Reviews from Real Guests:

Trip.com User: The TV Tower is in Datong Park, not far from Hokkaido University and Bono. The tower is very spectacular below. There are three modes in the morning, evening and night. There are tickets to the tower, and the clock tower pass 800 yen. The night view is also beautiful, but the height is limited and the view is not so wide. Because I saw the night view of Hakodate Mountain and Xiaoyu Tiangou Mountain, it was not so amazing. Still more recommended. There is a Hami melon-flavored thin biscuit in the Tane gift shop. The TV tower is limited. I can't buy it at the airport duty-free shop.

Trip.com User: If you are traveling in winter, don't miss the Day of the White Light Tree in the downtown area from late November. There are many Christmas ornaments available at the Chase Park and the Christmas Market. Whether it's sightseeing or dating, you can not only walk around and enjoy the lights, but also have a meal or coffee while you look down at the lights in the room.
