Experience the magic of Hakodate as the city lights up after dark on this enchanting night tour. Begin with breathtaking views from Mount Hakodate, where the city sparkles like a sea of jewels—truly one of the world's most beautiful nightscapes.

Next, explore Hakodate’s historical landmarks under illumination. Stroll along Hachiman-zaka Slope, famous from films, TV dramas, and commercials, offering a stunning waterfront view. Visit the Old Public Hall of Hakodate Ward, a 1910 wooden Western-style building designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. The Kanemori Red Brick Warehouses have been transformed into beer halls, restaurants, and shops, blending history with modern charm.

The tour also highlights Hakodate’s iconic churches: the Harisutosu Orthodox Church, Japan’s oldest Greek Orthodox Church built in 1859; the Motomachi Catholic Church, featuring a Gothic-style altar gifted by the Pope; and St. John’s Church, a modern design by British Protestant missionaries.
