Special night views from restaurants
Sapporo Nightscape is characterized by the fact that the night view can be enjoyed from a variety of scenes.
You can enjoy the city’s nightscape in full color near and far from mountaintop observatories in the suburbs, from the observation decks of towers in the city, from restaurant seats in high-rise buildings, from inside Ferris wheels, and from hotel rooms on the upper floors of high-rise buildings.
The snowy nightscape of the world’s largest city with the heaviest snowfall is spectacularly luminous.”
