Skin care products are all from polaaromaess. The design between the washbasin and the room is also very grand, without any sense of crampedness. Western-style bed, Japanese-style tatami. Under such light, Yunluo no longer cares about the scenery outside the curtains, it is too soft! Yunluo's marimo, cute, right?
The heavy snow has not stopped for a whole day. The streets at night have a different style. The color is no longer so monotonous white, and it has a warmer feeling. The four sisters izakaya in "If You Are the One" is actually not owned by the four sisters, but seems to be an old man who is not in good health? It's a pity that Yunluo and An Chuyu went to the pub. It was closed.
Probably because of the heavy snow, no one would be as enthusiastic as Yunluo and An Chuyu to come here to drink. How to get there: If you are staying in Yujiu no Sato Tsuruga, you can take a shuttle bus from the nearby Wings to another hotel not far from Tsuruga. Yunluo doesn't remember the name very clearly, so you can ask the front desk.
Tell him you want to go to the Four Sisters Izakaya, and they will tell you how to get there. But in summer, you don't have to take the bus. You can walk there after dinner in no time. Xia Zi, one of the four sisters, always feels like Kelly Chen has come in when she sees Yun Luo. Do you feel the same way? There is still a movie poster at the door of the store.
Actually, at that time, Yunluo suddenly understood why Fang Zhongxin took Shu Qi to travel to Hokkaido in the movie, and why their relationship also wanted to end in Hokkaido, but Yunluo will not tell you, everything is waiting for you to feel it yourself. There is an unclosed foot bath at the door of the room that day. Yunluo said unclosed, which means it is not closed to the outside world.
Yunluo and An Chuyu, two losers wearing thin clothes, thought they could comfortably reward their feet after a day of running around in this steaming pool. The moment they opened the door and entered, the raging cold wind froze Yunluo... When he stretched his feet into the pool, the water temperature was not enough to warm him up! However, if you come here in spring, summer, or autumn, it will definitely be very comfortable.
Very cozy. If it is winter, it is better to take a bath in the hot spring! A rest area on the corridor.
It's time to leave Lake Akan. Although it was still snowing and cold outside in the morning, you must have no idea how reluctant Yunluo was to leave. If there is a chance, Yunluo will definitely come here again in another season. Take the bus from the hotel entrance to JR Minami-Chitose Station (Minami-Chitose Station can also reserve seats). Then go to another hot spring town - Noboribetsu.
This is Yunluo and An Chuyu's plan for today. Not long after leaving Lake Akan, the sky cleared up completely, which was a relief for the reluctance to leave. On the road, you can often see some lonely little houses, between the blue sky, white snow and mountains. What kind of life do the owners of the houses want? It must be a life of peace and contentment.
The Land of Backlight ~ This journey takes nearly five hours by bus. You can buy some food and drinks at the rest stops on the way. The blue sky and white clouds swept away the previous haze, and this land became more beautiful~ The sky and the earth are snowy mountains. Rivers, white snow, blue sky, this is what Hokkaido should look like, right? The desserts at the rest stop are so delicious... The ice cream is 350 yen, it's really big and worth it!
Just eat some hot dogs for lunch, because there will be a crab buffet for dinner in Noboribetsu tonight! Yunluo's rice balls On the way, we passed Tomamu, which left Yunluo and An with beautiful memories of their first encounter. Only here was it covered by snow and wind... The sky cleared up as soon as we left that area. We traveled all the way and finally arrived in Noboribetsu before sunset. As soon as we left the station, Yunluo fell in love with this warm town!
Unlike the places we visited before, this place is not covered with heavy snow. There is little snow on the road. The whole town is covered with a warm orange color by the sunset, which makes you want to get close. There is a big bear specimen at the exit of the Jr station, which comes from the bear ranch. Yunluo and Anchuyu came at the wrong time. The ranch was under maintenance and closed for a long time.
Friends who go there in the future can consider going to the bear ranch to get close to the big bears. It is so majestic! The hotel they stayed in in Sunny Town is called Mahoroba. What attracted Yunluo and An Chuyu to meet is that this place is not only located in Noboribetsu, the most famous hot spring town in Hokkaido. It also has the largest open-air bath in Japan - I can tell you after experiencing it myself, it is really big and comfortable.
It is close to the mountains, with good privacy and a reasonable price. The point is that for dinner, you can eat all kinds of crabs (long-legged crabs, king crabs, hairy crabs) and steaks. Breakfast and dinner are included in the accommodation fee. You can also soak in a very refreshing hot spring! Mahoroba is only a few hundred meters away from Noboribetsu Jigokudani. Whether it is early morning or sunset, I recommend everyone to go and see and experience it.
What is the feeling of hell.......... Yunluo has experienced it. The Devil and Yunluo Noboribetsu Hell Valley In winter, the Hell Valley is filled with the smell of sulfur (it should be said that the whole hot spring town is filled with the smell of rotten eggs). After a while, you will get drunk. However, the beautiful scenery drawn by white snow + red soil + yellow sulfur + mountains and forests in the distance.
Accompanied by the eternal smoke, the lights in the distance slowly light up. If you come here during the day, you may not be able to feel the true charm of Hell Valley. Noboribetsu Hell Valley Noboribetsu Hell Valley Noboribetsu Hell Valley Yunluo was drunk by the stench... Yunluo likes this photo very much, with the lights of the hotel in the distance, the outline of the street lamps, the faded clouds, and the crows in the sky - the devil is coming.
All humans, please retreat! When the moon rises in Noboribetsu Hell Valley, the whole Hell Valley becomes even more terrifying, with smoke filling the air and the smell of sulfur making you dizzy. But the more you feel this way, the more you will feel that it is worth the long journey to Noboribetsu! The cold moonlight and the fiery earth are like two worlds of ice and fire.
The street lights in Noboribetsu Hell Valley made the falling snow so clearly visible. Looking up all the time, Yunluo felt that aliens must be trying to suck Yunluo away. The Hell Valley in the dark night is the real Hell Valley. There was no one making a fire in the distance in Noboribetsu Hell Valley, but because of the geothermal heat, hot air was rising, making this street even more full of the colors of hell in the night.
Ghosts, like lucky cats. Look at these two red and blue ghosts, sleeping comfortably with their legs crossed! There are many small decorations in Noboribetsu with the image of ghosts, just like the lions in Okinawa, with various shapes and each one is very cute. You will not be afraid at all, because these cute images have completely subverted Yunluo and An Chuyu's understanding of ghosts!
The following thing is more terrifying. The faint-hearted should be careful... The hotel where Yunluo and An Chuyu stayed in Noboribetsu was also traditional Japanese style. The room was smaller than that of Lake Akan (because it was cheaper), but it was also fully equipped and very clean.
It also comes with limited edition devil snacks. Change clothes and go eat crabs! This is just the crabs from the first round of battle, not greedy. The crabs are really delicious! Especially the hairy crabs that Yunluo loves the most~~ The steak is also fried just right, not fully cooked, but it locks in the juice of the beef, so it doesn't feel dry or hard to chew. Exploding cherry tomatoes.
I have already recommended it to you, so I won't say more here~sashimi is so fresh and sweet~two idiots who are full of food...passersby took the initiative to ask to take pictures of Yunluo and An Chuyu, are they too cute? The big crab legs will crush Yunluo to death! After eating so much greasy food, Yunluo usually doesn't eat dessert after the meal, but she accidentally saw this snack.
I must recommend to everyone - Sakura glutinous rice dumplings. The food itself only has the sweet fragrance of glutinous rice and red bean paste, but the pickled cherry blossoms enhance the fragrance of this snack by n levels. The salty cherry blossoms make the sweetness less greasy. Yunluo is at a loss for words, and can only say that it is really delicious! At the end of the day, I went to soak in the hotel's hot springs.
It's really big and there are many kinds! Many of the pools were empty. Yunluo was alone in the snowy night, looking at the bright moonlight and countless stars above his head, and sighed that it would be great if this kind of life could last a little longer...
In the early morning of Noboribetsu, the streets were deserted and the shops were closed. Only the glowing vending machines could bring some popularity. On the smoky streets, Yunluo, who hadn't combed her hair, looked like a demon from a secret place. Today's plan was to go from Noboribetsu to Otaru. It was very convenient and fast. Everything was ok with JR. When I arrived at the JR station, I saw this bag...
Well, it turns out that there are knockoffs in Japan... Yunluo's Puma T-shirts can stand up straight in the future! I dragged Yunluo's small suitcase to wait for the train. I really like this kind of old platform. Don't think that your face will be dark if you shoot against the light without a flash~~ When the train drove to the other side of the sea, Yunluo knew that Yunluo was not far from Otaru.
Why did they come to Otaru? Actually, they just wanted to see the snowy day in Iwai Shunji's "Love Letter". But after coming here, they found that Otaru brought Yunluo far more surprises than these. But if you ask what those surprises are, it's really hard for Yunluo to answer. Yunluo and An Chuyu didn't have any goals in mind when they came to Otaru. They just wanted to walk around the seaside and the canal.
Too many love stories have sad and beautiful legends, but there is none in "Love Letter". But the innocent love between the two Fujii Itsuki was not revealed at the time. Hiroko's deep love for Fujii Itsuki makes people sigh that this is the ultimate in pure love. The story of Fujii Itsuki happened in the city that Yunluo was about to arrive. Suddenly I felt so nervous.
Yunluo is actually going to Otaru. Otaru Station. The weather was not very good when I first arrived in Otaru. To be more precise, it was not very good for most people, but it couldn't be better for Yunluo - because Yunluo wanted to see what Otaru looked like in the heavy snow. The mailbox was almost covered by the heavy snow. Can my dear Fujii Itsuki still receive Hiroko's letter?
The colors in "Love Letter" are quite monotonous, but the real Otaru is full of cartoon colors. It looks like the fog is about to clear up in the streets of Otaru. Do you know what this is for? A locomotive! Many cars in Japan are cute and square like this... This is the Otaru Canal that has been photographed by countless people. People who have seen many beautiful scenery must think that the Otaru Canal is nothing to see.
But if you come during the snow festival, the lights on the riverside and the candles are lit, then it is really romantic. Otaru Canal (otarucanal) There are also human-powered tricycles beside the Otaru Canal, but the price is very high because the labor cost is too high... Otaru Canal (otarucanal) Another angle of the canal ~ Otaru Canal (otarucanal) The snow is getting heavier and heavier.
If Yunluo and An Chuyu had come a day later, they would have been able to catch up with the day of putting up the lights and candles. Now the staff are working hard to make some small holes so that the candles can be put in and light up the entire riverside. People with acrophobia should be careful when watching... Ducks are really not afraid of the cold, and they are leisurely looking for food in the river.
Otaru is the most beautiful when it snows. There is a restaurant next to the Otaru Canal. It is actually a small warehouse where many restaurants are gathered. The icicles on the eaves are so sharp! Otaru Canal Restaurant (otaruungashokudo).
The fourth time I ate ramen was at a small shop at the entrance of the Canal Dining Hall. In fact, there was nothing special about the ramen here. It tasted very ordinary, but I especially recommend its milk pudding and grilled scallops! The pudding was not big. As a dessert before or after a meal, it would not be too much to eat. Hokkaido milk is very famous throughout Japan.
There is also a layer of slightly bitter caramel at the bottom of the pudding, which makes the milk flavor more prominent~ The ramen is divided into sea salt flavor and soy sauce flavor. In fact, the taste difference is not big. Those who are used to eating steamed scallops with garlic must not miss this butter-roasted scallops. The taste is very different from the garlic scallops, but it is absolutely delicious and the size is large enough. There is no fishy smell at all.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After eating, my mouth was filled with the aroma of butter! After finishing the meal, the sky cleared up and I felt like I had really walked into the world of Japanese comics - the blue sky had very low clouds, and the wires on the street corners were crisscrossed. You might think it was not neat enough, but in fact, that is what Japanese comics should look like, isn’t it?
Yunluo and An Chuyu kept walking along this road, knowing that the direction was the sea, but not knowing what kind of world they would enter after passing this street corner. In fact, the joy in the photo really doesn't need to be posed (if posed, the hair wouldn't be so messy...), I was just very happy at that time, the ground was slippery. You can skate without shoes.
Women are naturally vain, and when taking selfies, they were photographed by the pig flow^_^. At the end of the snow, there are distant mountains and the sea~ No one will come to the warehouse to play like Yunluo and An Chuyu... This is actually not a tourist attraction at all, so there are few people. In addition to the pig flow, there are fishing boats, white clouds, blue sea, and snow-capped mountains. The clouds are so low that it feels like you can touch them with your hands.
The snow-capped mountains are also clearly visible. The weather changes rapidly. It was cloudy again in a short while. I am very glad that Yunluo and An Chuyu seized this short sunny day. The cloudy and sunny days in the distance are so clear~ I can see a clear ray of sunshine~ The small houses on the streets of Otaru, each one looks like a cream ice cream on top^_^. Everyone knows that Otaru is most famous for its music boxes.
Glass products and candles. Yunluo's personal experience is that this store called Taisho Glass Museum is definitely the most exquisite (glass products)! Taisho Glass Museum has many branches, but each branch sells different products, but each store seems to have a very clear theme and a very clear positioning.
It's not just a bunch of things put on display and sold randomly. The main focus of this shop is small glass ornaments. Each ornament is smaller than a finger, but the exquisiteness is not compromised at all. Yunluo loves pigs. So Yunluo likes these pigs~ But they are too small, Yunluo is afraid that they will disappear before they get home...
The cute little pink pig in the Taisho Glass Palace~ There are always snowmen of various shapes piled up in front of the Taisho Glass Palace. Yunluo always thinks that snowmen are gifts given to the world by people who are sentimental and understand life. Snow itself has no clear shape or bright colors. No one will pay attention to it when it is piled on the ground, but it becomes a snowman.
But each one is different. Each one reflects your mood. You can also pay to experience the process of firing glass. The little snowman with long eyelashes is holding two hearts and waiting for whom? Although this tree has lost all its leaves, people have hung a lot of sparkling glass on its branches.
Let the whole tree shine brightly~ Mallards foraging in the Taisho Glass Palace (otarutaishuoglasspalace). It is said that mallards only turn into this color during the estrus period~ The most beautiful store in the Taisho Glass Palace is this space-themed store! Pig flowed back and forth in this store for a long time, but in the end he still didn't know which one to buy.
It seems that they are the most brilliant when put together. As soon as I entered the store, I was attracted by Pavarotti's "The Sun". In such music, each piece seems so creative and sacred~ Every piece is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes away! I finally understand why so many people are obsessed with the stars, the sky, and the universe. They are unfathomable, but they are also worth pursuing.
They have never been the dream of ordinary people. Take a photo with the snowmen. This is also the family formation that Yunluo expects~ Little sister with long eyelashes, Yunluo likes you so much! Before dark, Yunluo left Otaru. Yunluo and An Chuyu wandered around for a whole day without a goal or strategy. It was a leisurely and romantic seaside town.
The place is small but full of life; it is Otaru, which is pure even without Fujii Itsuki. The next few days will be spent in the most prosperous Sapporo. When it comes to Sapporo, you will definitely think of the Snow Festival, ramen and beer. Fortunately, Yunluo and An Chuyu have experienced these things! The first thing they did when they arrived in Sapporo was to eat barbecue and drink beer!
Although it is not the first snow and there is no fried chicken, Sapporo's beer can still attract enough people to come. If you ask Yunluo where is the best place to drink beer, Yunluo will of course recommend you the famous Sapporo Beer Garden! The appearance of the beer garden does not look like a place to eat at all, because it is too artistic - the old building built in 1889 is covered with ivy. (To be continued...)
