A Fascinating City, Hakodate

I introduced my baseball club in my post before and wrote about a training camp in Hakodate. Today, I will introduce Hakodate. I’ve been there once, but it is a wonderful city.

This city is in the southeastern part of Hokkaido, so we can see cherry blossoms the earliest in Hokkaido. I saw cherry blossoms in March last year, it was very beautiful and it makes me happy. Moreover, Goryokaku is a famous tourist spot, it is a good place to see cherry blossoms and it is shaped like a star.

☝I took this picture last year. Cherry trees reflected on the surface of the water were very beautiful.

I recommend a hamburger chain in Hakodate, it is named Lucky Pierrot. The most famous dish is `Chinese chicken burger`, it is big and includes three big pieces of fried chicken, lettuce and mayonnaise. It tastes sweet and spicy!

Furthermore, each shop has their own concept, for example, in the main shop, there is a big red chair and if you sit on the chair, you may be lucky with money, and there is a very big statue of a giraffe. In another shop, there are chairs like swings. We can eat hamburgers while feeling we are in the park and it is very interesting.

Lucky Pierrot sells original products which have the company logo and there are T-shirts, mugs, bags and so on. I want the T-shirt very much because it is cute!
