Biei is a town in the central area of Hokkaido, mostly famous for the tremendous fields and hills. This small town is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Hokkaido because Biei has nothing but the most amazing landscapes and sceneries of the countryside which we can probably see anything similar in nowhere else in Japan.

Biei has two amazing driving roads called “Patchwork Road” and “Panorama Road” across the vast fields with numbers of beautiful view spots of farmland, hills and flower fields.

If you are planning to visit Biei, renting a car is essential so you can stop by and see the beautiful sceneries anytime you feel like. Biei’s public transportation system is quite slow and each spots are pretty far to each others to walk so it’s better to drive by yourself and save your time. Don’t you have a driving license? Then go on a bicycle! Cycling through the field is probably as good as driving or even better if you are an active traveller!

So here is a list of viewpoints on both roads.
