Located at the heart of Sapporo, the Botanic Garden is home to scenic views of greenery. Its main purpose is research, but visitors are always welcome to stroll around and appreciate the great representation of how beautiful our environment should be. It is divided into a couple of sections, with each having its own "specialty" that guarantees to capture what's there to love about the place and our nature.
As mentioned, the garden has three parts: the alpine garden, the Ainu Museum, and the greenhouse. All three will be interesting experiences. So, visit all three! NOTE: Only the greenhouse is open during the winter season.
It's an 8-12-minute walk from the southwest of Soen Station (Hakodate Main Line)
It is opened from 9:00am to 4:30pm
