Hakodate

My long-held dream has finally come true! I never imagined the ferry could be so big! There weren't too many people on board. I booked a standard class cabin, and every room had plenty of space! I was able to get a good rest! It's incredibly good value for money! I highly recommend everyone to experience it!

A fantastic experience! 💙 The president and beautician were both very professional. We were able to choose our own kimono, obi, hair accessories, etc., and the beautician offered expert advice if we were unsure what to wear. 👍🏻 The clothing itself was incredibly detailed, and the way it was worn followed traditional methods. More importantly, there were also many options for men's clothing! I'm so happy my first kimono experience was so perfect! 😻

This trip to Hakodate's Mt. Ropeway was a bit of a disappointment due to the weather; the summit was shrouded in a light mist. However, it unexpectedly revealed a unique charm. The misty mountain scenery had a dreamlike atmosphere, making the entire city seem draped in a soft white veil, tranquil and mysterious. Sitting in the ropeway, slowly ascending, watching the city lights appear and disappear in the mist was particularly romantic. Although I couldn't see the breathtaking panoramic view of what's known as one of the "World's Three Great Night Views," this experience of being surrounded by mist offered a gentler impression of Hakodate. The air at the summit was fresh and slightly chilly. Although there weren't many tourists, everyone quietly appreciated the scenery before them, as if the mist was Hakodate's gentle greeting to travelers. This ropeway trip taught me that no matter the weather, if you pay attention, the scenery will always have its most captivating beauty.

Driver was very kind, I was suprised it was a lady driver. Telling us hours of stay acceptable in each destination. Though I realized that 10 hours was not enough to cover all destinations. We made it just in time.
