Japan Photo of the Week: Toyako

June 28th, 2008 by Evan

If you are looking to escape the heat and humidity of Japan, Hokkaido is the place to be in the summer. There are many places worth visiting and summer time is the perfect time for a lot of these places. One place that will be publicized this year is the hot spring resorts of Toyako, where this years G8 Summit will be held July 7th-9th.

This photos was taken just after sunset and just before the daily “festival” that they have during the summer. If you make the trip to Hokkaido, it would not be a waste of time to check out Lake Toya. For more photos check out the Japan Photo Guide or the gallery.

This photograph was taken by Evan Pike.
