AT THE southernmost point of Hokkaido, the fishing city of Hakodate spans a long sand spit connecting an old volcano with the rest of the island.

A gondola ascends the very steep volcano to the summit from where there are spectacular views over the city and across to Honshu. Fishing boats dot the offshore waters.
