180719 Hokkaido Historical Village

Hokkaido Historical Village - To reach there, we need to first take a train to Sapporo Shin Station. From there we take a bus directly to Hokkaido Historical Village. It is not a long journey. So it is only worth going there if you like to see old building.
Most of the buildings were donated. So you can imagine how they move them here.
Building from the past being moved here for display
A big compound

An old Photo Studio

Happy to find apple tree here.
There are many other buildings to see and you can spend a entire day here.

How to get there
From Sapporo Station, take a train to Shin Sapporo station - 260yen
From Shin Sapporo Station, take a bus to Hokkaido Historical Village - 210 yen. (You can check with Japan Tourist information for the bus number)
We paid 800yen each for the entrance ticket
