I made a trip to Hakodate, Hokkaido last weekend. Since it is quite a bit further north from Tokyo, it was still very cool.
Hakodate is a port town, famous for fresh fish. Here are ships dedicated to catching cuttle fish, seen from an elevated road by the port.
Hakodate used to be a big trading port with the Russians. Here's a Russian church.

Fresh fish market was open early in the morning.
A dance troop was practicing to participate in a big competition in Sapporo.
The view of Goryokaku from the observation tower right next to it. This place became a big battle site in 1868 - Battle of Hakodate.
Recently constructed Old Magistrate's Office from some 150 years ago.
Azaleas were still beautiful by the moat of Goryokaku.
