This winter, my retro and exquisite trip to Otaru

Old times are always so warm, especially in the winter of Otaru. 🏨The OMO5 Otaru where I stayed is based on the concept of 'Retro Port City', promoting the little-known history, culture and creative gourmet of Otaru. The hotel is divided into south and north buildings. The south building is a historical building built in 1933, which was renovated from the old Otaru Chamber of Commerce. The north building is relatively modern, with both functionality and aesthetic design. The hotel displays a lot of nostalgic furniture and office supplies retained by the Chamber of Commerce, with a strong old-fashioned flavor. 🍴For the buffet breakfast, be sure to reserve more than an hour to enjoy it slowly. The style of northern Spain plus the flavor of Hokkaido is very rich. I asked the hotel staff, why did you choose to make Spanish food? She said because the climate of northern Spain and Hokkaido are somewhat similar, both are coastal and colder in winter. ☕️There is a special area for breakfast from the 'South Otaru Market' frequented by local citizens. Pickled kelp and herring are very representative local specialties. 🎿There are four ski resorts near Otaru. The hotel is specially equipped with a ski drying room. Skis do not need to be brought back to the room, they can be stored here, and free self-maintenance is available. 📷Follow the OMO Rangerde for a city walk, this is a free service of the hotel. The guide is a student from Fangshan, Beijing, which is quite friendly! He knows all the hidden wonders on this road. Which house has rails... Why some roofs are painted with clocks but no hands... Which historical building has produced celebrities... What time does the steam clock report... Whose kelp is the most authentic... 🍨He recommended us to go to LeTAO PATHOS for a special limited dessert, which can only be eaten by guests staying at OMO5 Otaru. In addition to fresh fruits and cereal crisps, it also uses fresh cream and mascarpone cheese made from local ranches. Two kinds of local small berries that are very cold-resistant, wild cherry plum aronia+blue indigo fruit Haskap made into parfait and jam, these two kinds of fruits are super super antioxidant. After eating this cup, it's full of vitality!
