Hokkaido, the northernmost part of Japan. It is a separated island rich in natural beauty, wildlife and unique culture that comes from the indigenous Ainu people, somehow being more mystical than other parts in Japan. Hokkaido boasts top ski resorts, stunning summer flower fields, and unspoiled national parks. Popular destinations include Rusutsu, Niseko, Furano, and Shiretoko Peninsula. Ideal for hiking, cycling, and winter sport.
