Sightseeing
Hokkaido Shrine can also be found in Maruyama park. This is a "must see", especially during the New Year holidays where crowds of people go to pray and get an Omikuji (fortune message). Japanese religion is an amalgam of Shinto and Buddhism. Most Japanese are not very religious but more superstitious. They will follow the major rituals at either the temple or the shrine but they don't necessarily believe in the religion as such.

Parks & Nature
Moerenuma Park is one of those modern, stylish Japanese parks, designed by the late sculptor Isamu Noguchi. A very pleasant way to enjoy a day trip if you want to get away from the busy city. And only a short drive away. Great in the summer but opened all year round.

Shopping
The Odori Area is famous for old domestic stores as well as new International fashion outlets. Pole town and Aurora town are two of the main shopping areas here. Both these shopping arcades are underground hence easy to access in winter as well. They begin at the Odori station and end at Susukino subway station. I love the perky underground shopping ambience here with a variety of stores and cafes.

Developed in the 18th century, Tanukikoji (a place where badgers hang out) was the first organised shopping site ever created in Sapporo. A whopping number of shops, restaurants, cafes, Karaoke bars, and night clubs give it a bazaar like feel. You can buy pretty much everything from souvenirs, local food products and cheap cosmetics to kimonos, tea and incense sticks. I usually go to Donki Quijote when I am in Tanukikoji. Donki has a huge range of merchandise where you can shop till you drop. Tanukikoji area is a great place for street shopping but ladies please keep your men away.

Entertainment & Activities
Mount Moiwa is a small mountain in the center of Sapporo surrounded by virgin forest. The journey to the summit of the mountain involves taking a ropeway followed by a unique little cable car. It's also possible to hike. The summit has a restaurant, planetarium, theater and an observation deck with views of the city that are particularly good at night. There's a romantic tradition associated with Mount Moiwa whereby local couples write messages on padlocks, ring a bell on the observation deck together and leave their message locked to a fence at the summit.

The observatory is located at the Sapporo Winter Sports Museum, which was a blast! The museum highlights both winter Olympics that have been held in Japan and there are a lot of interactive exhibits. You can practice ski jumping, bobsledding, being a hockey goalie and speed skating. So much fun! We also rode the lift up to the top of the ski jump. I really enjoyed visiting this site and I'm glad we made it part of our visit.
