(5 things I want to do in Hokkaido.)

1-I want to try soup curry which is one of Hokkaido’s local dishes. It is different to regular curry, the sauce is very thin. There are about 250 soup curry restaurants in Sapporo City.
 

2- I want to join Lake Shikotsu Hyoto Festival. This festival held every year from January to February at Lake Shikotsu, located south of Sapporo, where magical sculptures expressing the beauty of nature decorate the lake.


3-I want to visit Kaminokoike. It is in a small town called Kiyosato to the north of Lake Mashu. It is a very small pond, but the water is so clear that you can see through to the very bed of the pond.


4-I want to eat Jingisukan. It is the soul food of Hokkaido. Jingisukan is a Japanese grilled mutton dish prepared on a convex metal skillet or other grill. We can find many long-standing restaurants in Sapporo.


5-I want to visit Asahiyama Zoo. It is the largest zoo in Hokkaido. We can see many animals in the slightly different environment to what you find in other zoos. The most famous show is "Penguin Walk." This is a chance to see the penguins up close.
