Sapporo’s green belt, Odori Park runs for 1,500m east-west through central Sapporo. At the east end, the television tower offers 360-degree panoramas. Around Odori Park, the clock tower, which has kept accurate time for over a hundred years since the Meiji Era, and the Former Hokkaido Government Office Building built in an American neo-Baroque style and fondly known as the red brick (aka-renga) are reminders of Hokkaido’s colonial history.
