Wakkanai is Japan's northernmost city, located at the tip of Hokkaido Prefecture. This port city faces the Sea of Japan to the west and the Sea of Okhotsk to the east, serving as an important transportation hub with connections to Russia's Sakhalin Island. The city's unique geographical location and harsh winter climate have shaped its cultural identity and architecture.
Notable landmarks include the Wakkanai Port North Breakwater Dome, a distinctive colonnade structure built to protect pedestrians from strong winds and snow. The area's history reflects the complex relationships between Japan and Russia, visible in its architecture and cultural influences.
The city is also known for its fresh seafood, particularly its high-quality uni (sea urchin) and crab, which play a significant role in local cuisine and economy.
