Sapporo (札幌) is the capital and largest city of the northern island of Hokkaido, Japan.

Sapporo Halal Travel Guide

One of Japan's newest and nicest cities, Sapporo's population has grown from seven in 1857 to nearly 2 million today. Being a new city, especially by Japanese standards, means it has little in the way of traditional architecture and the like of cities such as Kyoto. But what it lacks in "Japanese-ness" it makes up for with its lovely open, tree-filled boulevards to enjoy in summer and excellent snow (and facilities to cope with said snow) in the long winter.

How is the Climate in Sapporo

Sapporo has four distinct seasons. Temperatures are generally cool and pleasant in a summer, making it a popular place to escape the heat that grips much of the rest of Japan. Winters are harsh by Japanese standards, though not as harsh as the likes of Harbin or Chicago. Snowfall is extremely frequent in the winter, and the city makes full use of it by hosting the world-renowned Sapporo Snow Festival in February every year.

Masjids in Sapporo

Nestled in the heart of Hokkaido, Japan, Sapporo Masjid (札幌マスジド) stands as a recent yet significant addition to the city's spiritual and cultural landscape. Located at 4 Chome-1-29 Kita 14 Jonishi, Kita Ward, Sapporo, Hokkaido 001-0014, this mosque is not just a place for prayer but a vibrant hub for learning and community engagement.

Welcoming Atmosphere

Open 24 hours a day, Sapporo Masjid offers a cozy, comfortable, and clean environment for worshippers. The atmosphere is imbued with a sense of joy and tranquility, making every visit a spiritually uplifting experience. The warm-hearted and benevolent community members greet visitors with salaam, creating a welcoming environment that feels like home.

A Center for Learning

Beyond its primary function as a place of worship, Sapporo Masjid serves as a Dakwah center on the ground floor. This makes it a must-visit destination for those interested in learning about Islam. The mosque actively invites Japanese people and others to study Islam, fostering an environment of understanding and cultural exchange.

Inclusivity and Community

Sapporo Masjid is inclusive and accommodating, allowing women to join Friday prayers. The mosque’s community is known for its hospitality, especially during Ramadan. Visitors have shared their pleasant surprises at the iftar services provided for all jamaah (congregants).

Accessibility and Location

The mosque is conveniently located about a 10-minute walk from Sapporo Station and a mere 3-minute walk from the main campus of Hokkaido University. Its strategic location makes it easily accessible for both locals and visitors.

A Beautiful Sanctuary

Sapporo Masjid is regarded as one of the most beautiful mosques in Japan. It offers a unique spiritual experience, especially during significant Islamic events. One notable experience is the i'tikaf (spiritual retreat) during the last 10 days of Ramadan, where the imam, Sheikh Ismael, provides deep dars (lessons) based on the teachings of great scholars of Ahlul Sunnah.

In summary, Sapporo Masjid is not just a mosque; it is a cornerstone of the Islamic community in Hokkaido. Its commitment to inclusivity, education, and community engagement makes it a beacon for Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Whether you are looking for a place to pray, learn about Islam, or simply experience the warmth of a close-knit community, Sapporo Masjid is a place you must visit.

Muslim Friendly Rail Holidays in Sapporo

Sapporostation south

Getting to Sapporo by train is time consuming and expensive. From Tokyo, for example, a one-way trip takes about eight hours using the Hayabusa shinkansen and the Hokuto limited express, changing at Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto station.

The national Japan Railway Pass fully covers the journey. If you are just traveling between Tokyo and Hokkaido, you could consider the JR East-South Hokkaido Railway Pass, which is slightly cheaper than the national pass (¥26,000 for advance purchase). This pass covers travel on the shinkansen from Tokyo to Hakodate, and express trains from Hakodate to Sapporo. It can be used on any 6 days within a 14-day period. Unlike the national pass, however and the JR East-South Hokkaido Pass only comes in one version for standard class travel.

Overnight travel

Overnight trains to Hokkaido were discontinued when the shinkansen began operations through the underwater Seikan Tunnel.

It is now a little easier to make a trip during the day from Tokyo to Sapporo, with trains making the trip in about 8 hours. If 8 hours is too much, or if you will travel over a longer distance (i.e. from Osaka and cities beyond), you may wish to split up your journey; stop to visit another city along the way, or simply find a station along the bullet train route where you can find affordable accommodations. The latter is beneficial to Railway Pass holders. Potential options for layovers include Hakodate and Aomori.

  • JR Sapporo Station - 札幌駅 | North 2 West 1 43.067838, 141.350677 On the Namboku Line. ☎ +81 11 222-6130 - This is the main train station for Sapporo.

Travel on a Bus in Sapporo

Express buses connect to most points in Hokkaido. The main terminal is next to the Bus Center-Mae station of the subway Tōzai line.

By ferry

Although Sapporo is located inland and there are two major ferry ports nearby: Otaru and Tomakomai. Both have scheduled vehicle and passenger ferry service to points outside Hokkaido.

How to get around in Sapporo

Sapporo Tower

Most unusually for a Japanese city, Sapporo is logically organized thanks to its strict grid system. The main thoroughfare and the leafy Ō-Dōri (大通り, literally "Big Street"), runs east-west across the city and divides the city into North and South, while Sōsei-Gawa (創成川, literally "Creation River") divides the city into West and East, running under the main street Eki-Mae-Dōri (駅前道リ、literally "In Front of the Train Station Road"). The address of every block in the center is thus of the type "North X West Y" (prominently signposted at all intersections), making navigation a snap. However, most businesses etc. will still provide maps to their location, building names or monuments, because the address "North X West Y" or the like simply means that the place you are trying to find will be somewhere in the block, and blocks in the centre of the city can be quite large!

Two public transportation smart cards are sold in the Sapporo area; JR Hokkaido's ' Kitaca' and the Sapporo City Transportation Bureau's SAPICA. While the Kitaca can be used on the buses, subway and streetcars and the SAPICA cannot be used on JR trains, making the Kitaca the better choice for most visitors. If you are coming from elsewhere in Japan and the major smart cards from other regions such as Kanto's Suica and PASMO, and Kansai's ICOCA are fully interchangeable with Kitaca, meaning that you do not need to purchase an extra smart card.

Muslim Friendly Rail Holidays in Sapporo

The JR above-ground trains are reasonably priced and an excellent option for traveling in Sapporo and surroundings. The trains arrive and depart at specific times. You'll most likely want to take a train to and from the airport.

By subway

Sapporo has three subway lines, all converging at Ōdōri Station at the center of the grid. The Namboku Line ("North-South") runs north-south and the Tōzai Line runs along Odori east-west. Only the Tōhō Line breaks the mold by running in a C-shaped curve from northeast to southeast. Single fares cost ¥200 and up, with a choice between subway-only tickets or transfer (subway, bus and streetcar) tickets. The simplest option is the With You stored value card (lowest denomination ¥2000). On weekends and public holidays and the Donichika-Kippu (ドニチカキップ) allows unlimited 1-day subway travel for ¥700. On weekdays and the One-Day Card allows the same, but costs ¥800. There is also a Bus and Subway Transfer One-Day Card, which allows unlimited 1-day travel on buses, subways, and streetcars (¥2000). Fares for children are about half those for adults.

By streetcar

A streetcar of relatively little utility to most visitors trundles around the southwestern side of Sapporo, connecting to the subway at Susukino. Its most important stops are probably the Chuo Library (Main Public Library in Sapporo) and the Mt. Moiwa Ropeway. It's most useful in winter, when walking the icy footpaths to get to the library or otherwise less-accessible south-western areas of the city becomes quite treacherous. Single-trip tickets are ¥270. They also sell a "Do-san-ko Pass" on weekends and holidays which allows you to ride all you want for a day for ¥700. Since this is less than the cost of 2 normal trips, it is usually advisable to buy this if you are going to make a round trip on an eligible day.

By car

You could try to drive in the city, but parking might be problematic. Generally speaking, using the subways and buses is recommended. There are countless pay parking lots in Sapporo. One of the largest ones is about 100m south of the Susukino South Toyoko Inn, and it's a short walk from the subway.

What to see in Sapporo

  • Clock Tower - 時計台 Tokeidai - 43.062602, 141.353681 Close to Ōdōri Station. ¥200 This rather diminutive building has become a symbol of Sapporo, mostly by being the oldest building still standing. It was constructed in 1878 for the Sapporo Agricultural College (now the Hokkaido University) and would not look out of place in "Smalltown U.S.A." The inside has a small retrospective of its history. Visitor beware, as this is for some reason a popular for Japanese tourists coming to Sapporo who feel that no trip to Sapporo would be complete without a photo in front of the Tokeidai, but was actually recently rated as Japan's third "most disappointing" tourist attraction!
  • Ishiya Chocolates Factory - イシヤチョコレートファクトリー | ¥600 for a tour, free entrance to the premises - The Chocolates factory has an incredibly corny, but fun, tour building up to a view of the actual Chocolates making floor, and ending with a random toy museum. Also there are two restaurants, a souvenir store, and an hourly robot show complete with annoying music. Famous for its white Chocolates, which is sold under the brand "White Lovers" (白い恋人 shiroi koibito), and is only available in Hokkaido. There is also a cake buffet available at the restaurant on the top floor for "¥1,500" but reservations must be made 3 days in advance.

Best things to do in Sapporo

Yukimatsuri2004-2-8

  • Sapporo Snow Festival - 雪祭り Yuki Matsuri | Opening Hours: First week of February - This is Sapporo's largest event. The festival is best known for the ice sculpture competition attracting artists from around the world, competing to create the largest and most elaborate artworks from ice and snow. The festival is focused on Odori Koen, in the centre of Sapporo. It consists of a combination of large-scale replicas and artistic sculptures; children-aimed attractions; and a separate section for world-wide competitors (where you can see a wide range of smaller artistic sculptures). The festival should be enjoyed both in the day -- but particularly at night when the sculptures (especially the larger ones) are lit up. When the weather is warmer and there's a bit of melting and the smaller sculptures are literally remade every night to ensure that they are in perfect condition the next day. Book accommodation early, because Sapporo gets booked out during the festival.
  • Mt. Teine - 手稲山 Teineyama - A ski mountain within easy drive from most of Sapporo. This ski mountain featured in the 1972 Winter Olympics. Offers a good mix of beginner and experienced slopes (in two distinct parks; Highlands and Olympia which have recently been connected). You can purchase a Skip (スキップ sukippu, ski + trip) ticket at any JR ticket office for roughly ¥6500 (depending on which station you start from) that includes roundtrip train tickets to JR Teine station, roundtrip bus tickets from Teine station to the ski area, and a four-hour lift ticket. At Teine Station, make sure to exit at South gate #3 to find the correct bus.
  • Skiing - As befits a former Winter Olympics site, Sapporo is famous for its ski resorts, which are easily accessible by bus. Niseko, arguably Japan's top destination for powder, is two hours away by bus.
  • Noboribetsu Onsen - It's valley with set of hotels that provide onsens, accessible in 70 minutes by express train from Sapporo station and then 15 minutes commute by bus, so easy to do as a day trip. It has few trails, gorgeous views and onsens to soak in.
  • Hoheikyo Onsen - 豊平峡温泉 | 〒061-2301 札幌市南区定山渓608番地2 ☎ +81 11-598-2410 - ¥2000 - Probably the most beautiful outdoor hotspring that is easily accessible from Sapporo. Separate areas for male and female guests offer an indoor bathing area and a large outdoor swimmingpool with mountain view. Massage, a organic juice and a restaurant (Indian Curries or Japanese soba) are available on site. A free shuttle bus departs daily from Makomanai subway station (in front of the middle school) at 10:00 and returns from Hoheikyo to Makomanai at 15:00. Public buses (Rapid 7, Rapid 8 and Kappa Liner) also run regularly from Sapporo JR Station for ¥840.

Muslim Friendly Shopping in Sapporo

For those living in Japan who have an omiyage (souvenir) obligation to fill in your Japanese office when you return from your Hokkaido holiday and the best omiyage to buy in Sapporo is the ubiquitous Shiroi Koibito (白い恋人, "White Lovers"). It is a Chocolates slice sandwiched in two wafers of sweet biscuit, individually wrapped and available boxed in a range of different quantities — tasty enough, but rather bland, and few Westerners would associate the taste with Japan. The original flavour is white Chocolates sandwiched in plain sweet biscuit, but there is also a dark Chocolates version. It's available in every souvenir store in the city (try the Sapporo JR area or Tanuki Koji Shopping Arcade when shopping for souvenirs), and also most souvenir stores around the island.

Being a wintery kind of place for a good part of each year, Sapporo also has many stores selling all manner of snow goods. At the beginning and end of each season, many good deals on the previous year's gear can be found, often at discounts of up to 60% off, sometimes more! Also and there are several sports recycle stores in the city and suburbs where good deals on barely-used gear can be found, thanks to the Japanese fondness for having new gear every season. Ask Sapporo Tourism Board to help you locate sports recycle and snow-goods stores.

  • Otaru, roughly 60 minutes by vehicle (shorter by expressway). A very pleasant small town located on the coast, and famous (within Japan) for its attractive canal which is very European in design. Also famous for its seafood, music box museum (with associated tourist shop) and glass works. Also famous for being the setting of the movie Love Letter.
  • Niseko, arguably Japan's top destination for powder skiing and snowboarding, is two hours away by bus.
  • The thermal spas (Muslim Friendly) and mossy canyons of Shikotsu-Toya National Park are within easy striking distance of Sapporo.
  • Asahikawa Asahiyama Zoo is the most famous and most visited zoo in Japan, even though it's in the middle of nowhere (at least a two-hour trip from Sapporo). Its most famous exhibits are the penguins which walk around the park twice daily (THE must see for all the Japanese who find this immensely cute), and the seals that you can see swim vertically through a large transparent pipe. It also features polar bears, wolves, Japanese deers, big cats, different kinds of monkeys and more. It's most impressive in winter when it's covered in snow (have you ever seen a giraffe walking in snow?!) but a few of the exhibits are also closed during this season.
