First post of new series in Hokkaido. 北海道之旅.
As highlighted in our previous post, there were currently no pins by any authors for Hokkaido. And so, we are here to share our Hokkaido trips and add a few pins to this wonderful prefecture of Japan.
正如我们之前的帖所提过的，北海道在@steemitworldmap目前都没有任何pin。所以，我们在这里想分享我们的北海道旅行，并添加几个pin在这里。
Our trip started from Tokyo, as we embarked on a 6 hours train ride on the Hayabusa Shinkansan and Express train from Aomori to Hakodate.
This was before the opening of the Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto Shinkansen. Now, it only takes 4 hours from Tokyo to Shin-Hakodate, all on the Shinkansen.
从东京开始，我们乘坐JR東日本的はやぶさ 新幹線到青森，再转换特快列车到函馆，前后坐了6个小时的火车。
这是在新函馆 - 北斗新幹線开幕之前。现在，从东京到函馆只需4个小时，全都在新幹線上。
Long rides ahead. What to do? Play with Hello Kitty and take selfies. 长长路程，做什么呢？和吉蒂猫自拍吧。
And eating Ekiben. 还有吃便当。
We checked into the nearby Loisir Hotel just after sunset. Loisir Hotel had since been renamed (bought over?) Four Points Sheraton. Nice comfy hotel with a bar at the top floor overlooking the city.
到函館已经日落，我们入住了附近的Loisir酒店。 Loisir酒店现在已经改名为Four Points Sheraton。非常舒适的酒店，在顶楼还有俯瞰着城市的酒吧。
And off we go to Mount Hakodate
We took the local tram to Jujigai stop followed by the Hakodateyama Ropeway to the top of the hill. The ropeway costs around 1200 Yen for a round trip
到函馆山去
我们乘坐当地的电车到Jujigai站，然后乘坐函馆山索道到达山顶。索道价格约为1200日元。
Mount Hakodate
334 Metres high. Most famous for it's night view of the city from the mountain top. The view is regarded as Japan's Top 3 Night view, along with Nagasaki's Mount Inasa and Kobe's Mount Rokko.
函馆山
高334米，最有名的是从山顶上的城市夜景。与長崎的稲佐山和神户的六甲山一起被认为是日本的三大夜景。
Unfortunately, the photo (taken with iPhone) did not do the view justice. The night view was quite magnificent. However, what is more spectacular was... the Coldness. It was absolutely freezing on the mountain top, with constant strong winds blowing into your face. We could hardly take a proper picture.
可惜，照片（用iPhone拍摄）看不出夜景真正的美。函館山的夜景非常壮观，可是，更可怕的是....冷。山顶上超冷，大风一直打向我们的脸，几乎不能好好的拍照。
After just 10 minutes, we couldn't bear it anymore and decided to descent using the ropeway again.
We wandered around the town on tram and foot looking for a good restaurant for our dinner.
And found this...
只过了十分钟我们再也忍受不了了，决定下山，寻找晚餐
走了一段路，发现了这家餐厅...
Really nice sushi and torikatsu. 好吃！
We visited the hotel bar lounge after dinner. Enjoying a nice cold beer. 晚饭后我们去了酒店的酒吧，享受一杯冰冷的啤酒。
Mount Hakodate and it's night view is highly recommended by us. Do visit it when you are in Hakodate or Hokkaido. Just remember to protect yourself from the cold and wind if during winter.
强烈推荐函馆山夜景。如果你到函馆或北海道的时候请去参观。只要记得保护自己，免受寒风侵袭。
