Tomamu is a resort town located in Hokkaido Japan, about 2 hours by train east of Sapporo. Tomamu was built in the 1990's during Japan's bubble economy and the architecture/design and color-scheme of the high-rise hotels here is truly unforgettable. This travel guide provides an overview of the resort town including the hotels and restaurants in the area. In the summer, Tomamu is known for it's Unkai Terrace (sea of clouds). In the winter, Tomamu is a popular skiing destination with numerous ski-lifts.

Unkai Terrace & Cable Car at Tomamu in Hokkaido Japan
The Unkai Terrace is a scenic viewing terrace that is on a high mountain peak that is often above the clouds. Unkai Terrace is located in the resort town of Tomamu in Hokkaido Japan, about a 2.5 hour drive from Sapporo. The word Unkai in Japanese means sea of clouds and the natural phenomena only occurs occasionally, typically on summer mornings at this location. To visit the Unkai Terrace you take a ropeway/cablecar for about 10 minutes to an elevation of up to 1100m. At the top of the ropeway there are a couple of viewing platforms, a Tokyo Soup Stock (for breakfast), and some hiking trails. Make sure to go early, because this is an early morning activity. The cable car opened at 4:10am and closed at 10:00am the day we were there. Even if you don't get to see the actual sea of clouds, it's still a pretty fun ride up to the top.

Japan Travel: A Picture Perfect View at the Furano Flower Fields, Hokkaido 03 Moopon
Japan Travel: A Picture Perfect View at the Furano Flower Fields, Hokkaido 03 Moopon
Furano (富良野) is a beautiful town in the center of Hokkaido, famous of its floral landscapes. July is a popular time to visit Furano, as the Furano famous lavender fields are in full bloom. In the winter, Furano transforms into a downhill and cross country skiing resort.
Lavender has been grown and cultivated in Hokkaido for more than half a century. However, the demand for Hokkaido’s lavender has decreased due to lower priced, imported lavender. Currently, lavender in Hokkaido is more a tourist attraction than an agricultural crop.
Furano's picturesque lavender fields bring large number of tourists to this area every summer. The majority of lavender begins to bloom in late June and peaks from mid July to early August. Though less in quantity, other varieties of lavender remain in bloom until mid August.
In addition to lavender, there are many other flowers cultivated in Furano. Visitors interested in flowers should plan to visit between June and September, though there is fluctuation between the flowers making view beautiful before and after this time period. In general, the following flowers are seen in the following time periods:
From June…rape blossoms, poppies and lupins
From July…lilies
From August and September…sunflowers, salvias and cosmos
Though there are numerous flowers fields across Furano, Farm Tomita is a popular spot. With the Tokachi Mountains in the background, the lavender and flower fields make a beautiful picture. Entry to the farm is free of charge. Visitors can explore the fields as well as the cafes and shops within the grounds to see the wide range of lavender related products this region produces. Some lavender inspired food products include lavender ice cream and lavender cream puffs.
Note: please be aware Farm Tomita is especially crowded during the peak season of lavender.
In 2008, Farm Tomita opened a second farm, Lavender East. Lavender East is located about four kilometers east of Farm Tomita. Visitors will be greeted by the most spacious of all lavender fields in Furano, covering 14 hectares, here. In addition to a shop, cafe and observation deck, visitors can ride the Lavender Bus through the lavender fields. The bus ride is 15 minutes and there is a nominal fee.
