About Hakodate Orthodox Church
The Hakodate Orthodox Church is a stunning symbol of the Motomachi district. With its vivid green roof and white walls, the architecture creates an exotic atmosphere that feels like a step into a European streetscape.
More than just a photo spot, this historic sanctuary is a designated Important Cultural Property and remains a living place of prayer. One of its greatest charms is the evening illumination, which reveals a mystical side of the church different from its daytime appearance. Take a moment to soak in the history and spiritual serenity of Hakodate as the sound of the bells echoes through the air.
