地下鐵大通站地下廣場 / Chika Hiroba

地下鐵大通站地下廣場（札幌市中央區）位在Chikaho(札幌站前大道地下步行空間）和Pole Town (連結大通和薄野之間的地下街）之間。因為位在大通站的中央大廳所以很容易找到。這裡設置有很多長椅，非常適合當作逛街途中的休息場所。附近也有便利商店因此十分方便。記得使用過後要將垃圾帶走。

Chika Hiroba (Sapporo City, Chuo-ku), which literally means "underground square" in English, is located above Subway Odori Station between Chikaho and Pole Town. Chikaho is an underground walkway connecting Odori and Sapporo Stations, and Pole Town is an underground shopping arcade between Odori and Susukino. Chika Hiroba has many seats for people to sit down and take a rest. This is especially good for tourists who don't have time to relax in a coffee shop or such while exploring the central area of Sapporo. There is also a convenience store near Chika Hiroba. Please dispose of your cans or plastic bottles after drinking or take them with you.

琴似屯田兵村士兵小屋遺跡（琴似屯田兵村兵屋跡） / Kotoni Tondenhei Village Site and Barracks

琴似屯田兵村士兵小屋遺跡（位於札幌市西區）雖然是很小的一個房子但被登錄在日本國家指定史跡當中。屯田兵是指在1874年時政府下令派到北海道來開拓的士兵，最初的開墾地就在琴似。從地下鐵琴似車站一號出口步行約3分鐘的地點保留了一間典型的小屋。當時總共有208間小屋並排地建築在這裡。

Kotoni Tondenhei Village Site and Barracks (Sapporo City Nishi-ku), which was important in Hokkaido's history, was designated as a historical site by the national government of Japan in 1982. Tondenhei were soldiers sent to Hokkaido by the government in late 19th century. Tondenhei had a command to cultivate the land and guard it. The first group of Tondenhei arrived at Kotoni in 1874, and they built 208 houses there. One of them is preserved on its original site near Kotoni Station on Subway Tozai Line, three minutes from Exit 1 on foot. Incidentally, three Tondenhei villages in total were established in Hokkaido.

1月下旬的札幌 / In Sapporo at the end of January

1月下旬的札幌，一日當中最低氣溫約在-10度左右，最高氣溫約在-3度左右。如果北方的冷氣團來襲的話，最高氣溫約-7、-8度，最低氣溫約-12、-13度左右。穿著上推薦一定要帶圍巾。如果脖子有保暖的話，整個體感溫度會完全不同。手套也是絕對需要的，在百元商店也買得到。

In Sapporo at the end of January, the lowest temperature during the day can reach minus ten degrees. Typically, the highest temperature is around minus three degrees. However, when a cold front comes from the north, the highest temperature can be as low as minus seven or eight degrees and the lowest minus twelve or thirteen degrees. For clothing, our recommendation is to wear a scarf. When the neck is warm, the feeling is very different to the actual temperature outside. Also, wearing gloves is necessary. Gloves are sold at 100 yen shops. It is so convenient.
