Asahikawa trip planner

Perched on the confluence of four rivers and surrounded by green hills, Asahikawa combines a modern city experience with the pristine nature nearby. The city's vast industrial heritage becomes apparent on an Asahikawa vacation, with a visit to the old iron bridge crossing the Asahi River capturing this atmosphere perfectly. Well known for its ramen, a noodle soup dish, the city offers a tiny "ramen village" (actually an alley) in which to sample different varieties of the dish. No Asahikawa holiday is complete without unwinding in one of the city’s numerous "onsen" (traditional spas) or taking a stroll underneath tree tunnels in many green parks across the town. In winter time, the city hosts a famous ice festival displaying many snow and ice sculptures.
