The City
The guide was updated:
It would be hard to loose yourself in modern Sapporo, as it is structured by an American style grid system, with streets named and numbered according to the points of the compass. Odori Park, Sapporo's “Central Park”, runs through the centre of the city, dividing the North from the South. You will find that art is heavily present in this comparatively modern city.
The northern side houses the university and its student “hang-outs”, as well as several traditional ryokan inns. To the south lies the shopping district with department stores and restaurants. You'll find Susukino with wall-to-wall entertainment here, locals and visitors alike congregating here to enjoy the variety of bars, restaurants and clubs.
