Asahiyama Zoo is located just outside the center of Asahikawa City. A facility famous Japan-wide, it's a must-visit in Hokkaido and the first stop on this itinerary.
Asahiyama Zoo prides itself on letting visitors experience unique and whimsical ways of observing animals within their natural habitats. Creative enclosure construction as well as constant improvements make the zoo a great place to view nature in a uniquely immersive and memorable way.
Highlights include being able to view the seals as they swim from one enclosure to another through transparent tunnels and watching the penguins go out for a walk during the winter.

2. A Wonder of Nature: Shirogane Blue Pond

A turquoise mirror with tree trunks rising straight up out of the water, Shirogane Blue Pond is a magical and enchanting sight all year round. The pond is located near the Biei district and is a very popular nature spot among Hokkaido visitors.
The pond gets its signature turquoise blue waters from Shirahige Waterfall. The churning and raging waters of the falls pick up aluminum which when settled in the pond creates a shimmering vivid blue hue.
Bleached white rocks that compose the bottom of the pond complete the scenery and provide a unique canvas for this surreal landscape.
