Have afternoon tea and buy souvenirs in the historical sites! Sapporo Kita Karo

Kitakaro is not only a well-known souvenir brand in Hokkaido, but did you know that its main store is also very unique and worth a visit? This main store is located next to the old Hokkaido government building and Odori Park. The predecessor of this building was the Hokkaido Government Library, and it was later rebuilt by the super famous Japanese architect Tadao Ando, ​​who designed this place that combines elements of desserts, art culture, and historical culture! You can also appreciate the works of master Ando Tadao in the downtown area. The first floor of our store is a spacious store, and the second floor is a cafe space. The walls on the second floor, which are made up of bookcases, and the high ceilings are very eye-catching. The ceiling is shaped like an arch with white concrete, and the gentle lines of the arch are highlighted by light and shadow. The preserved ancient red brick walls and the Western classical-style stairs are very distinctive and a great place to enjoy the "Dream Puffs" at Beiguolou!
