Great place for kids. The tip is that you do not have to buy souveniers there. You can buy the same things at JR station or major airports in Hokkaido. (I saw shiroi koibito cookies even at Narita airport.)

The chocolate factory is definitely an interesting experience. The building and park area look like they have been taken straight out of a German fairytale. Everything is very cute and I bet it looks a ton better in the summer time. The cost to walk through the chocolate factory/museum is 600 Yen. You get to see the history of chocolate... More

The building is very "kawaii", and its park is also nice. If you have enough budget, try to enter the factory, it costs around 600 yen. You can learn the making of chocolate, and even see by yourself its process and the machines. Quite the fun way to learn something new.

I've always enjoyed visiting a food factory, more so with something like chocolate, candies and cookies. The candy lab was closed though when we visited, but just looking at the variety at the store was already a very interesting experience. Aside from the popular chocolates, and cookies, you can also get the souvenirs like mini original Shiroi Koibito tin cans... More

It really is a chocolate and cookie factory, restaurant/cafe, toys exhibition, fairly tale designed building and garden all into one. A chocolate cookie was given to each person as part of the admission so you could try it before deciding to buy any. We didn't buy anything when we left but the experience was quite enjoyable for the family. You... More

Famous for its white chocolate, the Shiroi Koibito Park is one sight not to be missed. Get your choco cravings here and visit their Stadium as well! Be sure to be at the gardens of the park during the last minutes of every hour till the first minutes of next hour (during certain timings) to catch the bubbles that will... More

Parking was free. Actual "factory" part was shorter than expected, but still very interesting. Flight was late and we only arrived about an hour before the last entry time. We stayed about 2hrs and it was enough to see the basics, but definately deserved more time.

Its rather difficult to find this place , I input the phone for my gps it leads me to the office and thank god it's only a walking distance to the park , entrance is free so is parking , I went during summer , full blooms of beautiful flowers in the garden , cute little house decoration , creamy...

The train is wonderful for toddlers and the tunnel and waterfall are lovely. If you are there on the hour you can see a great display with music and bubbles. The new candy making part is cool too. Some other activities for older kids which we didn't try yet. The train is covered on rainy days and they loan umbrellas... More
