Want to experience the enchanting charm of a world blanketed in silver-white snow? Traveling to Japan or South Korea doesn’t require long and tiring journeys—just a few hours of flight will get you to your destination. Choosing to depart in the depths of winter allows you to witness beautiful snowy landscapes that are hard to see in Taiwan. To fulfill travelers’ wishes of getting up close and personal with snow, Five Blessings Travel has launched several Japan and Korea tour packages, ensuring that no matter which country or region you visit, you can personally experience the charm of a snowy wonderland.

In the Kanto region of Japan, the Yeti Ski Resort is the closest ski resort to the Tokyo area, and its location is near Mount Fuji, allowing you to enjoy the stunning views of Mount Fuji while skiing. The Yeti Ski Resort also offers different ski slopes for beginners, intermediate, and advanced skiers, so whether you’re skilled or not, you can have fun skiing here.

If you’d like to leisurely admire the vast snowy scenery, you can also head to Lake Ashi, known for never freezing all year round, and take a pirate ship cruise to view the Hakone Torii Shrine and the beautiful snow-covered mountains and forest paths along the way.

At Nara Deer Park in the Kansai region, you can buy deer crackers from vendors along the way to feed the sika deer. These deer are not afraid of people, and if you have their favorite deer crackers, they might even chase after you. For those who want to play in the snow in the Kansai area during winter, Rokko Snow Park is a must-visit attraction. It features a snowman-making machine that helps visitors easily create 50-centimeter-tall snowmen, perfect for family fun, playing in the snow with friends, or enjoying a romantic day with your loved one.

When it comes to Hokkaido, the most talked-about highlights are the night views of Hakodate and the charming snowy landscapes. In the tour packages offered by Five Blessings Travel this time, in addition to the above experiences, visitors can also get up close to alpacas at Shikisai no Oka and feel the cute and healing charm of these gentle creatures. Five Blessings Travel also specially includes related snow activities at Shikisai no Oka, such as snow banana boat rides, sledding, and snowmobile rides, ensuring visitors have a joyful and enriching snow experience.

For those planning a winter trip to South Korea, the Seoullo 7017 Skygarden opened in May 2017. It was transformed from the Seoul elevated road built in 1970, allowing you to enjoy views of Namsan Mountain and N Seoul Tower from a bridge 17 meters high. This skywalk also connects up to 17 attractions, including Namdaemun Market and Myeongdong, enabling travelers to enjoy the charm of a walking tour while taking in the urban scenery of Seoul.

There are several ski resorts in the suburbs of Seoul. According to arrangements by Five Blessings Travel, travelers may visit any of the following: Konjiam Ski Resort, Bearstown Ski Resort, Yangji Pine Ski Resort, or Jisan Forest Resort for their skiing adventure. At these resorts, visitors can experience skiing for the first time or practice their skills on slopes of varying difficulty. Aside from skiing, you can also build a unique snowman or have an exciting snowball fight with family and friends.

Spanning 4.5 million pyeong and featuring five themed zones—the Global Fair, American Adventure, Magic Land, European Adventure, and Safari World—Everland turns into a completely different world in winter when covered in snow. Unlike its usual lively and energetic atmosphere, it takes on a uniquely exotic charm. By taking the park train, you can also get up close to wildlife and observe the daily lives of wild beasts such as brown lions, white tigers, yellow tigers, Korean tigers, and hyenas.
