Otaru Travel Guide 2023
The BEST Things to Do in Otaru, Japan｜Otaru Day Trip
Otaru is known for its beautiful nightscape, with the night view from Mount Tengu being one of the three most beautiful nightscapes in Hokkaido. The night view from Mt. Tengu, which is compact and beautiful due to the close proximity of the sea, the city, and the mountains, is a fascinating sight from any direction.
Tengu, accessible by ropeway or car, offers night views of Otaru City from four viewpoints. Because it is very close to the city, you can enjoy a spectacular night view.
Mt. Kenashiyama Viewpoint is slightly lower than Mt. Tengu, but offers a wider view of the city lights than Mt. Tengu and is the second most famous panoramic night view spot in Otaru after Mt.
Suitengu is just above Sakai-machi Street. After sightseeing in Otaru is over, this night view provides an up-close view of ships at anchor and Otaru Port.
Hiraiso Park is also known as a cherry blossom viewing spot. There is an observatory right next to the parking lot where you can see the night view of Otaru City, especially the bay area. You can appreciate the night view while riding the bus.
Asahi Observatory is located on a small hill about 190 meters above sea level behind Otaru Station and offers the second most beautiful panoramic night view after Tenguyama and Kenashiyama.
Temiya Park offers a beautiful night view of Otaru City even from the roadside, and is recommended if you want to take a night view drive.
