4K Japan Walk the Day after Record Breaking Snowfall Sapporo suburban January 2026記録的なドカ雪翌日の北海道札幌郊外を歩く
Even the major roads are paralyzed. This is the reality of the world’s snowiest city after a record-breaking blizzard.
This video was filmed on the morning of Monday, January 26, 2026, in the suburban area of Nishi-ku, Sapporo, following the heavy snowfall that hit the city the previous day.
Starting from the Miyanosawa area, I walk towards the Hassamu Bridge. You can see the main artery of Hokkaido, Route 5, in a state of total gridlock due to the massive accumulation of snow. The contrast between the silent, snow-buried residential streets and the chaotic, frozen traffic on the main road shows the true face of winter in Sapporo.

Experience the immersive sounds of crunching snow and the overwhelming white landscape in 4K.
