into a joyful snow park with snowmobiles, sleds, snow rafting, and other activities, unlocking Hokkaido's unique winter fun.
- White Beard Waterfall | A Gentle Whisper Hidden in the Mountains
The waterfall is named "White Beard Waterfall" because the water cascading down from the cracks in the rocks is as fine and long as an old man's silvery beard. The murmuring water carries the crisp air of the mountains, splashing against the rocks and creating tiny droplets that reflect the lush vegetation around it. It is tranquil and healing, as if nature is whispering gentle words in your ear.
