Toyohira Ward

Few urban districts in Hokkaido have a history as closely tied to the Toyohira River as Toyohira Ward. The river follows the ward’s western edge, separating much of it from central Sapporo, while broad residential neighbourhoods spread east toward the city’s outskirts. Toyohira grew from communities once beyond Sapporo’s core and is now an integral part of Japan’s fifth-largest city. Its best-known landmark is Sapporo Dome, the 2001 stadium designed for football and baseball and home ground of Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo. Parks and riverside paths bring a more open rhythm to this densely settled district. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Sapporo and Hokkaido.
