The Nikka Whiskey Yoichi Distillery is a top-notch distillery located just outside of Otaru in Yoichi. Visitors can take a self-guided tour of the grounds and then sample different Nikka whiskeys in the tasting room. If you're interested in whiskey, this is definitely worth a visit!
They have a brand new museum that just launched a couple of months ago (aug 20121) that has a lot of interesting info about Nikka (like how they created the logo, other alcohol they’ve made: gin, vodka even).
The tour is free but you have to reserve in advance. Make sure you don’t drive if you want to have a sip as they have stickers to indicate you’re not drinking
They have a limit of how many bottles each person can buy at the shop, but they sell the limited Yoichi distillery editions!

Fantastic place to visit if you are a whisky lover. The free tour requires booking ahead of time (I did it online via their Japanese website with the help of google translate). Note if you are travelling from Sapporo via train, there are very limited trains heading to Yoichi and can restrict what tour times you can make. I booked a 9:00am tour and caught a 7:14am train from Sapporo to Yoichi arriving at 8:30am. It is a short 5 minute walk from Yoichi station to the distillery grounds.
Tour is all spoken in Japanese but the tour lady and security guard have these little laminated cards in English explaining each stage of the tour which was helpful. At the end of the tour they provide three free whisky tastings as well which is nice. Whisky for breakfast. Breakfast of champions =)
After the tour you can then visit the museum and tasting bar (can only taste a maximum of 3). You can also visit their shop for well priced bottles of whisky's. Tip - there is also a restaurant as well which you can further order a whisky tasting set to sample three more Nikka whisky's, I cannot remember which whisky's they were though on the menu.

Manage to get a booking to enter the distillery tour in advance. Advance reservation required. It was free. It was a great experience and seeing the history and process of whisky making. The free tasting was such a treat. I wouldn’t come again though because I think it’s good enough to come once and experience it all also because it’s much further out from the city.

Great side trip from Sapporo. The guided tour is only in Japanese, but the videos and pamphlet are more than required. The tasting room is amazing. You can get whiskey that can be found no where else at minimal cost. I only wish you could buy the bottles of what you enjoyed.

This distillery brought back bittersweet memories of my first trip here back in 2016. A guided tour is available but needs to pre-book way ahead. While I took JR from Sapporo to Yoichi 7 years ago, this time I drove a rental car all the way here.
Without guided tour, we just walked around admiring the powdery view of the distillates covered in snow; then I went to their tasting room while the kids played with snow outside. They had changed a lot since my last visit and it’s more elegant and bigger space displaying the whiskies and history of the distillery. I paid for whisky tasting flight before buying the distillery exclusive whisky from the retail shop.

Representing Japanese whiskey made in Japan.
Museum where you can feel the effort and talent of the makers is free to see.(booking required for tour)
There is a paid tasting corner where you can try some whiskies that you can only try here. It is not that crowded in the afternoon on weekdays.
The souvenir store is well stocked with original goods, and many wealthy Chinese buy the limited edition whisky.
The restaurant is delicious! However, there is no children's menu. This place is not big, so the seats were almost full even on weekdays.

Reservations required, usually one month in advance. But worth it if you're a whisky lover. Distillery was beautiful in the winter snow. Free tasting of apple wine, super Nikka, Yoichi single malt. Paid tasting for some never to be seen elsewhere whisky such as Yoichi Single Cask 10 years. Museum was very informative too.
Lim Chong Yan — Google review
Best place to visit when you are in Yoichi! We came especially to visit the distillery and it worth a visit!
Free admission to enter, wonderful environment, the building are well planned, good floor plan and most important, spectacular whiskey!
The distillery offers free whiskey tasting, although the selection of the free tasting are more entry level bottles, the quality is still good! On the other hand, the distillery also offers a separate bar area for paid tasting which includes selective award winning bottles, this is definitely one of the best places to go if you are a whiskey lover!
Don’t forget to purchase souvenirs at the merchandise store when leaving!
Luis Hsu — Google review
A nice visit for those who enjoy whiskey.
A lot of the buildings were closed due to snow/winter but we still got a good view of the grounds.
If you don’t speak Japanese, stay at the front of the tour as the guide will have a sheet explaining what is being said in English.
The tour guide and staff were very kind and generous, squeezing me into a last minute tour.
Make sure you try the samples, I’d recommended the Apple wine or Highballs.
Stuart Harper — Google review
The tour is speechless — it’s thorough, time-efficient, well-organized, and takes you to a really close look of the whisky making process. And it’s for free? I’ve lost my words. The whole place, aside from and on top of the tour experience, is simply inspiring and extraordinary. So much worth of your two-way train ride from Otaru even just for this distillery tour itself.
Kyuwon Lee — Google review
This is a very interesting place to visit, I believe that you don’t have to be a whisky drinker to appreciate the history behind this fascinating company, I’ve often seen the logo and the neon sign in Sapporo but never gave any thought about the product. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get on the 70-minute tour as it was fully booked but I strolled through the museum to see the different whiskies that have been produced over time, this company actually started out as a fruit juice company while waiting for the whisky to mature, after the museum stroll I couldn’t resist spending some time and money in the souvenir shop where I bought a single malt for 68,000yen which I believe is quite reasonable. This is a must visit destination but book early to avoid the disappointment of missing out on the tour.
Shinboner — Google review
While there was no English tour available when we were there, one of the security staff held cards with information about the distillery while the tour guide talked. As I have visited many distilleries, I was more interested in seeing the site than learning about the distillation method anyway.
It was a pleasure to visit Nikka and learn more about the founder and his wife Rita. Their story would make an excellent movie. The obstacles they overcame for Nikka to become the first Japanese whisky distillery are many.
Wonderful place to visit, and Yoichi is a nice place as well.

The distillery is very conveniently located just across the Yoichi railway station. However trains are not very regular, so it takes some planning to match the train arrivals with the time of the tour. The tour is free, though reservations must be made in advance on their official website. There are many time slots each day to choose from, but it gets filled up fast, so if you have decided a date to visit, be sure to make the reservation 4 weeks earlier (as they accept reservations up to 4 weeks in advance). The tour is in Japanese, but instructions will be provided for downloading the "MyGuide" app and connecting to the pre-recorded audio guide. The grounds are beautiful, and at the end of the tour you get to sample 3 drinks (Apple Wine, Super Nikka, and Single-malt Yoichi) for free. If you are into collecting stamps, then there are supposedly 4 locations with stamps of different colors that will complete the "Thank you for coming!" picture. Unfortunately we only realized this when we were leaving, so could not get the other colors stamped on the card. Highly recommended.

Amazing whiskies! Some of my fav and the sole reason I got into fine whisky! It was a bottle of 21 year old Nikka Taketsuri that really opened my mind and changed my taste buds from Johny Walker Black to single malts! Since then I’ve embarked on a deep and expensive journey of enjoying fine whisky from the around the world!

It’s been years since I wanted to come here and I finally made it.
Highly recommend it to any whisky / Nikka lovers.
I arrived in Yoichi at 8:30am but my tour was only at 10am. They allowed me to cruise around the distillery grounds, Museum, tasting bar and gift shop.
Tour start at 10am and it was brilliant. You’ll have to see if for yourself when you come.
Staff were super helpful and friendly. Perfect side day trip if you’re staying in Sapporo.
A few days ago I went also to Nikka Miyagikyo distillery in Sendai. They’re both wonderful. There were a bit less option of tasting premium whiskys here at Yoichi, also the gift shop had less options of bottles. I guess because Yoichi is busier.
Overall, amazing! Worth coming all the way up here and taste the best whiskys and learn a bit of these masterpieces!

Kakizaki Shōten is a seafood restaurant and market in Hokkaido, Japan, offering high-quality seafood at great value. The restaurant serves a variety of fresh seafood dishes, including the popular Masataka set which includes fried fish, sashimi, crab miso soup, rice, seaweed and Japanese pickles. They also offer Uni rice made with Russian Uni. The establishment also functions as a small supermarket where visitors can shop for fresh seafood to take home.
Doubles as both A seafood Market and restaurant as well a small supermarket. The seafood are freshly sourced everyday and one of the best places to purchase Hokkaido Crab. They have a delivery service to mail the crab to other parts of Japan. The restaurant itself has delicious fresh seafood direct from the market and cheaper in comparison to the city and other fish markets close to Otaru station. Definitely worth stopping by!

The best. So delicious. Currently contemplating how soon I can handle second lunch. I got the seafood variety bowl (kaisen donburi) and it was perfect. There are too many other delicious choices on both the standard and seasonal menu.
No line on a Monday in April at 11am.
Edit: and absolutely no line at 3:15pm for second lunch 😅 the salmon and salmon roe bowl (itokodon) is divine, and the seasonal ruby crab is also very delicious. Silky perfect smooth salmon, I’ll remember this meal for a long time.

High cp value seafood restaurant. Must try after visiting Nikka Whisky Distilling.
A lunch set called Masataka set only charge you ¥1410, which includes a whole piece of fried fish, 4 picecs of Sashimi, a large bowl of crab miso soup, a bowl of rice, Seaweed and Japanese pickles.
Uni rice is also bargain and using Uni from Russia. However, it is also tasty.
When you are going to leave, do not forget to shop around the seafood at the supermarket at the first floor. King crab, Hairy crab, prawn, Abalone and various kinds of fish are not expensive.
Nitori Kanko Kaju-en, formerly known as Yoichi Yamamoto Kanko Kaju-en, is a fruit orchard that offers guests the opportunity to personally pick fresh produce throughout the harvest season. Visitors can choose from an assortment of seasonal fruits including apples, cherries, and strawberries. The farm provides a unique experience for those seeking a hands-on approach to farming and agriculture.
Great experience picking and eating fresh fruit. In season then were grapes, apples, peaches and prunes. Delish!

Fugoppe Cave is a historic site located in Yoichi town at the base of Shakotan Peninsula, just an hour's drive from Sapporo. It is one of the oldest historical sites in Japan and houses petroglyphs and ancient relics. The small museum built around the cave showcases carefully preserved murals, offering visitors a glimpse into life during the Jomon period.
These cave carvings are awesome!

In the past, I couldn't grow rice in Hokkaido, so I knew for the first time that there was no Yayoi period and there was a Zoku-Jomon period.
It's a small facility, but it's very interesting.

Very unique rock formation along the beach and interesting to photograph indeed. I went early spring but I believe it would be equally beautiful with snow.

This review is mostly for the restaurant attached to the winery sales floor. We've enjoyed lunch here several times and while it is not the cheapest place, the lunch set menu includes self serve soup and salad plus coffee and tea. Pizza is made in a stone pizza oven and other dishes are also available. Personally I would prefer a slightly crisper and thinner pizza dough and the option to select toppings instead of the (sometimes rather weird Japanese style) selections offered. But in an area with not so many good restaurants, this is certainly worth a repeat visit.
We've been to the wine sales floor once and can't really comment too much on that. Yoichi wine still has a ways to go before it becomes internationally competitive, in our opinion.

We enjoyed a relaxing time in an open space under the bright sunshine.

(Translated by Google) I drove from Sapporo to Yoichi Winery!
The explanations about the wines were like going to the place where the wines were on display to see them yourself, but the explanations were detailed and easy to understand!
There were two types of wine to sample, white wine and red wine, and we were able to compare them!
It's really easy to understand when you compare the drinks!
There were many wines for sale in the tasting area, and I was so moved by the delicious taste that I ended up buying two bottles of white wine!
I'm very satisfied!
Then I went to the cafe next door and bought some soft serve ice cream🍦!
This is also refreshing and very satisfying!
If I had time, I would have liked to try the restaurant's pizza 🍕, but I didn't have much time until dinner, so I gave up!
It was a very good winery!
Please go and check it out!
Recommended!

試飲する場所には販売用のワインがずらりと並べられていて、試飲の美味しさに心が動き白ワインを2本買ってしまいました!
大満足です!
そして隣のカフェへ行きソフトクリーム🍦を購入!
コレもさっぱりしていて大満足!
時間があればレストランのピザ🍕も食べてみたかったのですが、夕食までの時間があまりなかったので、今回は断念しました!

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on my way from Otaru to Akaigawa. I heard that you can tour the factory, but I didn't know about it, so I didn't do it. However, for a limited time, there was an exhibition by a picture book author called Yuka Yamauchi, and I really liked the fantasy-like drawings for children, so I looked at it for a while. I was lucky to see some unexpectedly wonderful works!

Candle Rock is an impressive geological formation located 500 meters from the coast. Its towering, cooled lava spindle resembles a melting candle and offers stunning views of the sea. It is a popular tourist destination in Hokkaido, Japan and can be easily accessed from the dock with navigation support. The coastline surrounding Candle Rock does not have any unpleasant fishing port smell but instead showcases the natural beauty of Shakotan Blue.
I just love how amazing nature can be! Along the coast, there are many awesome rock formations.

(Translated by Google) The coastline of Yoichi is very beautiful, and the sea around Candle Rock is also beautiful. Shioya, Otaru City〰️The coastline that stretches all the way to Shakotan feels cool. The beach in Yoichi has beautiful sandy beaches and is a perfect place for camping. Is the sea more beautiful than Orchid Island, Shioya, and Zenibako? In the summer, families come here to enjoy camping. When you go to the port, there are people fishing.
? Isn't the Yoichi beach wonderful around Candle Rock?

(Translated by Google) According to the materials, Candle Rock is an uninhabited island 🏝️ that exists 550m off the coast of Toyohama Town in the Sea of Japan.
This rock is designated as part of the "Niseko Shakotan Otaru Coast National Monument" ✌️.
This rock is over 45m above sea level and stands up long and narrow.
It used to be a rounder and thicker rock, but when it was hit by the Shakotan Peninsula offshore earthquake in 1940, it broke in half and became the current size, and in 2016, a part of the tip was missing. , It is said that the shape has become sharper than before.
When running from Otaru, the coastal areas and coastal areas of the Shakotan Peninsula have continuous cliffs. There are strange rocks here and there on the coast.
I knew two other candle rocks, so I looked it up and found that there are other rocks called "Candle Rocks" in Hokkaido, Rishiri-cho, Rishiri-gun, Tomamae-cho, Tomamae-gun, Setana-cho, Kudo-gun, and Akkeshi. There are six locations, Hamanaka-cho, Kudo and Kushiro-cho, Kudo-gun.
The origin of the name is different in each district, but when I saw it, I was convinced ✌️.
(Original)
資料では、ローソク岩は日本海の豊浜町沖の550mに存在する岩で無人島🏝️である。
この岩は「ニセコ積丹小樽海岸国定公園」の一部に指定されているのだ✌️。
この岩は、海面から45mを越える高さがあり、細長くそそり立つのだ。
昔はもっと丸く、太い岩だったのだが、1940年発生した積丹半島沖地震の際のツナミで、半分に割れてしまい現在の大きさになり、さらに2016年に先端の一部がが欠けて、それまでより鋭角な形となったとある。
小樽から走りすると、積丹半島の海岸部分や沿岸部分は、断崖が連続する。沿岸にはあちこちに奇岩というのか、珍しい形の岩がある。
他の二ヶ所のローソク岩を知っていたので、調べて見たら、北海道に「ローソク岩」と呼ばれる岩は、ここ以外に利尻郡利尻町、苫前郡苫前町、久遠郡せたな町、厚岸郡浜中町、釧路郡釧路町と六ヶ所あるのだ。
それぞれの地区で名の由来は別々だが、見て見るといずれも納得してしまった✌️。

(Translated by Google) Candle Rock is an island floating 550m off the coast of Toyohama Town, in the northern part of Yoichi Town.
This candle rock is a brittle rock made from hyaloclastite, a type of lava that hardens underwater, so it was broken in half by the tsunami of the 1940 earthquake, and part of it was chipped off in 2016. The current height is 45m.

(Translated by Google) I could see something like that while driving, but I wanted to stop and take a look, so I pulled into the parking lot that seemed to be the closest. Immediately after exiting the north side of Wakkake Tunnel, there is a road that goes down to the sea side, and it looks like the Candle Rock Observation Parking Lot.
It was close enough that I could take pictures with my smartphone. If you take a picture with a telephoto lens, you can also see the tongari at the tip.
In 2016, the tip seems to have been slightly rounded to become more acute.

2016年に先端が少しかけて、より鋭角になったようです。
Fantastic recreation of a Matsumae clan trading post. Loved it! Not much explanation in English, unfortunately, and the place is not exactly easy to find, but well worth a visit!
Luca Cotta Ramusino — Google review
This Ainu-Wajin trading post is actually newer than you may expect as it precedes the annexation of Hokkaido by a mere 20 years or so. That being said, the admission fee is modest and the place provides some shade on a hot summer day.
You may as well give it a shot if you came to Yoichi for the whisky museum, but you are not missing much if you skip it

(Translated by Google) It's quite a walk from Yoichi Station. It conveys to future generations the state of affairs of the Unjo family, who handled trade between the Ainu and the Japanese. The inside is spacious but dark, so it may be a little difficult to walk around. Also, the stairs to the second floor are steep. The reception is in a small hut opposite this building.

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on my way home from the Nikka Whiskey distillery.
Unless the Space Memorial Museum is your destination, I don't think it's a fairly small roadside station and the atmosphere doesn't make you want to eat or buy something.
I think that many people probably take a picture in front of the model made at the Space Shuttle Cultural Festival in front of the Space Memorial Hall, stop by the restroom, and return after staying for 10 minutes.
In Hokkaido, roadside stations are being closed and closed one after another, so I'm a little worried about this too...

Ed T — Google review
(Translated by Google) This is a roadside station that spans the universe and is said to be Mamoru Mori's hometown. Although there is a fee, ``Yoichi Space Memorial Space Dome'' is worth a visit. You can see many exhibits including information about JAXA and materials from Mamoru Mori's trip to space. You can also see a full-scale model of Hayabusa and a scaled-down model of the space telescope. Also, when I visited, there was an exhibition of the Artemis Project.
There is also an exhibition from the Jomon period that is connected to Yoichi. I think it's very rare to find a facility where you can enjoy both the oldest and the most cutting edge facilities.
Afterwards, I think it's a must-see place for a drive to explore the history of Fugoppe Cave and the stone circles.

毛利衛さんの故郷ということで宇宙をかけて展開されている道の駅。有料とはなりますが「余市宇宙記念館スペース童夢」は一見の価値あり。JAXAの情報や毛利衛さんが宇宙に行った時の資料なとたくさんの展示が見れます。はやぶさの実物大模型や宇宙望遠鏡の縮小モデルなども見れます。また私が訪れた時はアルテミス計画の展示も行われていました。
そして余市縁の続縄文時代の展示もあります。最古と最先端両方が味わえる施設は非常に珍しいと思います。

It would be a good idea to plan on spending the night in your car, park your car here, and sample some whisky.
I used it to sleep in the car.
I remember coming once a long time ago and seeing the exhibits.
It feels nostalgic
There's a Yakiniku restaurant across the street, so you might as well use that.
The next day, I found a day trip hot spring nearby.
There is a large parking lot in the back, so if you prefer a quieter place, we recommend that parking lot.

(Translated by Google) 2023.9 There is a large parking lot, a store, and a toilet, so I use it for lunch breaks during work. After the coronavirus is over, the number of tourist cars will increase, and the parking lot on the public road side will be crowded, but the parking lot behind the restroom building is larger, so it is unlikely that you will be unable to park. There is also the Yoichi Space Memorial Museum on the premises, and although there is a fee, there are many exhibits that you can enjoy while driving with children.

2023.9 駐車場が広く、売店、トイレがある為、仕事途中の昼時の休憩などで、利用します。コロナ明けでは、観光客の車が増え、公道側の駐車場は混み合いますが、トイレの建物の裏手の駐車場は、それよりも広く、駐車出来ない事は少ないでしょう。敷地内には「余市宇宙記念館」もあり、料金はかかりますが、子供連れのドライブでは、楽しめる展示が数多くあります。
Nice small hotel. Room is very large compared to most in Japan. Staff was wonderful. Across the street from JR station and less than a block from Nikka. Bed was very very firm which made it hard to sleep, but no stars taken off as I’m a larger American and used to sleeping on soft beds. Good WiFi, hotel was as quiet as they get. I’d stay here again!

I was a server at a French restaurant
The collaboration between the sommelier and the chef who used to cook in Echabari, Spain was wonderful.
I don't usually drink that much wine.
By drinking delicious food and wine that goes well with it, I was able to enjoy the course meal even more.
The fondant chocolate for dessert was also excellent!
Since it's your birthday month, there's also a dessert plate.

I was happy to be able to go to my room right away ♡
The room is a twin room with a cypress bath.
There was also a kotatsu, so I was able to take a rest.

(Translated by Google) Used for lunch. I got a pork bowl. It was made with Yoichi brand pork Kitajima pork and had a lot of volume. The seasoning is gentle. Eggs are very common eggs, and I wanted them to be particular about them. Most people enjoyed wine from noon. It was plain clothes, but I was at work and I didn't have time to relax so much. Are you sure you want to drink twice or three times? When I refused to drink after eating, I immediately offered what I had finished eating. I knew it was a decent store, but I didn't think the service was worth it.

The hotel room I stayed in was adequate. The sound insulation was nonexistent so I was awoken in the morning by a noise of snow being cleared by heavy construction machinery.
However, the dinner service at the restaurant was perhaps the best example of local farm to table fine dining with all ingredients sourced from yoichi or nearby within Hokkaido. The chef trained in Michelan establishments in France and Spain which is reflected by his thoughtful execution of dishes which highlight the quality and freshness of the ingredients.
The local wine pairing run by the sommelier, So-san, was a beautiful match, mostly highlighting each dish by similar levels of sweetness, acidity & minerality found within the wines. Some pairings were based in contrast which broke up the flow of dishes in a playful and refreshing way. The highlights were all the white wines, the scallop dish, crab paela and the double dessert!

Exquisite food with the best of Japanese wines. The sommelier, Kuratomi-san, was very knowledgeable and happy to share his stories of the chosen wines with gourmet. Go for the Wine Pairing course if you can!

We went for Valentine's Day dinner where only a course was available for 6,000¥. I want to thank the staff for graciously accomodating our food preferences as we had somebody who doesn't eat seafood, the other oysters; but sadly, the meal failed to meet expectations. Food portions were small- even for a course meal, the interval between each dish took too long, we were left waiting uncomfortably for the next one, and taste was so-so. I had better food before. One of us couldn't eat seafood, so they had to change our clam paella into pork, but it tasted weird, and pretty much just allover oily... and burnt. I'm not new to Paella since I'm Filipino, so I'm wondering if they know what paella's really supposed to taste like. I did enjoy the squid croquette for appetizer, fried oysters, bread and chocolate cheesecake at the end of the meal but I don't recommend this place and wouldn't even think of coming back. I saw Google reviews for the place that was why I decided to go, but I think reviews were mostly for their cheesecake? I'm not really sure. Anyway, it wasn't worth the 6k I paid for.

(Translated by Google) I stayed here without meals for an urgent matter.
It cost 28,000 yen for two people for a room without meals.The staff on duty at night were pleasant and polite, but I was surprised at how bad the attitude of the staff on the phone in the morning was.
I reserved a taxi for 9:03, but when I asked for 15 minutes later, it was reserved for 25 minutes, so I had to wait a long time. You can't read the time, can you?
He didn't come, so I called him, and he said he was calling (he seemed a little angry) and asked me to wait a little longer.
Even though I was on time, I couldn't read the clock or something and it was my mistake, so I couldn't have reacted in a way that was a little off-putting.
Even though I was in a hurry, my phone wasn't answered at all, and I couldn't believe it.
I wanted to go to this inn with my husband because I had heard that the wine was delicious, but I had to stay there on short notice and stayed overnight without meals, but I don't think the response would be too different depending on the person.
The only thing that was good for this price was the cypress bath, there were only three towels, and I thought it would be okay to pay for the water and refrigerator, but they didn't have it.
It's nice to have a hair dryer and hair iron.
But that's it.
I don't know about the part-time staff, but I think they should choose their staff a little better.
The person who assisted me that night was very polite. Thank you for your concern.
The morning staff won't give their names and are quarrelsome? I've never been treated like this while staying at an inn.
When I asked the taxi driver, he told me to come in 25 minutes.
It's possible that the reservation was definitely not for 15 minutes later, so either they forgot and dispatched the ride in a hurry, or they couldn't read the clock.
They didn't apologize for the inconvenience, and even though I requested a ride from an area outside of the ride-hailing app service, they really responded poorly.
Did he lick it because there were only women?
It really couldn't happen.

素泊まりで急用のため宿泊しました。
素泊まりで2人で28000円でしたが、夜の担当のスタッフは感じが良くて丁寧でしたが、朝の電話スタッフの態度が悪すぎてびっくりしました。
9:03分にタクシーの配車を予約したのですが、十五分後にとお願いしたら二十五分配車予約にされていてとても待たされました。時間読めないんですかね。
さらにこないので電話したら、呼んでます(ちょいキレ気味)もう少しまってと言われました。
時間もきっちりいったのに時計が読めないか何かでそちらの手違いなのに逆ギレ気味の対応であり得ませんでした。
急いでいたのに電話も全然出ないし、ほんと信じられませんでした。
ワインが美味しいと聞いていて旦那と行きたいねって宿でしたが、急遽泊まることになって素泊まりしましたが、対応が人によって違いすぎていこうとは思いません。
この値段でよかったのは檜風呂だけで、タオルも三枚しかなかったし、お水も冷蔵庫に有料でも良いのであるのかと思ったらありませんでした。
ドライヤーとヘアアイロン完備なのはよいです。
でもそれだけです。
スタッフはアルバイトが知らないけど、もう少し人の人選良くした方がいいと思います。
夜対応してくださった方はとても丁寧でした。お気遣いありがとうございます。
朝のスタッフは名乗らないし喧嘩腰?みたいな口調で宿に泊まっててこんな対応されたことないです。
タクシーの方にきいたら25分に来てくださいっていわれたっていってました。
絶対15分後の予約じゃなくて忘れてて急いで配車したか、時計が読めないかのどちらかしかあり得ないです。
ご不便おかけして申し訳ありませんとかもないし、配車アプリサービス外エリアだったからお願いしたのに本当対応悪すぎます。
女性だけだったから舐めたんでしょうか。
本当にあり得なかったです。
(Translated by Google) It is located as you go up the dirt road. It's a tired-looking building, with something like a wooden ship protruding from the wall. Admission fee was 300 yen for adults. There seems to be a common admission ticket for other facilities, but since I didn't have time, I decided to enter only this one. I entered the museum without much expectations, but it is an interesting museum. There is a ship on the first floor, and as with the Fisheries Museum, there are many exhibits related to the fishing industry, but there are also earthenware and stone tools excavated from ruins in the town, items related to the Ainu people, and household items used in the past. It is displayed and explained over four floors. There are also interesting projects such as ``Doki Jii'' that resemble mascot characters, fortune telling, and museum Ogiri, and you can feel the enthusiasm of the staff.

未舗装の道路を上っていくと建っています。お疲れ気味の建物で、壁からは木造船のようなものが飛び出しています。入館料は大人300円でした。他の施設との共通入場券もあるようですが、時間がなかったので、ここだけの入館にしました。あまり期待しないで入館しましたが、どうしてどうして、興味深い博物館です。1階には船が鎮座しており、水産博物館のとおり、水産業にかかわる展示が多いですが、町内の遺跡から出土した土器や石器、アイヌ民族に関する物、昔使われていた生活用品など、4階に渡って展示・解説されています。ゆるキャラのような「土器じぃ」や、おみくじ、博物館大喜利など、面白い企画もあり、スタッフの熱意が感じられます。

(Translated by Google) This is a facility where you can feel the history of Yoichi. You can see the history of Nikka whiskey, apples, herring, etc. Personally, I thought it would be nice to have a little more history to understand how things have changed since I'm waiting for Yoichi. The exhibits are on the 1st to 4th floors, and you can see different exhibits on each floor. The location is at the top of the hill above the intersection of the town hall and police station.
(Original)
余市の歴史を感じられる施設です。ニッカウヰスキー、りんご、ニシンなどの当時の歴史を見れます。個人的には、余市待ちますので何どのように変化していったのかをわかる歴史などがもう少しあっても良いかなって思った。展示は1階から4階まであり、各階それぞれ違う展示が見れます。場所は、役場、警察署の交差点を高台に登っていく頂上にあります。

(Translated by Google) Good for understanding the history of Yoichi
I never knew such a museum existed.
Adult 300 yen
The main exhibits are about the history of Yoichi and its fishing industry, but there are also exhibits about excavated ruins and Nikka whiskey.
There are four floors, but the third floor has Ainu-related exhibits, and the interior and exhibits have been renewed.
There are a lot of books, so if you're motivated, you might be able to spend a day reading them.

余市の歴史を理解するには良い
今までこんな博物館があることを知らなかった。
大人300円
余市の歴史、漁業がメインで展示物があるが、遺跡の発掘物やら、ニッカウヰスキー関連の展示やらがある。
4階まであるが3階はアイヌ関連展示で内装も展示物がリニューアルされている。
書籍も多数あるのでやる気があれば本を読んで一日滞在することが出来るかも。

(Translated by Google) I bought a great value passport and visited 4 places including the museum and Unjouya. In addition to models of ships and banyas, there were also items to learn about Ainu culture and various exhibits that were used at fishing grounds in the past, so there was more to see than I expected. Songs that would have been sung at fishing grounds, such as Soran Bushi, are played inside the facility, creating a great atmosphere. The reception staff are also kind. The toilet is a simple flush.
(Original)
博物館や運上家等4箇所を巡るお得なパスポートを購入し来館しました。船や番屋の模型のほか、アイヌ文化を学べる品々や昔の漁場で使用していた様々な展示品があり、思っていたより見所が沢山ありました。館内にはソーラン節等の漁場で歌われていたであろう歌が流れていて雰囲気も満載です。受付の職員さんの対応も親切です。トイレは簡易水洗です。

(Translated by Google) 24/07/2021 This area facing the calm bay between Shiripa and Oshoro was probably a calm and comfortable place to settle in Yoichi Ainu, which was probably Sakhalin from the time of the Holocene glacial retreat. I think.

(Translated by Google) When I was in my third year of high school, I was guided by Mr. Konokichi, who was in charge of the school through the Board of Education.
There was a private collection museum next to his home, and now that I think about it, I can't help but realize that it was extremely valuable.
There are quite a few shell mounds in this area, so I can imagine that there were quite a few people living there.
How did the people living at that time imagine the future?

高校3年のとき教育委員会を通して管理していた子之吉さんに案内していただいたことがあります。

その時生きていた住人は未来をどう想像してたのかな~

(Translated by Google) If you like ruins, go check it out. It's hard to find on car navigation systems, and it's hard to find on Google Maps, but I used the simple map I received at the reception desk at Fugoppe Cave, where I stopped before here, as a reference.
The parking lot is quite large. I went up the stairs, but since there were no people around, I wore a bear bell just in case.
The explanation board said that there were seven circles, but many of them were broken, so it was difficult to tell which ones were the circles.
When I went all the way to the end, there was another entrance. From there, we had a good view of the ocean, and we could even see Fugoppe Cave and Candle Rock in the distance.
I imagine it is probably a tomb, but what kind of rituals did the ancient people perform while looking out at the scenery from this hill?
(Original)
遺跡好きなら行ってみてください。カーナビではわからず、Googleマップでもわかりにくいですが、ここの前に立ち寄ったフゴッペ洞窟の受付でもらった簡単なマップを参考にして来ました。
駐車場はまあまあ広いです。階段を登って行きますが、人がいない場所なので、念のため熊鈴をつけて歩きました。
解説板には7つのサークルがあると書かれてましたが、崩れてるものも多く、どれをサークルと見るかが難しい感じ。
奥まで進むと、別の登口がありました。そこから海側の眺めが良く、フゴッペ洞窟や遠くにはローソク岩も見えました。
おそらくお墓だと想像しますが、古代人はこの高台からの風景を眺めながら、どんな儀式をしていたのでしょうか。
marumon 0511 — Google review
(Translated by Google) If you want to see the stone circles, we recommend this place.
There is a parking lot if you go up the side road marked by the sign arrow on the Yoichi side of Nishizakiyama Tunnel, then go up the steep stairs and pass through the forest path and you will see it. It looks like a tomb from about 3500 years ago.
It is larger than the neighboring circles and is more worth seeing.
There is also a panoramic view of the area between Siripa and Ninjaji from the back.
This area must have been a very easy place to live, given the many ruins and topography.
It is no wonder that the tomb was built in this area to watch over it.
There are no facilities
(Original)
環状列石観るならココがオススメ。
西崎山トンネル余市側の看板矢印の脇道を上がると駐車場があります、さらに急階段を登り、森の小路を抜けると見えてきます。3500年程前の墓のようです。
近隣のサークルよりも規模が大きく見応えがあります。
また裏からはシリパ〜忍路間が一望です。
この地域にはたくさんの遺跡があることや地形からも、とても暮らしやすい土地だったんでしょう。
そこを見守るこの地にお墓を造ったのも頷けます。
施設は何もありません

(Translated by Google) There are signs along the way so you can drive to the parking lot.
There is a historical site after clearing a lot of stairs and walking along a well-maintained promenade.
To be clear, it's the mountaintop.
For those who are not interested, it may look like just stones scattered around, but it is wonderful to see that it has been maintained by removing undergrowth and fallen leaves.

I learned about the existence of stone circles at Fugoppe Cave.
Stopped here with the Ninja Road stone circle.
After climbing the stairs and walking through the forest, I saw it!
It's a little smaller than Shinobuji, but I'm glad it has a nice atmosphere.
It is important to create an atmosphere that makes people think that it is a historical ruin.
I didn't know that there were ruins like this in Hokkaido, so it was a good learning experience.

(Translated by Google) Climb 99 stone steps from the parking lot. From there, walk horizontally for about 3 minutes to arrive.
On the road to the parking lot, grass from the sides is overhanging the road.
The explanatory signboard said that seven stone circles remain. It's hard to know which seven are unless you go along with someone who knows more about them and explain them to you, or study them in advance (how...). Which stones are arranged in a ring?
From the parking lot, passing by the stone circles, there is a nice view of the ocean. You can also see Candle Rock in the distance.

駐車場から石段を99段登ります。そこから3分ほど水平に歩いて到着です。

駐車場から環状列石を通り過ぎて海側の景色は良いです。遠くにローソク岩も望めます。
(Translated by Google) I used it when sightseeing in Yoichi. Not only can you get sightseeing information about Yoichi, but you can also rent bicycles (not available during the winter season; we recommend checking the official website for information on facilities that use them), so this is a recommended place for those sightseeing in Yoichi.
The bicycles you can rent range from silver bikes to electric bicycles, so I think it's a good idea to rent a bicycle that suits your physical strength (Yoichi has many hills, so if you're not confident in your physical strength, rent an electric bicycle). I feel relieved).
(Original)
余市観光の際に利用しました。余市の観光情報を得られるのはもちろんのこと、レンタサイクルも利用できる(冬季期間中は利用不可、利用機関に関しては公式HP参照をおすすめします)ので余市観光される方にはおすすめの場所です。
借りられる自転車も銀チャリタイプから電動自転車まであるので、自分の体力に合わせたレンタサイクルができて中々良いと思います(余市は坂が多いので体力に自信ない人は電動タイプのものを借りておくと安心です)。

Produce farm where visitors can hand-pick seasonal fruit from apples to cherries to strawberries.
Excellent farm for various fruits picking. They have Cherry, Apple, strawberry, Blueberry, Pear, Plum, and Peach for fruits picking event. Of course, it’s depends on the season. It’s better make a call before visiting to know about the ongoing event. The entry fee was 1500 yen for Plum, Peach, Blueberry and Cherry picking.

リンゴ、サクランボ、イチゴなど、季節の果物を手摘みできる農園です。
他より少し入場料などは高めですが、トイレがきれいだったり、地面にウッドチップが敷いてあって歩きやすかったり、高いだけの施設設備がととのった場所だと思います。
さくらんぼも比較的取りやすく(一般的に坂の場所が多いように思えますがここは平地メイン)あまり疲労せずさくらんぼ狩りが出来ます。
また南陽や月山錦などの品種も追加料金なしで食べられるのがうれしいです。
おすすめの果物狩り施設の一つです。

A farm where you can hand-pick seasonal fruits such as apples, cherries, and strawberries.
The entrance fee is a little higher than others, but I think it's a place with clean toilets, wood chips on the ground that make it easy to walk, and facilities that are expensive.
Cherries are also relatively easy to pick (in general, there seem to be many slopes, but this is mainly flatland), so you can pick cherries without getting tired.
Also, I am glad that you can eat varieties such as Nanyo and Gassan Nishiki at no additional charge.
It is one of the recommended fruit picking facilities.
Atsu Sato2 — Google review
An amazing experience to personally pick favorite fruits from tree branches and enjoy them extremely fresh right away. We were at the orchard in early November and only two seasonal fruits were available; apple and grape. It was our first time seeing apple trees lining up rows after rows. Each tree bearing dozens of apples despite its trunk is not that big; such a wonderful tree. We also tried grapes but did not like a distinct taste that reminded me of vine. The farm is quite far from town, getting here by car is the best option. Anyhow I saw one group calling taxi to pick them up at the farm. The fee for all-you-can-eat, tree-to-mouth fruit picking course is 2,300 yen. At the farm we were told that any take-home fruits will have to be paid by weight. When we checked information on its website later on, it indicates that you can pick and eat 2 kg. and take home any combinations of fruits. Rule is a bit unclear. Anyhow it is a good experience to try all year round with different seasonal fruits.

ハウスでのさくらんぼ狩りでした。
天気もよくて暑かったけどハウスの隙間から心地よい風が吹いて気持ち良かったです✨
脚立も置いてあるので上の方も簡単に取ることができます🎵
上の方がとても甘くて粒も大きくてとても美味しかったです❤️
品種がちょっとわかりにくい感じだったのでもう少しわかりやすかったら良かったかなと思いました✨
時間無制限というのはありがたくのんびり食べることが出来て良かったです🎵

It was cherry picking at the house.
The weather was nice and hot, but the pleasant breeze blew from the gaps in the house and it felt good✨
There is also a stepladder so you can easily take the upper one too 🎵
The top was very sweet and the grain was big and it was very delicious ❤️
The breed was a little difficult to understand, so I thought it would have been better if it was a little easier to understand.
It was nice to be able to eat leisurely, thankfully for unlimited time 🎵

The pears, prunes, apples and grapes were in season during my visit in September. Really fun to select the 'best' fruit and pluck it personally, to enjoy eating under the fruit tree. So fun! The pears, prunes, apples were very good. I didn't quite like the grapes though.

Visited for cherry picking. The weather was good, and I was surprised that the inside was very spacious. Satisfied.

I've never been to an orchard before let alone one that allows you (for a fee) to pick and eat all you can while you are within the orchard. You are not allow to bring home. Just eat while you are there. There are many type of fruits there so what you end up picking depends greatly on what's in season and at what stage of the season.
When I was here, the pears where just forming into fruits. Cherry were in season. I ate so much ... what can I say? They assured me that it is safe to just pick and eat as the Japanese are very strict on the usage of pesticide. But they've got a neat insect eco-system set up here to make it more naturale.
Appreciate if you leave a LIKE if you find my comment useful. Thank you for your support.

Self picking of seasonal fruits and also eating it. Able to purchase lots of fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables as well. Fruit jams and juices are available as well. Reasonably priced compared to other 'popular touristy' locations. There was also free generous watermelon slices sampling as well. Bought lotsa fruits here to eat throughout my trip. I even carried one watermelon back to Singapore just because it was so sweet and good!

Yoichi Station is a charming coastal town with numerous nearby attractions that can be easily accessed on foot from the station. One notable attraction is the Yoichi Nikka Whisky Distillery, a historic site established in 1934 that offers guided tours and tasting sessions. The distillery is open every day from 9:00-17:00 and admission is free, but it closes during the New Year holidays.
While modest in size, Yoichi Station boasts a welcoming atmosphere, offering various amenities for travelers, including information services and nearby dining options.
Its proximity to the Yoichi Distillery, famous for its Nikka Whisky, attracts decent number of visitors to the area.
