Hakodate's Historical Architecture

A quick look at the western influence in Hakodate

There has been a few other stories written about Hakodate and the great sights, food and facilities. In this photo story, I want to show you some of the amazing buildings that can be found there. Hakodate was the first city in Japan to be opened to the outside world near the end of the Edo era in 1854. As a result, we can see the influence in a lot of western looking buildings. If you like architecture you will find more well preserved buildings there than in most other Japanese cities. You can get there by ferry, by train and by plane from the main island of Honshu.
