When it comes to the quintessential Hokkaido souvenir, it's Ishiya Confectionery's "Shiroi Koibito." The snow-capped mountain depicted on this package is said to be Mount Rishiri, as seen from "Shiroi Koibito Hill" on Rishiri Island. This hill not only offers a panoramic view of Mount Rishiri, the Sea of Japan, and Otatomari Marsh, but it is also a romantic spot associated with Shiroi Koibito. If you take a photo of your proposal at Shiroi Koibito Hill and bring it to the Rishirifuji Town Tourism Association, you will receive an official "Proposal Certificate" from Ishiya Confectionery. There's no doubt you'll enjoy a moment of romance while taking in the breathtaking scenery.

The "White Road" has become quite famous as a "scenic spot" in Wakkanai. The contrast of the blue sky and sea, the rich greenery flanking the 3-kilometer stretch of white road, and the hills that offer a view far into the distance create a picturesque scene. The road is white because it is paved with crushed scallop shells, a specialty of Wakkanai. On clear days, you can see as far as Mount Rishiri on Rishiri Island and Russia's Sakhalin Island.

An established inn in the northernmost Toyotomi Onsen village of Hokkaido has been renovated into a homey accommodation that blends comfort with a modern style. The most distinctive feature of Toyotomi Onsen is its globally rare, yellowish, petroleum-scented water. Due to its high oil content, it has excellent heat retention and moisturizing effects, and its benefits for chronic skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis and dry skin are gaining attention. Additionally, at Kawashima Ryokan, they produce butter and pudding from the fresh milk of Toyotomi Town to promote the local charm. The skin-friendly hot springs and handmade dairy products provide relaxation for both body and mind.

Hotel Toyotomi boasts the largest scale among the Toyotomi Onsen Village. Surrounded by nature in a tranquil environment, this inn prides itself on its skin-friendly famous hot springs and meals such as ceramic plate grilling using seasonal ingredients like beef and fish from Northern Hokkaido. It features a large bath with a panoramic view, allowing guests to enjoy a liberating soak while experiencing the four seasons of Northern Hokkaido. It is also close to the "Sarobetsu Wetland," where wildflowers bloom in abundance across vast marshlands, and Wakkanai, which has many attractions, making it a recommended base for sightseeing in Northern Hokkaido.
