This camera looks toward Mount Moiwa, the hill that rises above Sapporo on Japan's northern island of Hokkaido. It is a useful way to check the city's skyline and the mountain's changing seasons before planning a visit or simply keeping an eye on the weather from afar.
About the mountain and city
Sapporo is the largest city on Hokkaido and the capital of the prefecture, known for its wide grid of streets, its beer heritage and the Sapporo Snow Festival in February. Mount Moiwa is a modest peak on the city's southwest edge, reached by a ropeway, and it offers one of the best-known panoramic views over the urban area toward the surrounding hills and the Ishikari Plain.
What to watch and when
Depending on the view, you may see the city lights spreading across the plain after dark, morning mist lifting off the lowlands, or the mountain lightly dusted with snow from late autumn into spring. Clear winter days tend to give the sharpest outlines, while summer evenings bring the greenest scenery and the longest light.
Climate and getting around
Sapporo has a cold, snowy winter and a mild, humid summer, with cherry blossom usually in late April or early May and colorful autumn foliage in October. The city is well connected by subway, streetcar and the Chitose airport line, and nearby VizCams cameras cover other parts of Sapporo within a few kilometers, including several views of the surrounding streets.
