金比羅神社 / Konpira Shrine

金比羅神社(位於初山別村)對北海道民眾來說也是很少人知道非常獨特的神社。神社的鳥居直立於海中,此神社是祭祀保佑海上交通安全之神的金比羅神。在以前,有金比羅神的護身符隨著海流流到這個海岬,當地漁夫便拿來供奉著。據說之後便流傳著附近海域的海難事故就減少了。這裡也是欣賞夕陽的著名景點。

Konpira Shrine (Shosanbetsu Village) is a unique shrine despite not being known by most people in Hokkaido. The gate of this shrine is called "torii" in Japanese. This shrine is unique, as the main torii is standing in the sea. This shrine worships the protective deity of sea transportation that is called Konpira Sama. Many years ago, a lucky amulet drifted ashore and fishermen enshrined it there. After that, they say the number of marine accidents have decreased. Now, this place is also popular for watching the magical sunset. Looking through the torii at the setting sun is truly a special feeling.








雄冬露營場 / Ofuyu Camp Ground

雄冬露營場(位於增毛町)是在連接札幌市和留萌市的國道231號線上的小公園。這裡設有停車場,作為兜風途中的休息場所十分方便。可以作為指標的是被稱作Sunset Wave的大型輪狀的造景藝術,因此在行車途中也能馬上辨識出來。這附近也是觀賞夕陽的絕佳地點。此外,也有可以稍微玩一下水的設施。

Ofuyu Camp Ground (Mashike Town) is actually a small park on Route 231 which connects Sapporo City and Rumoi City. There is parking, and it's convenient for those who are driving to take a rest. There is a unique piece of art which is like a big ring, named "Sunset Wave". This place is easy to spot thanks to this artistic ring. Incidentally, the coastline of the Sea of Japan is a good place to see the sunset and Ofuyu Camp Ground is one of the better vantage points. Furthermore, there are facilities where you can play in the water.








白銀之瀑 / Shiragane Waterfall

白銀之瀑(位於石狩市)在沿著海岸線通行的國道231號線上。隆冬時期瀑布的水會結凍成巨大的冰柱。可以休息的停車場裡面也有廁所。因為引導到白銀之瀑的指示牌設置的很少所以也有很多車子就開過頭沒有發現。連結札幌市與留萌市的道路上有很多很長的隧道。這裡被廣為認知為開闢道路的難關,在1981年時總算開通了。

Shiragane Waterfall (Ishikari City) is on Route 231 which runs along the coastline of the Sea of Japan. In mid winter, the water freezes and the waterfall becomes a big icicle. There is a parking area which has toilet facilities, so this is a good place for those traveling by car to take a rest. Please note that the waterfall and the parking is not well signposted, and many people miss it as a result. There are many tunnels on this national road which connects Sapporo and Rumoi City. The construction of this road was very difficult, but it was finally completed in 1981.








羊蹄山的景觀停車場 / Viewpoint vantage parking of Mt. Yotei

可以遠眺羊蹄山的景觀停車場在後志地區設置了6個地點。在京極町和俱知安町各一個,在二世谷町和喜茂別町各有二個,都是設置在國道沿線旁。景觀停車場沒有廁所和商店,只有停車的空間。羊蹄山因為外表像富士山一樣是圓錐形所以也被稱作蝦夷富士。北海道在19世紀中期之前被稱作為蝦夷。

Viewpoint vantage parking in the Shiribeshi Area are spots where people can see the beautiful sight of Mt. Yotei. There are only six designated parking areas - one in Kyougoku Town and Kuchan Town, two in Niseko Town, and two in Kimobetsu Town. All the parking areas are on main roads, but there aren't any toilet facilities or shops. Mt. Yotei has the nickname of Ezo Fuji. The shape of Mt. Yotei is similar to Mt. Fuji, which is arguably Japan's most well known symbol. Ezo was the old name of the island of Hokkaido which was used until the middle of the nineteenth century.

Sapporo Autumn Fest

Autumn Fest (秋天祭典)是以慶祝秋季北海道的食物為目的,每年9月舉行的慶典。舉行期間約一個月,會場在札幌市中心的大通公園。在大型的公園當中各式各樣的店家比鄰開店,也有舉辦免費的音樂演奏會。在札幌的秋季時節這裡聚集了北海道當中美味的海產品、農產品、加工食品。光只是逛逛就會覺得肚子很有滿足感。

Sapporo Autumn Fest is a big festival celebrating the harvest and cooking or processing of food from around Hokkaido. This event is held over three weeks in September every year in Odori Park, which stretches over 12 blocks in the center of Sapporo. There are a lot of different stalls selling dishes using farm and dairy products, or seafood and meat from Hokkaido. Also, free shows such as music concerts can be seen on different stages. Not only food but also beverages such as wine are sold there too. Even looking at all these shops would make anybodies stomach grumble.















北黃金貝塚公園 / Kita Kogane Shell Mound Park

北黃金貝塚公園(位於伊達市)為繩紋時代前期(西元5000年~3000年前)的貝塚,是可以參觀還原當時的居所的公園。公園內也有入場免費的博物館。整體來說是保存狀態十分良好的遺跡,學術上來說也是十分貴重的地點。是用扇貝的貝殼所鋪滿的山丘為象徵的公園。繩紋乃是指以繩作為紋樣的土器。

Kita Kogane Shell Mound Park (Date City) is a historical site where visitors can learn about shell mounds and see restored dwellings of the Early Jomon Period (about 7000 to 5500 years ago). This park also houses a free museum. This site was discovered in good condition, and is academically important. On a hill in the park, scallops shells are spread and it gives us a feeling like we are standing at a very special spot. Incidentally, Jomon means the pattern made by a rope pressing on soft clay. The Jomon Period was an age when Jomon style earthenware was used.
