Hokkaido Trip Day 3
And here comes my Hokkaido trip post again :D
Papa said I’ve uploaded too lil pictures of Hokkaido in my blog so I’ll be uploading more here la. Actually I’ve finished uploaded all in my FB but he couldn’t see.
3rd day of the trip was a lil bit boring, for me, and not much pictures were taken

early in the morning, the view from my room
after having our buffet breakfast, the 1st place we visited was Asahi Beer factory.

Asahi is the most famous local beer in Japan

we got to drink as much as we can for FREE :D
but it was weird, my very 1st time drinking beer early in the morning :|

beer chocolate

I forgot where this place was already :p



lunch time :D
this time we were not having buffet, like finally. We had the Japan famous Ramen for lunch

It might not look very inviting, but it tasted real good!
Japanese really put in a lot of effort in cooking the soup for Ramen. They could sometimes spend 1 or 2 days solely to cook the soup and they dont add any MSG. Love it so much! I hate the feeling of thirsty after meal! and this definitely wont happen if u have the real japanese ramen


headed to Asahikawa Otakoyama sake factory after lunch

a very beautiful scenery outside the factory

U know what, great sake is made of special water from the nearby mountain streams or hidden underground aquifirs.
and some ppl even purposely drive here all the way just to get some mountain stream water. can u see the stream of water flowing out from the rock in the picture? :)

and these are all the tools and equitment they used for making sake in the olden days, before those machines were invented
and there were some pictures telling us the process of making sake as well


beautiful isn’t it?


left our jacket on the bus. We kept taking pictures outside the factory because it’s too beautiful but the temperature out there was below 0°C. It was so effin freezing cold until i got my finger bones ached! I couldn’t find anything to keep my fingers warm so i kept them in my sis’s jacket immediately when i saw her! hah XD
Off to Sounkyo after that, which is the largest hot spring area in Daisetsuzan.

sky was turning dark
and it was just 3 something. I hate it sometimes, I could only take picture before 4pm



Ginga and Ryusei Falls, locally cherished as “the husband and wife” falls
but i’m not sure this fall which i took picture with was the husband or the wife

Sliding down the snow was fun! haha
do u see the staircase beside me was all cover by snow? it was so slipery and scary so i decided to slide down instead of walking down from the staircase hahaha

It’s Tatami room again! my love~
after taking a rest, we went down to the restaurant and had out buffet dinner again :D


super super yummy and i ate really ~ A LOT!

I love buffet, because i can grab the desserts as much as i want! :p

All pics are very nice. The Daisetsuzan mountains are a must watch when visiting Daisetsuzan National Park. Ishikari Tokachi mountains are the most beautiful. There are number of animals found here like Hokkaido deer, Hokkaido fox, Ezo sable etc. For more details refer http://www.travelasia360.net/experience-the-daisetsuzan-grand-traverse.html
