The Ishikari Subprefectural Bureau in Hokkaido periodically releases "Ishikari Subprefectural Bureau News" on the official Hokkaido YouTube channel. These videos are planned, filmed, and edited by the staff themselves to provide a realistic look at the attractions and initiatives within the Ishikari jurisdiction (Sapporo, Ebetsu, Chitose, Eniwa, Kitahiroshima, Ishikari, Tobetsu, and Shinshinotsu).
Recently, young staff members released two new videos under the themes of "I tried going there" and "I tried making it."
■ "I actually went there!" Touring favorite spots in the Ishikari region
Staff members visited and experienced "favorite spots" in each municipality within the Ishikari region! The videos introduce spots perfect for casual outings, such as areas where you can enjoy nature and culture in Sapporo and Ebetsu, a unique aquarium in Chitose, and facilities where you can experience food and agriculture in Kitahiroshima. Furthermore, we deliver plenty of the unique charm of each region, including spots for interacting with animals and nature in Eniwa, scenic spots in Ishikari, historical facilities in Tobetsu, and an observatory experience in Shinshinotsu!
■ "I tried making it!" Enjoying an Ishikari picnic lunch with local ingredients
At the Shiroishi Community Center in Kita-ku, Sapporo, we challenged ourselves to make a picnic lunch using local specialty ingredients from the Ishikari region! We cooked "picnic bento" that are easy to make and visually appealing, and then enjoyed a picnic at Yurigahara Park. The video also introduces where to buy ingredients and cooking tips, so even those who are not good at cooking can easily copy it. The content allows you to fully feel the deliciousness of eating outside and the charm of local ingredients!
Through these videos, we deliver the diverse charm of the Ishikari region from an "experiential perspective." Please take a look for hints for sightseeing, weekend outings, or daily enjoyment!
