- Otaru Canal
Reflections of the warehouses and the light from the gas lamps on the surface of the water take visitors back in time.
Built in 1923, this canal tells a story of Otaru's history. Stone warehouses line the canal. With gas lamps and a walkway running alongside the canal, this is one of Hokkaido's top tourist spots.
