During the winter from January to March every year, the C11 steam train runs between Kushiro and Shirocha on the Kushiro Main Line. The nostalgic steam locomotive and train design have attracted many railway fans. On the SL train, you can enjoy the pleasure of traveling in a snow-white wetland. In winter, red-crowned cranes are fed along the route, so there is a high chance of seeing red-crowned cranes up close. The car is equipped with a charcoal-type vertical stove, which is full of nostalgic atmosphere.Kushiro City · 616m from downtown

Lake Akan is the largest settlement of the indigenous Ainu people. They make a living by fishing and hunting, and believe in pantheism. Owls, white bears, foxes, etc. are all totems of their faith. The Ainu Village showcases the indigenous culture, and the small shops on the street sell a wide range of souvenirs and exquisite wood carvings. There is a giant eagle wood carving at the entrance of the village with its wings spread out.

There is almost no trace of artificial modification here, and the original natural scenery is completely preserved. Most of the area is surrounded by reeds, and part of it is covered with moss. Looking from the observation deck, the scenery is still very spectacular.

If you have the opportunity to visit Hokkaido, don't miss it and go to the "Red-crowned Crane Nature Park" in Kushiro City to see the "Red-crowned Cranes" that come to the Kushiro Wetlands in Hokkaido every year to spend the winter! Currently, there are a total of 12 wild Red-crowned Cranes that have been protected and treated in the "Red-crowned Crane Nature Park" in Kushiro!

The Hinohushihara is the most popular retro train in Hokkaido. You can feel the slow running of the steam train back then, and feel a different feeling.

At first, I didn't want to go, but I found a destination to start shopping. I didn't think it was so beautiful. I believe the sunset was more beautiful. I missed it. Anyway, sunset is also beautiful. This kind of blue is deep in my heart.
