Aputa

APUTA(洞爺湖町)是在國道37號沿線的山丘上的道路休息站。從山丘上可以瞭望到內浦灣，可看到美麗的夕陽。2006年以前，行政區上這裡屬於虻田町，現今因為行政區整合這裡成為了洞爺湖町。APUTA在虻田的語源-阿伊努語中意指「製作魚鉤的河川」。下面就是漁港，也可以吃到新鮮的海產。

Aputa (Toyako Town) is a road station on route 37. The actual location is on top of the hill where visitors can take in the panoramic view of Uchiura Gulf. From a bird’s eye view, the gulf is shaped like the letter C. A beautiful sunset can be seen from the hill. This place used to be in Abuta Town, which changed to Toyako Town after merging with Toyako Village. Abuta is actually derived from Aputa, a word in Ainu language, which means a river for making fishing hock. At the restaurant, fresh seafood from the fishery port near the station is served.
