Historical Village of Hokkaido - visitor guide

北海道開拓の村

Historical Village of Hokkaido gathers relocated and reconstructed buildings into an open-air museum on Sapporo's eastern side. Town, farming and fishing settings show aspects of everyday life during the Meiji and early Showa periods. Compare homes with workplaces as you walk, remembering that the village assembles buildings from different communities rather than preserving one settlement in place.
