Family Travel – To visit autumn Hokkaido

In the beginning of October, My husband and I arranged a family travel for his parents and mine. Considering the flying time and the interesting place, we decided to visit Hokkaido in Japan. Hokkaido is quite beautiful in autumn and all of us like to sightsee the country and enjoy hot spring in Japan. In whole week, we completely released our pressure and had a very good time.

We visited Hokkaido from west to east, First day, we went to Toya-Lake to see the fireworks. There were the firework-shows every night in October. The show was so brilliant and incredibly beautiful. Second day, we started our maple leaves sightseeing.



Sou-un gorge is located in the Great Snow Mountain whose altitude is higher than the other places in Hokkaido, so the maple leaves become red earlier. There are two special waterfalls, large one is named “galaxy” and small one is “shooting star”. In the early morning, we got up to take walking beside the river ran through the mountains. The scenery looked like a beautiful picture. I felt everything became static at the moment. When the wind was blowing on my face, my worries seemed to go with the tender wind.



Don’t forget famous garden known as Frano in the middle of Hokkaido. The landforms of Furano are almost up and down hills. The farmers planted many kinds of flowers as a puzzle. Even if, the flowering season is in summer, we can also get so many nice photographs. Next time we must arrange another trip for Furano’s flowers in summer.





Last, we lived beside Akan-Lake. Here was a little bit cold when we got up early. We got a surprised gift in the early morning. A layer of fog was covered on the lake, which looked so mystical. I took a deep breath and drunk the fresh air in my lungs. Whole body seemed to be refreshed and cleaned. More important thing was our parents were pleased in the whole trip. We promise we will visit Hokkaido again.
