Otaru Canal rewards a visit for the historic waterfront and stone warehouses of Otaru’s trading era. The canal towpath gives a close view of the old port buildings. Dusk lights are appealing, though conditions on the waterfront can be windy.

The towpath is a good way to connect Otaru’s maritime past with the warehouses still standing beside the water. Dusk lights are appealing, though conditions on the waterfront can be windy.
