Then i guest i can skip the shiroi koibito park then haha

actually i find the park quite nice leh. can sign up for their cookie making/decorating class, or just enjoy their hot chocolate drink at their cafe.

the snack itself not say not nice... but too common until a bit sianz. but still good to buy back for friends and colleagues. but buy from airport lah, no need to buy from the park and carry around

Mt Moiwa is nice and I went there earlier this month. I used their tram and then free shuttle bus.

I went at night for the night views.

I had a déjà vu because it feels the same as
Mount Lycabettus in Athens which I went in May 2016.

I quite liked the park when I went. Location is nice too - it's literally on the way to Otaru anyway (from sapporo). No need to spend hours and hours there, take the tour look at the production line and all the ppl making the chocolates & the cookies then sign up for one of the baking / cookie decorating classes. Nice for couples and families with kids, perhaps not as nice for single travellers / groups of guys.

Otaru is famous for music boxes and little glass miniatures. You'll see when you get there. Whether "must get" or not depends on you I guess.

Otaru is also "home" to LeTao (famous cold cheesecake). That one is must eat I guess. I bought two whole cheesecake and put in the hotel fridge, next day road trip eat in the car.

Sapporo to me the "must do's" are basically all food related lol - for example must go eat genghis khan and drink beer, must go one of the crab kaiseki places (eg kani honke) and eat crab, etc.

the music box museum/store is nice. if got time, can customize ur own music box... choose the music u want, choose a base, add decorations etc. not cheap though.

just opposite the music box museum is a cafe where u can keep the coffee cup after ordering ur coffee. they have a place for u to wash the cups and then provide cardboard box for u to pack the cup back. quite a nice place to relax, and some of the cups quite pretty.. good as a souvenir
