A free academic atmosphere here, Hokkaido University Campus

#indoordate #japantravel #outdoordate #hokkaido #hokkaidouniversity Universities are always brimming with youth and energy. Students toting books. Foreigners seeking study material. People enjoying running and walking instead of parks. There's no better place to experience that energy than Hokkaido University! Find inspiration in this place brimming with nature and student energy! ———————— Address: 8 Chome Kita 10 Jonishi, Kita Ward, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-0810 Opening Hours: 24 hours (Museum open 10:00-17:00) Admission: Free Recommended for: Those who enjoy exploring a variety of sights/enjoying nature ————————— 1) Beautiful Campus Exterior Hokkaido University boasts one of the most beautiful campuses in Japan. Two poplar-lined avenues and one ginkgo-lined avenue. Cherry blossoms in spring, bright sunlight and nature in summer. Ginkgo trees in fall, and snow in winter. The scenery changes with each season, making it a delightful place to visit any time of year. That's reason to visit right now! 2) Delicious Snacks. My absolute favorite is the soft-serve ice cream sold at the museum cafe! At 250 yen for the mini size and 450 yen for the regular size, it's a great value. Even so, it's rich and creamy, thanks to the generous use of milk, making it the best soft-serve ice cream I've had in Hokkaido. Another recommendation is the Hokkaido Dorayaki sold at Seiko Mart. It's also reasonably priced at 180 yen, and comes with a thick bun and a generous amount of red bean paste. Don't miss out on trying both!! 3) Free and Rich Museum The museum, open until 5 PM, is free to enter. In addition to the school's exhibitions, each department has its own exhibitions, allowing you to experience the university's diversity. The most striking feature is the sheer variety of models and specimens! This is the epitome of Hokkaido University's academic philosophy of "specimenalism." Experience nature firsthand through dinosaur and animal bones, and a beautifully recreated mammoth model! University, the greatest intellect created by mankind. The natural imbalance felt within it is the charm of Hokkaido. We hope you have a wonderful trip!
