Publisher's Synopsis
Known as much for its summertime activities as its annual snow festival, Sapporo is the fifth largest city in Japan. The downtown district is divided by the mile-long Odori Park, a strip dotted with flower gardens, fountains, and plenty of benches. Other areas of the city are beautified by Shinto shrines and the Toyohira River. The city is also the capital of the Hokkaido district, an area known for being Japan's premier food location. From Susukino's entertainment district to the TV tower, Sapporo has a lot to offer at any time of the year.
