As you take in the views from the bus window, enjoy the elevated perspective of sights such as “Odori Park,” the urban park stretching east to west through central Sapporo; the “Former Hokkaido Government Office,” standing quietly among the trees; the “Toyohira River,” which flows through central Sapporo and also serves as a venue for fireworks displays in summer, beloved by local residents; and “Sapporo Dome,” with its beautiful exterior and silver curved dome. Okurayama Ski Jump Stadium is located on the eastern slope of Mt. Okurayama, at an altitude of 307 m, and remains an important venue for international ski jumping competitions.

The view from the ski jump takeoff point down toward the 145.0 m jump record (the longest distance) is truly awe-inspiring! Be sure to witness this breathtaking sight with your own eyes. Sapporo Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill is a hill featuring the famous statue of Dr. Clark, who raises his right hand and points into the distance. In summer, sheep leisurely graze on the lush green grass, while the Sapporo cityscape stretches out in the distance, creating a quintessential Hokkaido landscape. Why not pose alongside the statue of Dr. Clark in the same stance, embrace grand aspirations, and take a beautiful commemorative photo!
