the v v v v famous canal in otaru!!!

altho it was shorter than i expected… it’s nevertheless nice…

as with the usual sunset photos, come at evening time n wait til the sky turns dark…

but must have a good camera n/or a tripod lo…

otaru has plenty of musical boxes, different tunes, different designs…

so irresistible!!! 

the morning market with loads of fresh seafood… lots of souvenir shops too…

hakodate as a important port many years back has many different foreign influences… in the building and the the churches…

the day n night view is rather amazing too… 

of cos not to be missed is the night scenery from mount hakodate~~

the difficulties of night photography is evident here!!! the above one was taken from the cable car… [aug06]

the one below taken while waiting for the cable car~~ [jun08]

the unique part of hakodate’s night scene is the hourglass shaped of the coastal areas…

北海道神宫.. ongoing japanese wedding ceremony…

the sapporo tower that is located at the eastern end of odori park…

时计台 that has been chiming for a long time liao~~~

the nice red bricked- baroque style building… the 旧政府厅 …

the garden at the famous kohibito 白色恋人 chocolate factory…

doing this month’s capsules makes me wanna go hokkaido again! ahahaahah

noboribetsu… the onsen place…
