This week we stretch our legs a little bit further from Sapporo City to a “the city of flowers”, Eniwa.
At “Road Stop Flower Road Eniwa” (Michi no Eki Hana Road Eniwa), we try some of the 60 varieties of breads the bakery has available for sale. Particularly popular are the breads that use “Ebisu Pumpkin”, a specialty grown in the town.
We visit an area known for its gorgeous gardening “Megumi no Chiku”, to find spectacular gardens available for viewing in the homes of the townspeople. Keeping in mind the proper manners while viewing the flowers at these private homes, we find jaw-dropping dreamlike gardens overflowing with life.
At the popular Gelato shop “Gerateria Gigi”, we indulge in a taste comparable to Italy’s original!
Next, we are thrilled to try ‘sports fishing’ at “10 pound”. After being taught the basics of lure fishing, MCs Li Qiang and Isis decide to compete to see how many they can catch. Who do you think will win?
Finally, after catching some fish to eat, the two enjoy a barbeque outdoors taking in the vast nature surrounding them. What a treat to taste the fish you caught yourself, in Hokkaido’s great scenery!
