Otaru Canal Area ★★★
A great canal runs through Otaru city which is adorned with Victorian-style street lamps. Otaru Canal was built in 1923. In 1986, the canal area was beautifully restored with elements that are familiar to visitors today: Gaslights, a stone-paved promenade, and a roadside park. The Otaru Canal is about 5-10 mins walk straight down the main road from Otaru St.
