About this spot

This shopping complex spreads out in front of Shin-Sapporo Station and is the centre of shopping and dining in Atsubetsu Ward. With plenty of restaurants gathered together, it is easy for everyone to choose what they feel like eating, and helpfully easy to find a seat even with small children. Being indoors, you can spend the hours of strongest sunshine in the cool. Sunscreen, plastic bags, drinks and anything else you still need for water play can all be gathered here, which lets you enjoy the afternoon with peace of mind. Toilets and nappy changing facilities are well provided, so getting everyone ready here means you can start playing as soon as you reach the park.

Tips

It gets crowded at lunchtime, so arriving before noon makes it easier to find a seat. Spending too long shopping will cut into your afternoon water play, so it is more efficient to write a list before you go in. There is heavy foot traffic in front of the station, so hold hands with children so nobody gets separated. Atsubetsu-Nishi Park (厚別西公園) is about 10 minutes away by car.

Best time to visit

About 1 hour 15 minutes. Spending the hot hours around midday indoors is the comfortable choice
