新川 / Shinkawa River

新川是經由札幌市和小樽市最後流入日本海的河川,它是於1886年時為了治水所建造的人造河川。在札幌部分地區於沿著新川兩側設有幹道可通行。另外在河堤上設置有步道。步道經由附近的住戶種植數種櫻花,一到春天櫻花盛開時便可看到彷彿一片粉紅色的牆壁般延綿的櫻花樹。全長約10.5公里。

Shinkawa River runs through both Sapporo City and Otaru City where it meets the Sea of Japan. This is an artificial river and was built in 1886 to control flooding. On both sides of the Sapporo section of the river, roads run along the banks. The roads are called Shinkawa-dori Street. Long promenades are also on both sides of the river. Residents around the river started to plant a lot of cherry trees consisting of different species. In the sakura season in mid spring, drivers can feel as if there is a long pink wall which is 10.5 kilometers in length.




寒地土木研究所 / The Civil Engineering Research Institute for Cold Regions

寒地土木研究所是位於札幌市豐平區的國立研究機構。境內種植許多千島櫻(只在北海道等寒冷地區才能種植的櫻花)境內是為了美化環境才於1984年時開始種植櫻花樹。這個設施平常是不對一般民眾開放的,但只有在櫻花盛開期間時對外開放。境內也有小河等造景氣氛非常好。

The Civil Engineering Research Institute for Cold Regions is located in Toyohira-ku, Sapporo. Many Chishima-zakura trees - a cherry tree species which only grows in relatively cold regions such as Hokkaido - are planted  on the land surrounding the center. To assist in environmental maintenance, 200 trees were brought to the center from Kiritappu in eastern Hokkaido in 1984. This national research center is closed to the public, but they open their doors to the public when the sakura flowers are in season. This is usually for about a week at the end of April or the beginning of May. There is a small river and it makes for a beautiful setting.
