Get lost in the mesmerizing beauty of Japan's winter wonderland

Witness an Ice Carousel in Hokkaido

  • Region
    Hokkaido
  • Prefecture
    Hokkaido

This ice carousel is made from a circle of ice that is cut out and rotated on a thickly ice-covered lake. The rotating ice truly resembles an "ice merry-go-round," where you can sit or lie down to enjoy the surrounding scenery and the sky above. At night, lights placed along the circle's edge illuminate the lake surface, creating a spectacle that can also be enjoyed from outside the carousel. On clear nights, the starry sky viewed from the ice carousel turns into a natural planetarium, offering an unforgettable and unique experience.

Highlights

  • Experience unique winter activities such as snowmobiling and igloo building, and enjoy fireworks and light displays on ice.
  • On the ice carousel, it is possible to witness Ainu traditional dance performances and hold ceremonies such as weddings and wedding photo shoots, creating special, memorable moments.
