The Seto Inland Sea Memorial Park is also a fantastic spot to enjoy views of the Great Seto Bridge.

Onuma Quasi National Park
In July 1958, Onuma Quasi-National Park was designated as the 13th in the nation and the only quasi-national park in southern Hokkaido.
If you want to really experience the beauty of Onuma Quasi National Park, I definitely recommend taking a boat tour on the lake.

Otaru Tenguyama Observation Platform, Otaru Tenguyama Ropeway
Otaru’s symbol, Mt.Tengu, stands 532m-high above sea level. On top, there is an observation platform awarded one star on Michelin Green Guide Japon, where you can look out at the city and the Japan Sea. At night, Mt Tengu offers a breath-taking sight over Otaru City, referred to as one of Hokkaido’s Three Best Night Views, along with Mt. Moiwa and Mt. Hakodate.
Most people who come here at night are couples. It's definitely one of the best spots for a date.

Tsugaru Tetsudo “Stove Train”
Tsugaru Railway spans about 20km from north to south between Tsugaru-Goshogawara Station and Tsugaru-Nakasato Station. Limited to winter, from December to March, the tourism train called “Stove Train” runs, which uses coal stoves for heating passenger cars.
Winters in Tohoku are seriously cold, but thankfully the train has a heater—and it's an old-school charcoal stove! You can even grill squid on it and enjoy some sake 🍶. Such a nostalgic vibe.
