Japan’s Northern City of Balance
About Sapporo
Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido, is one of Japan’s most livable and relaxed cities with a population of about two million.
It is known for its rare balance of modern comfort and natural beauty — a place where you can leave downtown and find yourself surrounded by forests and rivers in less than 30 minutes, sharing the same landscape with native wildlife such as Ezo deer, red foxes, and Hokkaido squirrels.
The city’s layout is open and easy to explore, with wide streets, clean air, and a calm rhythm that feels different from Tokyo or Osaka.
In spring, cherry blossoms bloom in Maruyama Park; in summer, the trees grow deep green and birds fill the parks with their song; autumn colors spread across the slopes of Mount Moiwa; and in winter, the city turns into a soft white landscape famous for the Sapporo Snow Festival.
Sapporo is also a city of trust and kindness.
Public transport is reliable, English signage is common, and people are always willing to help visitors — often with a smile and simple English words.
Whether you love nature, food, photography, or peaceful urban life, Sapporo offers a Japan that feels both genuine and refreshingly easy to experience.
Options for Every Traveler from India
Food in Sapporo
Sapporo is gradually becoming more aware of the dietary diversity of international visitors. While restaurants that specifically cater to vegetarian, vegan, Jain, or Halal needs are still limited, many places are open-minded and willing to adapt when requests are explained politely. Travelers who plan ahead — and know what kind of restaurants to look for — can still enjoy local flavors with comfort.
Below are some practical tips for finding meals that suit your preferences in Sapporo.
Vegetarian & Vegan Travelers
Reality in Sapporo:
Restaurants designed exclusively for vegetarians or vegans are limited, yet more cafés and curry houses now include vegetable-based dishes and dairy-free meals.
Japanese cuisine naturally offers some plant-based options such as rice, tofu, miso soup, and vegetable tempura.
How to find them:
Search “vegetarian friendly Sapporo,” “vegan café,” or “organic food” on Google Maps or HappyCow.
Around Sapporo Station and Odori Park, many international cafés can adapt menus on request.
Convenience stores provide simple vegan snacks like rice balls with seaweed, pickles, or fruit.
If none are nearby:
You can ask for dishes without meat, fish, or egg. Some restaurants are willing to prepare simple meals such as steamed rice, vegetables, or miso soup with vegetable broth.
Jain & Strict Vegetarian Travelers
Reality in Sapporo:
Strict Jain meals are almost unavailable. Even vegetarian dishes often contain onion or garlic.
However, some hotels and international restaurants can prepare simple meals — rice, lentils, and boiled vegetables — when notified in advance.
How to find them:
Look for hotels or restaurants noting “special meal requests accepted.”
International restaurants are generally more familiar with dietary restrictions.
If none are nearby:
Buy fruits, breads, and plain rice at supermarkets or convenience stores. Hotel kitchens or serviced apartments are helpful for preparing your own meals.
Halal & Muslim-Friendly Travelers

Halal-certified or Muslim-friendly restaurants are few but exist around Odori and Susukino areas.
Some offer Halal meat; others simply avoid pork and alcohol.
Seafood dishes are widely available and often acceptable for many Muslim travelers.
How to find them:
Search “Halal Sapporo” or use apps like Halal Gourmet Japan or Muslim Friendly Japan.
Tourist centers and hotels often keep printed Halal restaurant lists.
If none are nearby:
Request seafood or vegetarian dishes — most restaurants understand “no pork, no alcohol” in simple English.
For travelers without strict dietary limits, Sapporo is easy to enjoy.The city is known for fresh seafood, vegetables, and dairy from Hokkaido.Popular dishes such as soup curry, grilled fish, and seasonal vegetables are available almost everywhere.
General Advice:
Menu photos and food samples make it easy to understand dishes before ordering.
Tourist information counters (Sapporo Station, Odori) can guide you to Halal or vegetarian options.
Tap water is safe to drink, and supermarkets are reliable for simple meals.
