Planning this outing
Choose a program from the official timetable before travelling to Shiraoi. Alternate indoor exhibits and outdoor movement, perhaps focusing on one topic you can discuss with your child. If continuing to Noboribetsu, compare hotel check-in and the time each visit deserves first.
