Hokkaido is among the most popular islands in Japan, especially in winter since the island is known for its spectacular winter atmosphere across the island. This is even more true if you are food lovers, since the island is packed with signature dishes, including king crabs, Hokkaido milk soft serve, and so much more.

The north island is also known for several places to relax yourself, including soaking in the hot spring since the weather during this period is freezing cold, and this is one of the spots for warming yourself in the freezing weather.

We have a blog post listing the places to go in Hokkaido, if you are interested, be sure to check it out on this blog entry. We also would like to remind you that Japan is using the Japanese Yen (JPY) as its currency.

Besides the film, Busan also has several tourist attractions that you might want to visit in the winter season like this. For instance, Jagalchi Fish Market is one of its landmarks for experiencing fresh seafood.

And if you are a ski lover, you might not want to miss Eden Ski Resort, where you can enjoy skiing on a large slice of snow-covered land. Finally, enjoy the city’s vista at the top of the Busan Tower.

Multi-cultural City in Hanoi, Vietnam

Vietnam is one of our neighboring countries, and you might not expect to be on this list. However, considering that the country just passed the rainy season, like Thailand, it is easier to travel to since you do not need to worry about the rain.

And, if you are planning to have a trip in Vietnam, Hanoi is one of the cities that we highly recommend. The city is one of the most diverse cultural cities in the region. It is known for its arts, food, rich histories, and day-to-day activities, making it the perfect place for you to explore.
