Zerubu Hill

This is a sightseeing spot where you can see fields of flowers such as lavender and sunflowers against the backdrop of the powerful nature of Asahidake and the Tokachi mountain range.
The name “Zerubu” is derived from the last letters of three words – “wind(kaze),” “smell(kaoru),” and “enjoy(asobu)” in Japanese.
From this observatory, you can also see the Ken and Mary tree, which appeared in a commercial in the past and has become a famous tourist spot for those that are familiar.

Blue Pond in Biei

Ever since it was chosen as the wallpaper for Apple’s computers, tourists from all over the world have been visiting this famous tourist spot in Biei, which is sure to be Instagram-worthy.
