Shiroi Koibito Park et Ishiya Chocolate Factory - Ma principale chose à faire à Sapporo



Ce message peut contenir des liens d'affiliation sur lesquels je gagne une petite commission sans frais pour vous. S'il vous plaît voir mon page de divulgation pour information.

Hey everyone, it’s Matt from Still as Life, and I’m super excited to share this amazing place with you! In all honesty, it is my absolute favourite place in Sapporo on Japon’s northern island of Hokkaido.

Question

Have you ever felt like you were Charlie in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory? If so, where? Let me know in the comments at the end of this page, I’d love to hear about it.

Getting to Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory

Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory are located in the north-west suburbs of Sapporo, the largest city in Hokkaido, Japon. It can be a little confusing to get to though because it goes by two names which vary depending on what you read or who you speak to. To be honest, I’m still confused. The signage at the factory calls it Ishiya Chocolate Factory, as does some of the material you are given if you take the self-guided museum tour. However, you won’t find it on TripAdvisor under Ishiya Chocolate Factory, TripAdvisor lists it as Shiroi Koibito Park, the same name used for the official website. My assumption is that since Shiroi Koibito is actually the flagship cookie product made by Ishiya, the factory and surrounding park have become known as Shiroi Koibito Park. So what does this have to do with getting there?

Getting there by car

Well, if you are driving there, and search on Google Maps for Shiroi Koibito Park, even though that appears to be the official name for it, you won’t find it. You need to search for Ishiya Chocolate Factory.

The full address is:

Chocolaterie Ishiya
2 Chome-11-36 Miyanosawa 2 Jo, Nishi-ku, Sapporo-Shi, Hokkaido 063-0052, Japon

You can also search for “White Lover Park” (the literal translation of Shiroi Koibito is “White Lover”), and Google Maps will find that for you too. One thing to note though is that the location marker for White Lover Park is located further away from the main museum and factory entrance so you may have to walk further if you park on that side.

When we arrived, we were directed to a car park across the road from the factory itself, located here:

Parking is free, and should you find yourself parked here on a rainy day, the thoughtful people at Ishiya have free umbrellas ready for you too!

Getting there by public transport

If you are travelling by public transport, then you are in luck because you can easily get here via the subway! If you take the Tozai subway line to the final station, Miyanosawa Station, it’s about a 15-minute ride from Odori station at the heart of Sapporo followed by a 700-750m walk to the factory. There is a slight uphill grade from the station, but it isn’t steep so most travellers should be able to do the walk with no trouble at all.

Not into the subway? You can also take the bus! Take the Chuo or JR bus from the JR Sapporo Bus Terminal headed in the Otaru direction and hop off at the Nishimachi Kita 20-Chome bus stop. It’s then about a 6-minute walk.

Getting there by tour bus

There are reasonably priced tour buses available from the Sapporo Station Bus Terminal operated by Hokkaido Chuo that include a stop off at Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory in addition to other city sights.

Hokkaido Chuo Tour Bus
Hokkaido Chuo Tour Bus

Half-day tour booking is available online through Klook for 2600 yen.

Full-day tours that include Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory are also available. The half and full-day tours can be booked directly with Hokkaido Chuo buses at the terminal, or through their website Ici, starting at 2600 yen.

The half-day tours operate in the morning, departing the bus terminal at 9:30 am and returning at 1:35 pm in Summer or 8:50 am returning at 1:15 pm in Winter.

Most of the bus tours offer approximately 60 minutes at the factory.

A number of tour options are also available through Viateur et Klook to suit your budget.

Admission fees and other costs

Admission to Shiroi Koibito Park is free. This allows you to access the external park grounds and experience the beauty and merriment that exists here, including the rose garden. So whether you come on your own or by tour bus, you know you don’t have to pay any more, unless you want to.

To enter Ishiya Chocolate Factory and the self-guided museum tour, there is a fee of 600 yen per person for people high school age and older. For children, it is 200 yen, and for infants 3 years and younger, admission is free.

It’s pretty cheap for what it is and in my opinion well worth it. If you are here on a tour bus though you will definitely want to keep track of time. It’s easy to spend more than an hour inside.

100 yen discounts for adults are common and can be obtained quite easily. If you hire a voiture de location, be sure to check the travel magazine that comes with it as these often include vouchers for Shiroi Koibito Park as well as many other attractions.

There are multiple dining options on-site that are available at an additional fee, and there are also some activities available in the cookie-making workshop for an extra charge. Some tours do include some of these additional activities.

Opening hours

Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory are open every day from 9:00 am until 18:00 pm with the last admittance at 17:00 pm. The store is open an hour longer until 19:00 pm.

About Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory

A place of wonder

As I saw the building, entered the park and began to explore the wacky world within, it struck me.

If Charlie and the Chocolate Factory were real, this is the closest experience to it that I’ve ever encountered.

Everything here is fun. It has been designed to entertain, educate, inspire, and bring out the inner child in everyone.

This place is where I had my Charlie and the Chocolate Factory experience of complete awe and wonder. Have you ever had that experience? If so, where? Don’t forget to let me know down in the comments below!

So what makes this place so magical? That is a long story that almost has to be experienced to really understand it!

There are actually five parts to this factory:

  1. The museum
  2. The factory
  3. The Chocolate Lounge
  4. The store and Candy Labo
  5. The external park

The Museum

Museum and factory entry are available for the small fee of 600 yen for adults which includes a Shiroi Koibito cookie each, and a “passport” to get stamped throughout the museum if you wish to.

The ticket desk is located at the museum entrance near the base of the clock tower. Make sure you have cash though as cards are not accepted. English is limited depending on who you speak to, but it’s easy to point to adults and children and show on your fingers how many tickets you need for each.

Once you enter, the first room is absolutely breathtaking and left us speechless…

The Fountain

The centrepiece of this room is the ornate, blue and gold Aurora Fountain situated below a detailed ceiling mural.

Aurora Fountain

Made in approximately 1870 by the English Royal Doulton Company, this piece feels like it belongs in a palace.

The cornices are gilded and everything has been crafted with care and attention, even down to the regal doorways and fireplace.

An official photographer is available to take your photo in front of the fountain, both on their own equipment, and on your camera if you have one.

Around the outer edge of the room is a raised balcony that gets you up close and personal with the ceiling details and also takes you to the photo stand to buy your professional photo print if you wish to.

The Stained Glass Room

Next is the stained glass room, with stained glass ceilings and windows.

The detail continues here with delicate carvings everywhere!

This long narrow room takes you across the raised walkway from the museum entrance to the factory, but don’t worry the museum isn’t finished yet.

The Hot-Chocolate Cup Room

From the stained glass room, you step into the hot-chocolate cup room.

Demitasse-Package Room

Enter the Demitasse-Package room. This is an interesting room focused on packaging used over the years. It isn’t just any packaging though. A demitasse is a small coffee cup, so the packaging is actually for small cups.

Chocolate Time Tunnel

The chocolate time tunnel takes you through the historic process of converting cocoa pods into chocolate in miniature form. It’s actually quite cool.

Cookie Factory Production Line

On the other side of the Chocolate Time Tunnel is the Shiroi Koibito cookie production line.

It takes you through the process right from the start. Unfortunately, the chocolate making and first part of cookie production, the mixing, is only shown in diagram form.

From there though, you can see just about everything and even touch a few things.

The first thing you can see is the chocolate conching, preparing it to just the right smoothness for the cookie centre.

Next is the baking room, a giant series of ovens.

You can’t see a huge amount inside, but it also has a touch panel to feel the heat.

Next up, you can see the chocolate being sandwiched between the cookies while they are still warm.

From here on, the production line has been decorated with children having fun, sculpted and painted all around the upper sections of the walls.

It is really, really fun just looking around and seeing all the different activities that these children are getting up to.

Of course, it’s also interesting to watch the workers making these yummy cookies.

Next, the cookies go through a chiller for 10 minutes to cool them down to 6 degrees or less and set the chocolate.

There is a touch point here too so you can feel how cool it is!

Sugarcraft

Just outside the Chocolate Lounge cafe are, there is actually another piece of the museum, sugarcraft.

The Chocolate Lounge cafe

A trip to Shiroi Koibito Park and Ishiya Chocolate Factory would not be complete without a pit stop at the Chocolate Lounge.

Here, you can indulge in a variety of sweets, from enormous parfaits to chocolate fondue and other assorted desserts.

Don’t go past a hot chocolate though. This is what the Chocolate Lounge is known for, and there are a variety of gourmet options to choose from.

Looks expensive!

I went with the dark chocolate “Valrhona”, and wifey opted for the milk chocolate “Felchlin”. We also got one of the small, Gianduja Chocolate parfait’s to share.

Chocolate? Yes, please!
Chocolate? Yes, please!

Depending on when you go, the cafe can be very busy, so be sure to allow a good chunk of time for it. It took us about 10 minutes to get a seat, and another 30 minutes to place our order and enjoy the decadence.

The process is:

  1. Line up to put your name down on the list for a table.
  2. The attendant will take your name and the number of seats you need – to our amusement, the attendant spoke no English and had me write down my own name amongst a sea of Japanese writing.
  3. You can either wait and if you are lucky there might be a space available on the waiting bench, or you can wander through the sugarcraft section.
  4. Once a table is ready for you, they will call your name out. If they don’t speak English, they will probably just came and find you as they did for us (it might not hurt to stay somewhere obvious)!
  5. Once you are seated, you will be given menus, and soon after, your waiter will take your order. They will also leave a slip on your table.
  6. Times vary, and since the small parfaits are pre-made they come out quite fast. Freshly prepared items like the hot chocolate can take longer if the cafe is busy. We waited about 15 minutes for ours.
  7. Enjoy!
  8. Your waiter will confirm if there is anything else you need, and when you are ready they will take the slip of paper and come back with your bill.
  9. Take the bill to the cashier and pay for your mouth-watering treat.

Our hot chocolates came out in Shiroi Koibito’s signature, gold-detailed mugs, including gold embossed saucer and gold stirrer.

These mugs make you feel pretty special

They were also served with a syrup the waiter explained was an orenji sweetener. For the uninitiated, it turns out that it’s a sweet orange syrup that gives your hot chocolate a Jaffa flavour.

Our parfait came out with two beautifully presented parfait spoons, and we were blown away.

The parfait is unbelievably rich. It was a struggle for us to get through it and the hot chocolate, but we made it. It also turns out that the chocolate syrup used in the Gianduja parfait has a coffee liqueur in it that wifey was not keen on.

As we waited, and while we were enjoying our treats, we were amazed at the detail-rich finishings in the cafe.

As with the rest of the museum and factory, there are intricate carvings and sculptures all around the large atrium-style room. The raised ceiling I supported by Romanesque columns and the large, window wall looking over the park makes it feel extremely open.

Much to our delight, we were treated to a musical show opposite the window.

The wall below the clock-tower opened up and a number of robotic animals and people appeared, dancing and playing instruments to a catchy tune.

It was one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I’ve had, and if you loved the mugs, you can take one home with you! They are sold at the cashier’s desk for 8100 yen each.

The Inner Court

As we made our way down the stairs from the cafe, we saw a little bit of a show in the Gramophone Theater situated beside the stairs.

At the bottom, they opened out to the gallery on the second level above the inner court. This space gives a perfect photo opportunity for the beautiful court stairs in Tudor House.

The Toy Museum

On the other side of the gallery, the museum continues. This section is actually free to access if you come in via the Tudor House store entrance. Here, it takes a step back from the world of chocolate, but doesn’t leave the fun behind at all!

Also in Tudor House is Candy Labo. Another space for fun and entertainment with colourful candies everywhere.

There is a regular candy making show, and of course, it can all be purchased. This is not much different to Candy Kitchen at Coffs Harbour’s Big Banana, so we didn’t wait for the next show to start, but it’s something that kids especially would love!

The Hells Angel

I really don’t know what this has to do with anything at all, but as we made our way out, we were met with this intense, piped motorbike sculpture by Nathan Watton called “The Hell’s Angel”.

The Park (Shiroi Koibito Park)

The outdoor park area of Shiroi Koibito Park is freely accessible and can be entered without a museum/factory tour ticket. If you don’t want to spend the money or don’t have time to do the full tour, this park is worth a visit on its own, and it will be different depending on what time of year you visit.

We visited in early August, and as you can see the flowers are in full bloom, so the park is full of vibrant colour.

The colour in the flowers bring out the colour in the factory building.

It’s an unbelievably beautiful place. Even without the flowers though, you can enjoy the unusual combination of architecture.

With inspiration from all over the world, parts look like factory, other parts like large houses, and still others like they could be from a town hall.

Il y a des lampadaires disséminés dans le parc, et avec leurs détails dorés et leur apparence presque britannique, ils pourraient être tout droit sortis de Narnia.

Il y a des cabanes et des espaces minuscules partout avec de minuscules tables et chaises assorties, y compris sous des jardins fleuris, qui donnent presque l'impression d'être dans la Comté du Seigneur des Anneaux (AKA Matamata dans Nouvelle-Zélande).

Curieusement, il y a aussi un jardin de pommiers, et dans ce jardin se trouvent des postes de police anglais et japonais.

Apples!

Il y a un étang rempli de nénuphars avec une fontaine et des hippopotames.

Il y a une belle roseraie, et les vignes grimpent sur les murs des bâtiments, les faisant presque se fondre dans les jardins.

Shiroi Koibito Park Shows

Passez au moins 15 minutes ici et vous aurez droit au spectacle ! C'est le même spectacle que nous avons vu depuis le café, mais il y a tellement plus. Assurez-vous de regarder la vidéo YouTube ci-dessus, en particulier la dernière minute pour avoir une idée du spectacle!

Des fenêtres du café, nous ne pouvions voir que la partie dans la tour de l'horloge.

À l'extérieur de la salle des vitraux se trouve un trio de trompettistes robotiques, et au-dessus du jardin fleuri se trouve un quintuplé de chef dansant !

La mélodie est un vrai perce-oreille et est restée coincée dans nos têtes pendant des jours après !

Ne partez pas tout de suite cependant. Une fois le spectacle principal terminé, le Grand Meister démarre sous la tour de l'horloge.

Eh bien, nous avons finalement dû partir, mais nous avons pris le temps de vérifier les détails à l'extérieur de l'usine. Même ici, le plaisir continue. La clôture est surmontée de chats dorés sculptés et il y a des rangées de jardinières remplies de fleurs.

Pros

  1. J'aime le plaisir. Chaque aspect de cette usine a été conçu avec l'intention d'être apprécié. Cela rappelle les publicités Cadbury "Joyville", et Cadbury pourrait certainement apprendre quelque chose d'ici parce que pour moi, cet endroit est la définition de "Joyville", quelque chose que les usines de Cadbury ne sont pas.
  2. Facile d'accès en voiture ou en train, très proche d'une station de métro.
  3. Convient à tous les âges.
  4. Options gratuites disponibles qui valent le détour.
  5. Billets d'entrée bon marché avec des réductions facilement disponibles.
  6. Beaucoup d'informations et de signalisation en anglais facilement disponibles.
  7. Chocolat, biscuits, chocolat, oh et chocolat.
  8. Des ascenseurs sont disponibles pour les personnes avec poussettes ou handicapées.
  9. Quelle que soit la période de l'année à laquelle vous allez, vous vivrez une expérience différente dans les jardins.
  10. Ouvert tous les jours de l'année.

Cons

  1. Il y a beaucoup de choses à assimiler et il peut être difficile pour les enfants de prendre le temps d'apprécier les sections du musée.
  2. Vous pouvez prendre du poids.
  3. Les jardins varient d'une saison à l'autre, donc pour voir en fleurs ou pour voir les décorations d'hiver, il faut prévoir la période de l'année.
  4. Personnel anglophone très limité.

Overall

Sur TripAdvisor, Shiroi Koibito Park est marqué comme un endroit pour faire du shopping plutôt qu'une chose à faire (à tort, à mon avis), et dans le shopping, il est classé numéro un dans Sapporo.

Je pense que cela devrait être classé comme une chose à faire car c'est bien plus que du shopping, et pour mon vote, c'est la première chose à faire dans Sapporo de loin.

C'est divertissant pour tout le monde, facile d'accès et bon marché. Le seul bémol est que vous pourriez y passer beaucoup trop de temps sans vous en rendre compte !

En tant que tel, Je dirais que c'est mon attraction incontournable #1 dans Sapporo.

Argent de voyage et conversion de devises : Nous utilisons les deux Up Bank et Sage pour les meilleurs taux de conversion de devises avec la prise en charge d'Apple Pay et d'Android Pay, ainsi qu'un excellent support client intégré à l'application pendant que vous voyagez.

Vols: Nous vérifions quelques sites pour des prix différents. En provenance d'Australie, je vérifie toujours Qantas directement pour les vols de récompense, mais sinon, je vérifie et compare le coût des vols avec SkyScanner. Cela vaut toujours la peine de vérifier les itinéraires et les jours alternatifs, en particulier lorsqu'il existe plusieurs options d'escale ou des aéroports alternatifs à proximité.

Hébergement: Nous réservons généralement par Agoda car nous trouvons que leurs prix sont les plus bas et que les politiques d'annulation + les avantages de fidélité fonctionnent le mieux. Nous utilisons également Airbnb de temps en temps.

Location de voiture: Nous utilisons AutoEurope pour comparer les prix des voitures de location avec toutes les grandes marques internationales comme Europcar, Budget, Hertz et Avis. Nous finissons généralement par utiliser Avis ou alors Europcar car ils offrent les meilleures offres (assurez-vous de vérifier leurs offres actuelles pour les remises bonus) et les deux entretiennent bien leurs véhicules avec des flottes relativement nouvelles.

Visites & Activités: Nous essayons généralement de réserver des activités via l'un de ces sites tiers ViateurObtenez votre guide & Klook en raison de leurs politiques d'annulation flexibles (nous ont fait économiser beaucoup d'argent en essayant de voyager après COVID) et de leurs garanties de prix (souvent de meilleurs prix que la réservation directe).
