team langit conquering tsu dome
The first Sapporo Snow Festival venue my family went to before seeing the sparkling Susukino and the magnificent Odori Park is the white snow fields of Tsu Dome. This site is our first snow endeavour as a family. It’s so obvious that it is our first snow adventure because as soon as we arrived at the site the first thing me and my family did was to take shelter by getting inside a heated cabin and ordered the hottest instant noodles available!

tsu dome! fun! fun! fun!
It was the first day of the festival when we arrived at Tsu Dome. This is evidenced because the snow artists for the site’s snow sculpture exhibits has just started with their work.
The distinctive character of Tsu Dome as compared to Susuki and Odori Park venues is that the features are family-oriented and the site is more interactive. There’s a lot of things to do in the site that involves snow-related family activities. The site actually fits more to the children’s liking and I have never seen so much Japanese kids in my life until that day! It’s the Sapporo Snow Festival that should not be missed if you have kids.
young sculptors up for something…
thatcher in a picture perfect moment…
that is sooo japanese!
Good thing my genius nephews and nieces considered this place as the first site to visit among the three major venues of the snow festival. Otherwise, this site could have become a little boring if our itinerary started with the bravura of the giant snow sculptures of Odori Park.
Anyway, aside from the outdoor snow activities, there are also lots of kiddie features, events and goings-on inside the imposing dome. Channeling the kids in us, every one of us did the snow rafting ride as towed by a snowmobile. I, my younger sister, nephews and nieces also cracked the thrill offered by the gigantic snow slide!
awesome! after the doing a scary water rafting in davao river, this is kid stuff for nengkoy
super fun!

Tsu Dome was a nice start. It was a pure clean fun site of the Sapporo Snow Festival.
