Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    You can have a very good feel about this place when there are few people. Try to avoid the peak time of 5 - 6:30 pm when people finish their skiing

    Great dry snow, beautifully groomed, uncrowded and friendly. Enjoyed skiing without queues, worth two flights and bus to get there from Australia. Most reliable snow I have found anywhere.

    Located right cross the New Prince Hotel, this garden was a filming location of famous Japanese TV drama – Kaze no Garden. It is a very beautiful garden to stroll around; you would have more feeling about this garden if you had seen that special Japanese TV drama. There are many different types of flowers and we also went down to the Rose garden and unfortunately it was not in their blooming season and the garden was under the maintenance.

    Note:
    1. It is a bit far away from the JR station, you need to take bus and get off at the New Prince Hotel. It takes about 30 min and costs about something around $2-$3, don’t remember exact amount, but not expensive. Only issue is you have to get the bus schedule to go back to JR Station if you are not stay in that town. The bus does not go back frequently, every 1 hour? Not too sure.

    2. You need to pay 800 Japanese Yen entrance fee.

    3. Put on mosquito repellent to protect yourself.

    4. Inside the garden, there is a place to buy ice cream, and there is also a toilet facility.

    Exciting experience to make glass beads from scratch. The workshop involved making 1 glass bead, yes, just 1, but it's about the experience of making it from scratch with fire. One gets to appreciate the process, even if it's the simplest part of the art. I'm glad we pushed to have this workshop vs just decorating with glass (which was also fun - some folks in our group did these). We divided ourselves to do 3 types of workshops, one person one workshop so we could experience the different activities. Everybody was happy.

    Although their specialty was for "cracked" glass, I personally enjoyed more the section of the store that had miniature glass products. They have a vast collection! It had the classic ones like animals, characters, etc but also some funny and unique ones. I bought a tiny toilet bowl with poop LOL. I wanted something unique. The glow-in-the-dark ones are also very cool.

    We came to Furano traveling through Hokkaido for the festival and other activities - always on the 28th and 29th of July. Foreigners can participate and get their bellies painted, dress up (provided) and learn the dance and join the parade as well. My 8 year old loved it - as did my 10 year old and husband. Lots of fun. The parade is 7-8pm, but sign up is 3-5pm both days. Earlier in the day, there is dancing and more, food vendors in the evening too. A very fun local event to celebrate the 'belly-button' of Hokkaido - Furano!

    We took the evening hot air balloon ride. We enjoyed ourselves especially the kids. As we had many people in our group, the kids were offered to go up the second time for free. They were very happy. We were just a little disappointed that the ride was not as high as we thought. Overall we had a good time

    This is certainly an express way up any mountain. The wait is a little bit sometimes and if you miss one vehicle expect to be waiting up to half an hour. But overall a good experience.

    Don't expect to be impressed, this is a tiny winery with middling wine. You can take a self tour here but there's very little to see of the winery.

    The best part is the free samples of wine and the ability to drink with a view of the mountains if that's your thing, that's my thing.

    The tour itself isn't worth the steps in your pedometer. The free samples were alright, I didn't like any of their reds but liked a few of their whites. You can pay for some premium samples.

    I ended up buying two bottles of 🍷 and having one while sitting with the view of the mountains.

    Most people drove here, I walked here from my hotel in town, which took about an hour. There is no public transportation that comes here.

    It's worth checking out if you're curious about Japanese wine like I was.

    I just reviewed the story of this home and all the pictures and feel very refreshing to know someone who had a good idea of serine life. I am very impressed by the builder and his theory of life style. I believe he enjoyed the simple nature life and appreciated the nature which provided him a peace within. I am very proud of the man who built this home and lived in it all his life. Hope I'll be able to visit the home one day.

    We visited Rokugou-no-mori(ROKUGOU FOREST)
    Last week. Cos we have never been there.
    If you are not interested in Japanese drama called Kita-no-kunikara(from north country), recommend you not to visit here
    To watch old house you are required to pay 500 yen to 1200yen
    After watching felt very expensive!
