Must visit place in Sapporo. Unfortunately I came in rainy day, so I could not go out to walk in park.
Parking building was good and easy to access. You must remember your car licence, it need when you check out. I didn't visit here with public transportation.
Main hall was beautiful. Dessert cafe was good taste in every menus, esp. white chocolate menus. Shop was various goods. Prices were not cheaper than other shops.
Recommend to visit once. In winter it have to good view than other seasons. Must try desserts in cafe. Children will very enjoy here.
Whom ever designed and built this chocolate factory is a genius. Who is the person with great minds and business knowledge!
The theme park theme makes this factor become a tourist attraction that attracts tourists from far away!
This place also good for all ages. Every one can enjoy something that your age is not important.
They even have DIY place which you can create a cookie was your own artwork and design. This handsome experience is very welcome by lots of children and kids. Even a thought. Also enjoyed this!
The shop at the first floor you can purchase their famous chocolate cookie and all kinds of relay the product.
And the garden outside also a great place to take pictures. You would enjoy it for sure!
I was recommended this place by a middle-aged couple I met at a restaurant in Tokyo, and it truly felt like I had been transported to Strasbourg, France. The atmosphere is straight out of a fairytale, and the chocolate is absolutely delicious.
It’s a well-known brand, so you’ll find their products all over the city and in duty-free shops, but I highly recommend buying the items that are exclusive to this location.
Although the large number of Chinese tourists made it a bit noisy, everything else was perfect. The white chocolate latte sold here was unbelievably good. Such a beautiful and magical place.
I went on a Sunday afternoon in June and it was beautiful. I only viewed the free portion of the park, so I can't speak to the tour or ticket purchases. However, the park is beautiful and very easy to navigate. The ice cream and coffee stand were amazing. I didn't eat at the restaurant, but I did try the bakery.. I will be thinking about the potato roll in my DREAMS. I would highly recommend a visit to this park. Between the train, walking the park, snacks, and taking pictures it was about a 5 hours excursion.
