Hokkaido Trip (day 4)

Day 4 is mostly Sapporo (札幌) City Tour.
Sapporo is the 5th largest city in Japan and the capital of Hokkaido.
The city hosted 1972 Winter Olympics, first ever held in Asia.

Morning jog around Odori Park (大通公园) to lose out some fats.
Famous landmark here is Sapporo TV’s Tower


Visited Sapporo Beer factory, they said is the best beer in Japan.
I guess I enjoy the pretty instructor more... :P

Hokkaido’s Former Government Building


Then it was 4 hours of crazy shopping spree at Sapporo JR Station!! *boh lat*
The building itself housed several shopping malls like Stellar Place, Daimaru Sapporo branch, etc. It was a nightmare for me! I could easily survive exploring any shopping malls in Malaysia, but I sesat jalan 3 times trying to find my way back from toilet, yes the place is so complicated!!


Did not shop much, instead we went up to the Sapporo Tower (tallest building in Sapporo, 173 m, 38F) and just sit there...

Toilet with a scenic view, so relieved... :P

Went on sitting again in Starbucks.
About 10bucks per latte, price seems reasonable... :)


Some night walk around the hotel


Late night dessert (ice cream with a thick milky taste, quite good!)

Late night snack just besides the hotel
