JR Tower Observation Deck T38
A Sky-High Escape of Stunning Views and Gentle Melodies
A landmark directly connected to JR Sapporo Station, this premier vantage point stands as the tallest observation deck in Hokkaido.
From the 6th-floor reception, a high-speed elevator whisks you up to the 38th floor in moments. At 160 meters above ground, a breathtaking 360-degree panorama unfolds before your eyes. By day, take in a sweeping urban landscape stretching toward distant mountains. As twilight falls, the scene transforms into a romantic sea of lights—recognized as one of Japan’s New Top Three Night Views. The scenery shifts beautifully with the seasons and throughout the day, offering a fresh and memorable experience each time you visit.
Inside, the observation deck is filled with a calming soundscape based on the unique “Planetary Scale,” creating a relaxing atmosphere. Artworks by local Hokkaido designers are displayed throughout the space, giving the observatory the feel of a modern art gallery.
On the south side, T’CAFE offers a welcoming place to unwind by expansive windows. Enjoy freshly baked cakes and aromatic coffee during the day, or sip wine, beer, and cocktails at night while admiring the glittering city lights. Take in the crisp northern air and spend an unforgettable moment in this serene sky-high retreat.
