Otaru City (Hokkaido) is a romantic landmark in Hokkaido, a Meiji-era nostalgic port town. The night view of Otaru Canal is stunning, with gas lamps and red-brick warehouses complementing each other. The Music Box Museum houses thousands of antique music boxes, and the steam clock at its entrance is a popular photo spot. Sakaimachi Street is a filming location for the movie "Love Letter," offering poetic views of the sloping street and the sea. Mount Tengu provides a panoramic night view of the city and is also a ski resort in winter. Must-try local delicacies include sea urchin sushi from Masazushi, LeTAO double-layer cheesecake, seafood rice bowls, and Otaru beer.
