一般情報

Located at the southern tip of Hokkaido, Hakodate features a relatively temperate climate and bountiful nature and has continued to develop as a center of administration, economy and culture in southern Hokkaido. Opened as Japan's first port of international trade, Hakodate has experienced contact with various foreign cultures. This influence can still be felt in the city streets and the Western Area to this day. These cityscapes and the night view from the top of Mt. Hakodate, fresh and abundant seafood and hot spas are some of the assets that attract more than 4 million visitors annually to Hakodate.
The city underwent a merger with surrounding 4 municipalities in December of 2004 and became one of the nation's leading marine cities as a result. In May 2005, construction of the Hokkaido Shinkansen line between Shin-Aomori and Shin-Hakodate started. In June 2006, the regular international flight service between Hakodate and Seoul (Inchon) was inaugurated.
