Motomachi & the churches
Russian domes, a British consulate and slope-top views down every street — the port that opened Japan first still looks the part.
Mt. Hakodate ropeway
The night view is one of Japan’s three great ones — but the daytime panorama of the two-sided isthmus is nearly as good and actually fits most calls.
