Accessible via a scenic ropeway ride from the hot spring town, the Noboribetsu Bear Park is a world-class bear theme park located at the 550-meter summit of Mount Shihorei. Inside the park, visitors can observe majestic Ezo brown bears up close as they playfully beg for treats despite their giant sizes. A highlight is the thrilling "Human Cage," a glass-walled viewing area where you can feel the bears' breathing, offering an intense experience as if you were the one inside the cage. Featuring dynamic and clever bear shows, the world's only Brown Bear Museum, and an observation deck overlooking Lake Kuttara—one of Japan's clearest lakes—it is an ultimate entertainment spot for the whole family.

Muroran City

Muroran City, on the Iburi peninsula of southwestern Hokkaido, is the industrial heartland of Hokkaido — a city where massive steel, chemical and oil refineries cluster on a dramatic harbor peninsula jutting into the Pacific Ocean. After dark, the resulting 'industrial nightscape' — designated as a Japan Night View Heritage site — is a genuinely spectacular fusion of harbor reflections and factory lights, a sight that has become increasingly celebrated on social media in recent years. 'Hakucho Bridge' (White Swan Bridge), spanning 1,380 metres as the longest suspension bridge in eastern Japan, offers dramatic day and night panoramas of Muroran...
