      Once unimaginably far in the back of beyond, the name Abashiri used to strike terror into the hearts of suspected lawbreakers: it was the site of Japan's first maximum-security prison, built in 1890 when the enlightened Meiji era leaders decided to copy Western ways instead of simply executing convicted criminals. Enlightenment in this case, however, translated into backbreaking hard labor (mostly road construction) and, for difficult cases like political prisoners, unheated cells in a region where winter temperatures often fall below -20 degrees C (-4°F). The prison was finally closed in 1984, though a newly constructed prison continues the tradition.

      Today's Abashiri is an unattractive modern town filled with the implements and smells of its largest industry, fishing.

    • filter_dramaSee
      The original buildings of the infamous prison, but moved halfway up Mt. Tento to free up some real estate. Inside are wax dolls of prisoners and a hair-raising array of shackles and other prison paraphernalia.

      * A modern and moderately interesting museum documenting the lives of northern peoples around the world, not just Japan's own Ainu, but Canadian Inuit, Scandinavian Sami and many more. Most of the material is also in English and there are some fairly bizarre exhibits involving, among other things, seal intestines.

      * A museum devoted to pack ice, a common phenomenon in the Okhotsk Sea but for some reason a subject of fascination among the Japanese. Here you will learn all you ever wanted to know and more about pack ice, and even get a chance to touch some in a room kept at -15 degrees C (5 degrees F) (coats provided).
    • filter_dramaDo
      In winter, when the famed pack ice has surrounded the town, you can hop aboard this boat for a one-hour tour of the stuff up close and personal.
    • filter_dramaBuy
    • filter_dramaEat
      Being a fishing port, the thing to eat here is fresh seafood, particularly crab. There's a morning market (網走感動朝市) with great selection.
    • filter_dramaDrink
      Like every other city in Hokkaido, Abashiri has its own microbrew. The brewery is open to visitors and also serves lunch and dinner.
    • filter_dramaSleep
      Offers good views of the Okhotsk Sea.
    • filter_dramaStay safe
    • filter_dramaContact
      This is a net cafe with drink bar, karaoke room, manga, and showers. The showers could be nice for anyone traveling on the cheap.
    • filter_dramaGet out
      The best reasons to come to Abashiri are the natural attractions near it.
      * [wiki=31e2d75d752b7ff57136c15cd13f8e02]Shiretoko National Park[/wiki], to the east, is one of Japan's best yet least visited national parks.
      * [wiki=f3e7884a06146cd737e183f7cc6dd036]Akan National Park[/wiki], to the south, is known for its three mysterious lakes.
      * The onsen village of Utoro in [wiki=e905ec775c008825622c1223c6b32591]Shari[/wiki] is popular with onsen lovers.
