Otaru Kihinkan (The Old Aoyama Villa)

  It is generally known that Otaru is prospered by herring, so Herring Mansion is very popular in Hokkaido. Herring Mansion is called of Nishin Goten in Japanese.


   I have been to the Old Aoyama Villa with my friends. It is a splendid villa in the mountain where we can see beautiful flowers in summer and autumn.
(Photos took by June)



Winter in Hokkaido is very cold, but if you go to the Otaru Kihinkan, you will see the special scenery for your heart-warming. The golden world! I have seen the similar interior decoration in China, so it is very impressive to me. 




   I am looking forward to the snow-covered landscape looked down at The Old Aoyama Villa this year. Would you like to go with me?   Waiting for you!

Winter in Otaru

   My dear, have you enjoyed your summer vacation in Otaru ? Have you fallen in love to Otaru for its beautiful scenery ? I also have taken many photos of my favourite canal and ship.




   As you know, winter in Hokkaido is so cold that it needs to prepare heavy dress, but if you come into a world covered snow, how do you feel? These photos were took on the Tengu Mountain in last winter. We are able to overlook overall view of Otaru.


   Then, Otaru is also famous of glass products. I have made a field trip to a glass factory named of The Glass Studio in Otaru.



Here is the scene of glass making.
