Introduction
The Sapporo Winter Sports Museum, now the Sapporo Olympic Museum, sits inside Okurayama Jump Stadium, venue of the 1972 Sapporo Winter Olympics. It traces the Games from ancient Olympia through historic medals and equipment used by Japan's medallists, then lets you try the sports yourself: ski jumping, bobsleigh, speed skating, cross-country and ice-hockey goaltending simulators. The adjacent jump-top observatory looks out over Sapporo and the Ishikari plain, making this a compact introduction to Hokkaido's snow culture.
