Sapporo

Located in the heart of Hokkaido, Sapporo is the third largest city in Japan and the fifth most populous. The estimated population of this country is around two million people. As one of the youngest cities in the nation, Sapporo is also one of the nation's most sought-after tourist destinations. In 1972 they hosted the Olympic Games, contributing greatly to the modernization of its relatively recent infrastructure. A city rich in atmosphere rather than tradition, the attraction of the territory is mainly due to its environment. Immersed in the alluvial plain of the Ishikari, it is bordered on one side by the virgin forest of Nopporo and on the other by the Moiwa Maruyama mountains. Crossed by the Toyohira River, the country is not far from the sea. The city is predominantly immersed in greenery, with immense parks and gardens. Odori Park, with its fountains, sculptures and 32 different species of trees, is truly enchanting. It is also the scene of many spectacular events, including the Snow Festival. Every year in early February, the festival showcases snow sculptures and ice statues, often of impressive size. It can be a great time for a holiday in Sapporo, provided you can withstand cold and snowy winters. Conversely, summers are hot and humid. Sapporo is also a Japanese beer brand whose variety \"Sapporo Classic\" is not available outside the island of Hokkaido. Tastings take place in the gardens of the Beer Museum. The first brewery in Japan was built in 1876. The Susukino district is equipped with around 4,500 restaurants, bars, cabarets and nightclubs. It is also the most important area of the entire city. It includes, among others, the re Xmu, a particularly popular nightclub, spread over three floors with a spectacular setting.
