Detailed introduction of Hokkaido tourist area in Japan

Hokkaido is located in the northernmost part of the Japanese archipelago, with an area of 8345 1 km2, accounting for 22% of Japan's total area. Hokkaido consists of five small islands, namely Hokkaido Island and Yili, Liwen, Tianmai, Shaoqi Island and Aoqi Island, as well as four islands commonly known as Northern Territory, Housuo, Choishuo, Sedan and Tooth Dance.

Hokkaido used to be called Xiayi, and the aborigines on the island are Ainu people. During the Meiji period (1868 ~ 19 12), the Japanese began to move to Hokkaido and devoted themselves to reclaiming this land. Our ancestors cut thorns with their own hands, opened up primitive woodlands, and began to engage in agriculture and fisheries. Now, just a century after this virgin land was reclaimed, Hokkaido has developed into one of the few granaries in Japan.

The reason why Hokkaido's nature can still maintain its wild and beautiful environment up to now is that Hokkaido has established six national parks, five quasi-national parks and 12 Hokkaido National Natural Park, which has completely protected and managed the natural environment.

Hokkaido has beautiful scenery all year round, which is fascinating. In spring, flowers and weeds in full bloom all over the mountain make the earth look brand-new. In summer, green mountains and seas can make tourists feel refreshed. Now is the best season for young people to see alpine plants and travel far. Autumn is a season full of red leaves and beautiful scenery. Hokkaido in winter presents a silvery white world. Ice floes, beautiful red-crowned cranes and white swans on the Okhotsk coast constitute a beautiful natural world. Various winter sightseeing activities carried out in various places enable visitors to enjoy the unique landscape of Hokkaido, and the unique cuisine of Hokkaido will increase the charm of the tourism concept.
