Ashibetsu

Hi everyone!

 

Today, I will introduce you the city of Ashibetsu.

Is there anyone who has been there before? I think the answer is no.

 

Ashibetsu is a very small town, but it’s famous for its food, sightseeing spots, and stars.

Especially I like the night sky of Ashibetsu.

So, I’m going to introduce all of them with pictures.

 

Firstly, speaking of food, Gatatan and Tang Lone are good!

Gatatan is a kind of ramen and its ingredients are pork, shrimp, squid, wood ear mushroom and so on.

Also, it contains starch, so it is thick.

Tang Lone is a drink made from seaweed (Konbu) and apple, so it's a little bit sweet.

Also it’s good for your health.

Secondly, I will talk about sightseeing spots.

The Falls and The Canadian World Park are popular. 

This is the fall of Sandan which means three-tiered.(←) and the fall of Tsukimi Zawa(→)

These are said to be haunted places, but it’s so beautiful so people who like to take pictures often come.

This is the Canadian World Park. As you can see, the view is very cute.

Since Ashibetsu established a sister-city relationship with Sharlot town in Canada in 1993, this park started to be built, reproducing the world of Anne of Green Gables.

I will recommend this park to people who like Anne of Green Gables and a fairy tale atmosphere.   

Lastly, stars. It is the best thing I like about Ashibetsu.

Stars cannot be seen well in Sapporo or urban cities, so people who want to see stars and beautiful night sky should come to Ashibetsu.

There are few lights in the night of Ashibetsu, so we can see the sky clearly.

Also there are a lot of events, festivals, a hot spring and fresh food is Ashibetsu.

So, please visit there someday！
