Hokkaido Hidden Gems

La isla más septentrional de Japón, con estaciones marcadas y productos de primera. En verano, campos de lavanda en Furano; en invierno, el canal nevado de Otaru y esquí en polvo. La vista nocturna del monte Hakodate, el marisco fresco y los onsen la convierten en un destino imprescindible.

9 spots

La frontera norte de Japón: una isla inmensa de parques nacionales volcánicos, granjas lecheras y algunos de los mejores mariscos del país, colonizada hace apenas 150 años y con una sensación de espacio abierto que no se encuentra en el resto del archipiélago.
