The success of Hokkaido's winter tourism was mainly reflected in the following aspects: ** I. Rich and diverse tourism resources ** 1. ** Unique natural landscape ** - There was a lot of snow in Hokkaido in winter, forming a beautiful scenery covered in snow like Odori Park in Saparo. The canal in the snow of Otaru was also a unique winter landscape. - Noboribetsu had the hot Hell Valley, which was a stark contrast to the cold winter weather. There was also the Bear Farm, which added to the fun of traveling. - In winter, Lake Toya could provide a lake-view hotel experience and feed seagulls by boat. - Hakodate was famous for its night view. In addition, the tropical botanical garden had unique views such as monkeys soaking in the hot springs from early December to early May. 2. ** Winter tourism projects ** - Asahikawa Zoological Park was the best place in the world to see animals in the snow. From late December to mid-March, there were special activities such as penguin walks. - Many places, such as the Asahikawa Winter Festival, provided snow activities such as ice and snow mazes, ice and snow slide, and ski tire experience. There were also activities such as fireworks to increase the fun. ** 2. A reasonable tourism planning and layout ** 1. ** City positioning and travel schedule ** - The tourism functions of each city were clearly divided. For example, as the transportation hub and shopping center of Hokkaido, Sappporo would be arranged to play for more than two days. The tourists could enjoy the atmosphere of the city center in Odori Park, taste seafood in Nijo Market, shop in the Raccoon Koji shopping street, and visit Shiroishi Koi Park. - Otaru arranged a one-day tour, focusing on the Otaru Canal and Sakai Town Commercial Street. - Cities such as Asahikawa, Noboribetsu, Toya Lake, and Hakodate also had 1 - 2 days of sightseeing according to their own attractions. This way, tourists could choose according to their time and interests. 2. ** Route planning for different needs ** - For tourists who didn't have enough time to travel, there was a corresponding reduced version of the game, such as excluding some scenic spots or visiting some scenic spots along the way. For example, Furano (there is only snow in winter, and the most beautiful flower fields/lavender are in other seasons), Hakodate (if only the cold factor is considered and the main reason is to see the night view), Asahikawa (does not bring children and does not like animals), and so on. They could also choose to stay at Lake Toya and play on the way. ** 3. Easy transportation and reasonable ticket price strategy ** 1. ** Easy transportation inquiry ** - It provides a dedicated transportation time/ticket price inquiry website, which allows visitors to check the transportation information between New Chisui Airport, Saparo, Otaru, Asahikawa, Noboribetsu, Toya, Hakodate, and other places. 2. ** A flexible travel pass strategy ** - It gave clear suggestions on the use of the Hokkaido Railroad Pass JR Pass. It provided a reference for whether to use the pass based on whether the tourists simply wanted to save money, the length of the trip, whether they needed to take the direct train, and other factors. For example, if you want to save money, you can use the bus/non-direct train; if the travel time is short and you want to play more places, it is more cost-effective to use the travel pass, and the price of the 3-day ticket, 5-day ticket, and 7-day ticket is given for selection.
