Introduction to today's journey
Today's journey takes me around Hokkaido's capital city Sapporo, exploring the city centre and heading to a sumo wrestling match.
Today's Journey
|
Overcast skies cover Sapporo in the early morning. |
|
Crossing the Sosei River flowing through the middle of the city. |
|
Little pot plants on the street - there are a lot of these. |
|
I head underground to catch a subway train to one of the stadiums across town. |
|
Here I watch a sumo wrestling match. |
|
A bunch of large people pushing each other out of a circle. It sounds simple but there's an entire lifestyle and culture behind it. |
|
Returning to Sapporo where a painter works on one of the city's picturesque lakes. |
|
Drinking calpis. |
|
The food is very nice and fancy here. |
|
The city is very busy and noisy at night. |
