I went to Hakodate for work. I had a day off, so I walked around the city of Hakodate.
Hakodate is a city at the southern end of Hokkaido, the northern island of Japan. Before the 1870s, Hokkaido was hardly developed, but the area around Hakodate was an exception, and it was developed as a port town from ancient times. As expected, the city has become more modern in recent years, and the number of buildings with traditional designs has decreased significantly, but it still has an exotic atmosphere that is not found in other cities in Japan.
The city's tram is managed by the city, and has a 10.9 km line within the city. The gauge is 1372 mm, and the electricity is 600 V DC. It connects with JR at Hakodate Station. Currently, there is a mixture of old-style vehicles and modern low-floor vehicles.
I took photos on this line between Matsukaze-cho and Hakodate Dock-mae. The cab view inserted is between Jujigai Station and Hakodate Dock-mae. The driver's friendly announcements are also great. It's a line that makes you want to ride it in different seasons.

アクセスありがとうございます。
函館に仕事で出かけ、空き時間ができたので、路面電車の沿線を歩いてみました。撮影をしたのは松風町～函館どっく前間で、前面展望は十字街～函館どっく前です。運転士さんの優しいアナウンスが、とても良い感じです。また乗りに行きたくなる路線です。
