Agriculture meets culture
Set in the heart of the Tokachi Plain, Obihiro offers a refreshing mix of local flavor, open landscapes, and unique cultural experiences. Known for its rich agricultural heritage, visitors can savor some of Hokkaido’s freshest produce and dairy, indulge in sweets at renowned patisseries, or soak in moor hot springs—Japan’s rare plant-based onsen. Don't miss the one-of-a-kind Banei Horse Racing, where powerful draft horses compete in a test of strength and stamina. With easy access to nearby nature spots like Tokachigawa Onsen and the vast Naitai Highland, Obihiro is ideal for a slow-paced yet fulfilling escape.
