Hokkaido is the largest and northernmost prefecture in Japan. Separated from the main island of Honshu by the undersea railway Seikan Tunnel.

It is popular in all seasons as you can enjoy winter sports and festivals in Winter and due to it being relatively cooler than the rest of Japan in the summer months, visitors enjoy the abundance of Nation Parks and hiking. 

​

Hokkaido was settled much later than the rest of Japan, only in the last 100 years or so and as a result it's cities are much more modern, following a western type layout.
