Hokkaido Island in Japan is adorned with an impressive cluster of mountains and caldera lakes. If you and your partner adore highland so much, having a pre-wedding here is a great option. The prefecture also owns a maritime panorama that makes its nature beauty special. Especially during autumn, those yellowish-red leaves add more romance and drama. For couples who are curious about the neighborhood, you can visit the humble surroundings at the coast with a strong Japanese cultural sense, which is also lovely as a photo spot.
Here are 12 pre-wedding photoshoot destinations in Hokkaido to consider.
Lake Shikotsu
Mountains framing the area with a reflective caldera lake is a true attention stealer. You can stroll around Lake Shikotsu, which is a part of Shikotsu-Toya National Park, as well as ride a canoe, or just sit under a lush tree and enjoy local bites.
Below are some recommended accommodations surrounding those destinations.
Toya Kohantei
Stands precisely on the edge of Lake Toya, the hotel is also one of the most wanted hot spring (onsen) destinations in the town. You can experience having a rest in a Japanese style room with tatami while enjoying the fireworks parade from the room's window.
Hakodate Onuma Prince Hotel
Besides a massive and stunning open-air area to explore, the hotel also offers premium comfort. One of its magnets is an extraordinary sight of lush wilderness directly from your hotel room, which relaxes the eyes.
Winning Hotel
Winning Hotel provides an extensive view from the bay to the surrounding buildings. Only meters away from Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse, the hotel also offers a rooftop bar where you and your partner can spend the rest of the day.
For your comfort, while exploring Hokkaido, it is recommended to use a digital payment getaway, such as NETSPay. NETSPay is accepted in various commercial places around Hokkaido, such as restaurants and retailers.
