Hokkaido is a place that makes people fall in love at first sight and never get tired of it. It is so beautiful all year round, with cherry blossoms in spring, maples in autumn, lavender in summer, and snow in winter. When you come here, you will bring different surprises. When you are tired of the high pressure and fast pace of the metropolis, you will run here to replenish energy for your body and mind.

Because of the special climate of Hokkaido, the snow here is a top-grade powdery snow that contains almost no moisture. It is crystal clear, soft and fluffy, falling generously, and the thick accumulation makes people feel happy when they see it. No wonder people say: There is a kind of snow in the world called ‘Snow in Hokkaido.

It is very pleasant to drink a cup of hot coffee in the cold winter. What is more comfortable than this is to drink coffee while enjoying the snow in a cute cafe in Hokkaido.

I have to say that a small place in Hokkaido has many world-class beautiful scenery, such as the night view seen at a specific lookout point.

The night view of Tengu Mountain, the night view of Hakodate Mountain, and the night view of Maiyaki Mountain are known as the three major night view of Hokkaido. However, relatively speaking, the scenery of the latter two is much richer and more beautiful.

The night view of Hakodate Mountain and the night view of Hong Kong Island, and the night view of Napoli in Italy are known as the "three major night view of the world". There is a unique fan-shaped terrain here, and the natural hyperbolic lines are very amazing. I heard that in the latest selection, the night view of Hakodate Mountain has fallen to fourth place, and the night view of Maiyaki Mountain in Sapporo has become the newest and most beautiful night view top 3.

I went to Morisu, took the world's first forest experience cable car, and walked through the snow forest up the mountain. Before I left the car, everyone exclaimed outside.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking up at the starry sky, it makes people unable to tell which one is the Milky Way above the head and under the feet. The observation deck has a starry sky movie with a dome curtain, and a bell of happiness, ringing it and listening to the sound of happiness.

There are many lakes, and because they are in a volcanic activity zone, the lake water here usually does not freeze all year round, forming many strange and beautiful scenes.

Lake Ahan is a landslide lake formed by the eruption of a volcano. The clear blue lake water and the snow-covered volcanoes on the lakeside form an elegant and charming picture. By the lake is the indigenous village, the Ainu folk village. The Ainu people are an ancient ethnic minority in Japan with a small population. The folk village is a small street, but there are various wood carvings and special decorations, which is quite interesting to walk around.

If you want to try your luck when you come to Mozhou Lake, you may not be able to see the whole picture of the lake. Because the geothermal waters do not freeze all year round, the entire lake is shrouded in clouds on weekdays, but it has a unique charm. Johnson was lucky to see it reveal its appearance, which was so beautiful.

The sulfur hot spring heat comes out from the cracks of the stones by the lake. Whenever you dig it on the beach, a hot spring comes out. Take a hot spring foot bath, eat a hot spring egg, hold a cup of hot drink in your hand, and your whole body becomes warm.

I am easily fascinated by things that have a sense of the times and feelings. Some small stations in Hokkaido are enough to satisfy my obsession.

The Patriotic Station and Happiness Station, which were abandoned with the abandoned line of the Guangwei Line, are two train stations more than ten kilometers apart, meaning to travel from the country of love to happiness, so many couples will come here to hang paper with their wishes written on them.

After hanging a card with your wishes written on it, don’t forget to knock on the happiness bell at the station, as if opening the door to happiness.

Beibin Station, which was once crowded but gradually forgotten, although unattended, has a cafe with a history of more than 90 years. The seats were arranged according to the environment in the carriage at that time, and many of the tools of the platform staff were also placed inside, which was very, very feel.

There are only two trains passing by a day. Next to the station is a hot spring foot bath, which is free for travelers to relax at any time. Inside the station is a restaurant built in 1936, which is rarely visited by, but the boss still meticulously cooks the famous stewed beef rice.

At the end of January every year, after the water from Heilongjiang flows into the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, freshwater becomes ice on the sea surface because freshwater is lighter than sea water and is more likely to freeze. Then it drifts south along the ocean currents to become flowing ice. During its heyday, these flowing ices could cover 80% of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. They were blocked by the coastline when they walked around the net. They gathered together very spectacularly and were the only place where you can see flowing ice except the North and South Poles.

Passing by Liubing, I finally realized my dream this year. I was walking directly on Liubing on the Liubing ice boat, and I could also see polar animals on the ice surface. It was a very special experience.

This place is surrounded by cold sea water, and fish living in the surrounding waters accumulate a lot of fat in their bodies in order to resist the low temperature. In winter, the flowing ice floating from the Sea of ​​Okhotsk contains rich nutrients, causing a surge in plankton. This means that the fish that feed on this eats these nutrients, making the meat of Hokkaido's fishery products both delicious and rich in nutrients.

The fishery products captured by each fishing ground will be transported to the market of the fishing port, and then sent to the markets in various regions for sale. The base in Hokkaido is located in the Sapporo City Central Wholesale Market. The transportation process is short and the number of times of transfer is small. The freshness of the seafood and food holy place will naturally be higher. The off-site market for seafood and food is also located here.

You must taste the so-called three treasures in person: salmon are born in rivers, swim to the sea during their growth period, and finally return to their hometown to lay eggs in the native river, and continue to breed the next generation. In Hokkaido, salmon will be selected to fish before they return to their hometown to lay eggs. September to October is the peak season for fishing. At this time, every household in Hokkaido will add the most suitable autumn salmon to the dishes.

Salmon fished from May to August are called sausages, meaning that this is a group of salmons that have made the wrong time to swim to Hokkaido. However, although the time is wrong, the deliciousness is not wrong.

How to cook seafood is the most delicious? In fact, just ask the fishermen who have been working in the sea for many years. The local marble hunting pot in Hokkaido is the delicious dish that fishermen who used to fish salmon in the Ishikatsu area to reward themselves after work.

The method is to slice the salmon, throw it into the fish bones and cook the soup, then add tofu and karibanana and other ingredients, and finally season the Haomaijia rice with miso. Before tasting, add rich cream and pepper to add more flavor.

Another famous local dish, Qiangqiang roast, is to steam sliced ​​salmon, kariban, onion, lion Tang green pepper, etc. in a pottery pot, and then use miso sauce to enhance the flavor. Let the salmon and vegetables mix the umami flavor together to make it a refreshing and nutritious fisherman's dish.
