Hokkaido, the northern island of Japan, is renowned
for its beautiful scenery. Its capital city, Sapporo, is 1 hour 30
minutes by air from Tokyo or 1 hour 50 minutes from Osaka.
In 1972 the Winter Olympics was held here. The city and its suburbs offer many attractions such as Ohkurayama Jump Hill, Sapporo Beer Garden and Museum and numerous hot springs. The autumn leaves are at their best in October. |
