First, let's head out to the Hokkaido Jingu Shrine, which covers a vast area. Emperor Meiji is enshrined here, and it is known as one of the few shrines in Japan where an emperor is enshrined. The area is rich in nature and is said to be home to wild Ezo squirrels. If you are lucky, you may be able to see them. In 1869, Hokkaido, then known as "Ezochi" , was renamed "Hokkaido" to better define it as the land of Japan. The three gods were enshrined as the protectors of Hokkaido's pioneering and development at "Hokkaido Chinzashinsai festival" in Tokyo. The three deities were enshrined at the shrine, were moved from Tokyo to Hakodate and then to Sapporo.
Next, let's go to Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill to know and see about the famous great men called the father of Hokkaido. At this observatory, there is a bronze statue of William Smith Clark. He came this land to train the future leaders of Hokkaido. A new statue of Dr. Clark was erected at the Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill in order to convey the spirit of frontier spirit, the origin of Hokkaido's pioneering spirit, to the whole of the country. Even today, his words "boys ambitios" are passed down to posterity. Also,the guest can see the idyllic scenery typical of Hokkaido and the scenic view of the vast Ishikari Plain. Such "Hokkaido-like scenery" has remained in sapporo.
Heading out to the city of Sapporo to visit the Beer Museum, the oldest beer museum in Japan. This museum is said to have been built in the Meiji era (1868-1912), and it is a museum that retains much of that history. In this museum, you can experience the history of Sapporo Beer, which has been handed down from the Hokkaido pioneering project in 1876, through panels and videos.
