Wakkanai

WAKKANAI（稚內市）是日本最北端的道路休息站，緊鄰JR稚內站。有標示日本最北端的招牌，是著名的拍照地點。呈現出列車員敲響出發鈴聲樣貌的流政之的雕刻作品也是著名的拍照地點。Wakkanai Select (咖啡廳）的招牌料理是西式牛肉燴飯。此外，在商店不只販賣稚內的土特產，也有販賣宗谷地區的特產品

Wakkanai (Wakkanai City) is a road station on route 40, and it’s the northernmost road station in Japan. It is housed within JR Wakkanai Station. A sign which shows visitors the northernmost rail point in the country is a popular photo spot. There are also some other photo worthy scenes. A sculpture of a man with a bell, a work by the sculptor Nagare Masayuki, is one of them. At Wakkanai Select, a café and a shop, hayashi rice (rice with hashed meat) is popular. They sell not only Wakkanai souvenirs, but also souvenirs of the northern areas of Hokkaido.

JR洞爺站 / JR Toya Station

JR洞爺站（位於洞爺湖町）位於國道37號沿線上，是特快車也會停留的鄉鎮主要車站。有2008年第34屆八大工業國高峰會議（北海道洞爺湖高峰會議）的紀念碑。從車站可以徒步前往內浦灣的前灘。前灘是沙灘，對岸則可以看得到駒之岳等山脈。因為波浪很平穩所以可以在海邊遊玩。這裡盛產的扇貝貝殼常被波浪打到岸邊。

JR Toya Station (Toyako Town) is on route 37. It’s a main station where limited express trains stop. There is a commemorative object celebrating the 34th G8 Summit (Hokkaido-Toyako Summit) held in 2008. As Maehama, a sandy beach, is near the station, it’s possible to walk to it. Maehama is on the Uchiura Gulf, which is curved in a C-shape, with the waves calm enough for people to enjoy swimming. Empty scallop shells are usually on the beach. Visitors can admire the view of mountains such as Mt. Komaga Dake on the other side of the gulf.
