Introduction
The Sapporo JR Tower Observatory T38 sits on the 38th floor above Sapporo Station, about 160 metres high — a prime spot to look over the whole city and the Ishikari Plain. Floor-to-ceiling glass wraps the view; on clear days you can trace Mt. Moiwa, Mt. Teine and even toward the Sea of Japan, while at night the city lights and the Snow Festival illuminations spread below.
