It is also an important historical building designated as a national treasure by the Japanese government and a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 1994. Kinkaku-ji Temple is a World Cultural Heritage Site and its official name is Rokuon-ji Temple. ] Transportation: Take bus 101, 102, 204, or 205 from the bus terminal in front of Kyoto Station and get off at Kinkaku-ji Temple.

Tickets: 500 yen for adults, 300 yen for children Opening hours: 9am-5pm The tickets for Kinkakuji Temple are like talismans, which are very unique. It is said that it is not easy to see the snow scene of Kinkakuji Temple. Yunluo and An Chuyu were really lucky to see it for the first time. Today is still during the New Year period, and there are many people in Kinkakuji Temple. It is not easy to take a photo without people.

You have to wait for 5-10 minutes to squeeze in and take pictures. After visiting Kinkakuji Temple that day, we lined up and slowly moved out for more than 20 minutes before we could walk out. The golden layer on the outside of Kinkakuji Temple is made of real gold foil, not just paint. The weather is good, and Kinkakuji Temple looks good everywhere. After leaving Kinkakuji Temple, Yunluo and An Chuyu took a bus to the Kyoto people's market - Nishiki Market.

This is where Kyoto locals come to buy things. [Nishiki Market (Japanese: にしきいちば) is a shopping street located in the middle of Nishiki Koji Street, Nakaderamachi Street and Takakura Street in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto. Most of the shops along the street sell fresh ingredients such as fish and Kyoto vegetables, or processed foods such as dried goods and pickles, and there are many old shops.

Many Kyoto-specific ingredients can be purchased here, so it is also known as Kyoto's kitchen. According to the classification of the Small and Medium Enterprises Agency, Nishiki Market is a super-wide-area shopping street. In addition to local residents, Nishiki Market has also become a must-see place for tourists visiting Kyoto, along with the nearby Shin-Kyogoku Shopping Street and Teramachi-Kyogoku Shopping Street.

There are also many restaurants and hotels that buy ingredients here. ] Transportation: Get off at Hankyu Karasuma Station or Shijo Station on the subway, and walk east along Shijo Street for about 3 minutes. There are many snacks in Nishiki Market. You can walk and look at them, and buy and try the ones that are suitable. They all taste good~ After leaving Nishiki Market.

Yunluo and An Chuyu started shopping. They bought souvenirs, electrical appliances, and during the New Year, shopping malls basically had 30% to 50% discounts on everything. There were also items that were all priced at 1,000 yen. It was easy to go bankrupt when you come to Japan. After shopping, Yunluo and An Chuyu went to the supermarket to buy something to eat in their room. Then they rested.

Many people recommend Rakuten, Jalan, and Japanesean, but Yunluo thinks their websites are not good-looking (I am just willful), so I don't like them. Yunluo basically booked on agoda and booking, and some of them were directly booked by email and phone, which will be discussed in detail below.

The transportation of Hotel Keihan Osaka Kyobashi is very convenient. There is a JR station downstairs, which is very convenient for going to Kyoto Nara, USJ, etc., and there is a large department store. It is very convenient for shopping and eating. The hotel is very clean and the staff is very friendly, but their English level is a little weaker than other places.

Basically, you can ask them any questions you have. The room is moderate and clean. It has everything you need. The shower gel and shampoo are all from Pola. And the laundry is free. 2. Best Western Hotel Fino Sapporo. I have been eyeing this hotel for a long time. The location is very good, only 5-7 minutes walk from Sapporo Station. The staff is very service-oriented. The breakfast is delicious.

The restaurant is on the top floor, and you can enjoy the view while having breakfast. The room is relatively large and clean, and there is a handwritten weather forecast in the lobby every day. There is a charge for washing and drying clothes, and you need to ask the staff for the details. It is next to Hokkaido University, and there is a restaurant downstairs. If you don't want to go out to eat, you can go downstairs directly.

The taste seems to be good and there are often many people. 3. Hakodate Blue Sky Hostel This is the only B&B on this trip. It is also what Yunluo has been looking forward to for a long time. After staying here, I know why it can get such a high score! It is a 3-minute walk from Hakodate Station to the B&B. The proprietress is 70 years old, but looks like 50 years old.

Her mother is 90 years old. The proprietress can communicate in English, but not very well. She is super nice! The B&B is really super clean. The cleaners are a few old ladies, who are very kind. The room is on the second floor, there is no elevator, all are Japanese tatami, the room is smaller, but it has everything it should have. But there is no toilet in the room.

If you want to use the toilet or take a shower, you have to go to the public bathroom on the first or second floor. If you mind this, don't stay here. You can book a room through booking. Yunluo called to book. Someone just canceled and Yunluo got the last room. Super lucky! There is a 7-11 across the street, which is very convenient for shopping and withdrawing money.

Washing clothes at the B&B costs 100 yen. Yunluo and An Chuyu wanted to go out and play, so the landlady said that it was okay for them to go out, and Yunluo would help them hang the clothes after washing. However, the washing machine cannot be used after 9 pm, for fear of disturbing other people's rest. Breakfast is not provided here, but it is only a 5-10 minute walk from Hakodate Morning Market.

Just walk over and eat. When Yunluo and An Chuyu went out in the morning, the proprietress rushed out and gave Yunluo and An Chuyu two cans of Hokkaido coffee. She delivered them to the door every time they went out. When they left, she watched Yunluo and An Chuyu pull their luggage to the corner before leaving. It really felt like home!

.Ginza Capital Hotel (New Building) There are no photos for this one, but there are small pictures on the website. It is a standard business hotel. Ladies can get small gifts, such as rubber bands and cotton pads. There is a restaurant downstairs, and free coffee in the morning. It takes about 10-15 minutes to walk to Ginza. There are many Japanese-style shops on the way where you can eat.

The room is relatively small, but also very clean. You can buy a one-day ticket at the front desk, and the staff will help answer many questions. The point is! It is very close to Tsukiji Market! It takes about 5-10 minutes to get there! Very convenient! There is a subway entrance downstairs, and transportation is also very convenient. There is also a free shuttle bus to Tokyo Station. There is a convenience store downstairs.

You can buy food and daily necessities. 5. It was a coincidence that I was able to book this hotel in Hatchobori, Tokyo. Originally, 99% of the rooms in Tokyo were booked, and the remaining 1% were capsule hotels. Yunluo thought it would be sad to spend the New Year in a capsule hotel, so he searched for hotels with vacancies and finally found this one.

But I had never heard of the name on the website, so I was not sure whether I should book it. After struggling for a long time, I finally booked it. At least I had a place to stay. Later I checked and found that the ratings were basically 8.8-9 points, and the reviews were very high! So I was lucky! Dormyinn is a very famous hotel chain in Japan. I found it was really good after staying there.

There is free tea and coffee at the front desk. The room is big and clean. The most important thing is that there is a free hot spring! And the hot spring is very complete, with sauna, hot spring, and bath! After the hot spring, there is a full set of pola facial cleanser, lotion, and toner, which you can use at will! You can also wash clothes for free.

The breakfast here is also super good. I will post the pictures when I write about Tokyo. Next time I go to Japan, hotels under Dormyinn will be among Yunluo's top choices. There will be a free shuttle bus to Tokyo Station every day. 6. Sakura Kyo Machiya Ryokan This is the most expensive room I stayed in on this trip.

The price is a bit high, which is understandable. When you come to Kyoto, you must stay in the most traditional Japanese townhouse. Yunluo has been looking for this one for a long time and it is cost-effective. The staff speaks very good English, probably because there are many foreigners living here. You can buy a Kyoto one-day bus ticket at the front desk. The room is very clean and large, and there are Japanese yukatas to wear.

The shower gel and shampoo are all from Shiseido. You can also use the kitchenware for free, and you can buy things and cook them in the room. You can also book a series of Japanese experiences such as tea ceremony. It is about 15 minutes away from Kyoto Station, but there is a bus stop at the door, so it is very convenient to take the bus. Opposite is Nishi Honganji, which is also one of the famous attractions in Kyoto.

There is a convenience store downstairs where you can buy food and daily necessities. The breakfast is delicious, but you need to pay for it separately. I still recommend it, it's a very good experience. 7. Kyoto Hokke Club Hotel. The reason for booking this hotel is that it is just opposite Kyoto Station. Yunluo and An's last day of meeting was a morning flight.

It is very close to the airport bus station. Because the front desk is on the second floor, you have to take the escalator to go up. As soon as you go up, the front desk staff will bow and greet you. If you are a lady, you can get a free facial mask, rubber band and other small gifts. The room is relatively small, but it is still very clean. After cleaning every day, there will be a thousand paper cranes on the table.

There is a restaurant downstairs, as well as a Uji Matcha branch. It only takes 3 minutes to walk to Kyoto Station, which is super convenient for shopping. Next to it is Kyoto Tower. There is also a Kyoto bus station downstairs, so transportation is super convenient. Because Yunluo didn't have time to send postcards on the last day of my stay, I asked the staff to help Yunluo send them in advance. Just give them the postcards when you check out.

The people are super nice! I heard that Furano and Biei, which are famous for their sea of ​​flowers, are not worth seeing in this season. I hope those guides are not deceiving, so I gave up. It is worth noting that Hokkaido does not have many traditional Japanese buildings, which is different from Kyoto on the main island. Don't hold such expectations. Sapporo Sapporo, transportation hub center, shopping center.

The largest comprehensive city in Hokkaido. The most exciting part is around JR Sapporo Station. Going south from JR Sapporo Station to the section before Nakajima Park, it is quite prosperous, especially when you reach Tanukikoji Shopping Street, which can basically meet your shopping needs. There is also an Odori Park in between, and the night view nearby is good.

There is a TV tower that looks like the Eiffel Tower, which is suitable for walking around at night. If you want to stay, this area is recommended, but it is not easy to book. It takes about 15-20 minutes to walk from JR Sapporo Station to Tanukikoji, which is not far, so you can take a walk. Near Nakajima Park, you will see many stores like the following on the street, with many beautiful photos hanging inside.

I really don't understand. Someone in the universal circle of friends pointed out that this is a free escort agency. Sophie said that if Yunluo passed by alone, she would definitely be pulled in. How could she be pulled in? Yunluo would definitely...take the initiative to go in! (Free escort agency-free escort agency) In addition, it is near Nakajima Park.

There is a prosperous area. Don't worry about not having food at night! Because it is very lively at night. The streets are full of office workers who come out to eat after overtime. Some alleys are full of ramen restaurants. Men who have worked overtime shuttle between them to choose one and chat with their colleagues. This is a representative phenomenon of Japanese culture. Pick one and enter.

Choose the type of food you want to eat on a machine similar to a vending machine and insert the coin. Just hand the printed receipt to the chef. In addition to karaoke bars soliciting customers, there are also many gigolos standing on the street. When the girls approach, they will kindly hand over their small business cards. Nowadays, women also have some rights. Don’t you think so?

(This paragraph is written by sohpie, haha) (Ramen Alley) (Want to eat ramen? Automatic coin-operated) Hokkaido University is located northwest of JR Sapporo Station, within a 10-minute walk, and is relatively quiet. (Interior view of the road to Hokkaido University) If you use Sapporo as a transportation point in and out of Hokkaido.

You can go shopping at the end. -If you want to buy big brands, you can go to a big mall. There is a Daimaru Department Store next to JR Sapporo Station. In addition, never buy cosmetics in a department store. Because the duty-free shops at Narita Airport are the cheapest. -If you want to buy drugstore cosmetics, you can go to Tanukikoji. Many stores have Chinese-speaking staff and usually close at 11 o'clock.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

There is a large electronics mall to the west of the JR station. If you want to buy Japanese electronics, you can go there. It closes at 10pm. I personally think that Sapporo is a place that can be visited in two days and one night or even one day and one night. It is very simple and comfortable to just go there.

Otaru has glass products, beautiful coastal train views, and delicious sushi. Some people say it is not worth a visit. Yunluo thinks that you should go and see this town. You can reach Otaru by taking a half-hour train from JR Sapporo Station. You can find the departure and return times on the JR train timetable.

Remember, when taking the train from Sapporo to Otaru, choose a window seat on the right side so that you can enjoy the wonderful seaside view. It feels great to see the train speeding by the sea. (Sea view of the train along the Sapporo-Otaru route) Some people suggest that if you have enough time, you can get off at Minami-Otaru Station and walk to Otaru. Most people choose to get off directly at Otaru Station.

You can pick up a free hand-drawn map at the train station. (Otaru Train Station. Note that the word "Ma Chi" represents the train station) In Otaru, Yunluo recommends 4 places to visit: -Sushi Street. The first choice is "Zheng Sushi", but Yunluo and An Chuyu encountered a situation where there was no seat and they had to wait for more than 30 minutes, so they changed to Asahi Sushi.

There is also a so-called Michelin sushi restaurant that I haven't found. (This plate of nigiri, the seafood is fresh, and the Hokkaido rice is especially delicious. It is full and chewy, and only costs more than 150 yuan) - Kitaichi Glass. There are various glass craft shops nearby, and there are many tourists. There is a production workshop on the second floor, which you can go in and visit.

See how people process those glass crafts, no photos allowed. The entrance of the workshop is not very conspicuous. It is just on the north side of the road, so you need to pay attention. (Road and store near Kitaichi Glass) - Otaru Canal and warehouse. Go north along the map and you can easily find the warehouse area of ​​Otaru Canal. You can take a boat on the canal, but the distance is too short.

No need to take a boat, just walk. The warehouse area has been converted into restaurants and cafes. There are rickshaws by the canal, and the rickshaw drivers all have great muscular bodies. (Canal and warehouse on the right) (Rickshaw drivers and tourists) - Phantom Cafe by the sea. What is this place, why is it not mentioned in any guide?

Because this is what Yunluo discovered himself. On the west side of the canal, you will see the location for the canal cruise. Turn right at this location and continue walking north, that is, continue walking towards the sea. It will take less than 8 minutes to walk through a parking lot. There is also a cruise ship terminal on the left, and then you will come to a dock and see a container on the side.

This is the cafe called Phantom. You may have been walking around Otaru for most of the day and are tired. It is the best place to sit down, have a drink and watch the sea quietly. (It should be at the red light intersection of Minato-machi, turn right, and then walk to the beach on the right, and you will find the cafe) (The container is so big that the space is limited.

But tourists from other places basically won’t find this) (This view is roughly what you see from the Phantom Cafe) (This is on the way back from the cafe, on the way to the train station, there is Minato-machi intersection in front) (There is a section of abandoned railway tracks on the road from Minato-machi intersection to Otaru Train Station.

Those who like taking pictures can join in the fun) Why do you have to take a bath? Yunluo thinks that you can take a look at the following pictures. (These are all hotel introduction pictures, not taken by Yunluo, but it is not an exaggeration, it is such a great real scene) The above pictures are all the views from the place where Yunluo and An Chuyu took a hot spring bath.

You must go to the Toya Lake Onsen, and if you really go, Yunlu recommends that thelakeviewtoyanonokazeresort is the best choice. Because it has an infinity-edge hot spring on the rooftop with an unbeatable view! Take the Hakodate Line train from Sapporo.

You can arrive at Toya Station (Toya) halfway. After arriving at the station, you need to take a bus to Toyako Hot Spring Town. There are very few buses, and Yunluo does not record the timetable. Some other guides may have it. It takes about half an hour to arrive. After arriving at Toyako Bus Terminal, you can walk to the hotel, which is very small.

The best hotel here is the Windsor Resort Hotel on the west side of the lake. The rich can book it. The main popularity of the town is concentrated on the south side of the lake, but to be honest, don't expect much popularity. It is a very quiet hot spring town. Most of the people who come here are Japanese tourists. Because there is really no other suitable hotel to book. (To be continued...)
