Furano

The Sorachi River defines the setting of Furano — its course through the Furano Basin places the city between cultivated fields and the Tokachi Mountains. In summer, lavender has become the district’s best-known seasonal signature, with farms around Furano drawing travellers for purple fields and products such as lavender ice cream. Winter shifts attention to Furano Ski Resort, whose slopes form part of the city’s year-round identity. Furano also has a lasting place in Japanese popular culture as the setting of the television drama Kita no Kuni kara (From the Northern Country). Local food leans on Hokkaido dairy and produce, while the compact centre is a practical base for central Hokkaido.
