Sapporo Christmas Village


I can't remember whether we visited the Christmas Village on our first night or second night in Sapporo. It was snowing so heavily that it was kinda hard to enjoy the village! First of all, we had to find the village, which was just on top at the open area. It sounds simple enough, but when you're underground, covered and warm, it kinda is a drag to go out into the cold cold night. Doesn't help that it was snowing non-stop! But we had to go, cause I've never been in a Christmas Village in winter before. And Christmas was fast approaching and the village would be over if I don't visit it soon. 


The village was mainly just stall selling Christmas stuff. Nothing really interesting. I guess its kinda like an "atas" pasar madam, or night market. It was hard to browse the items on sale with the snow all over your face, so we just did a quick round and that's it.


Here's a photo of me in the crazy snow.


Before we left, we did got some snacks to eat. We got a sausage platter which cost like damn expensive. And a cup of warm apple cider. There was a covered tent nearby where you can go in and eat in peace away from the howling snow. The sausage got cold really fast, and so did the ale/cider. The tent was also crowded, and water everywhere! Ugh! But Christmas Village checked! There were also illumination lights everywhere in the town of Sapporo. Yeah, maybe I'll post that next.
