Following the "Emergency Declaration" of the new coronavirus issued by Governor Suzuki of Hokkaido, tourist facilities in Sapporo, such as the Sapporo Clock Tower and Maruyama Zoo, were temporarily closed from 1st, and became a quiet Sunday.

Following the spread of the new coronavirus, Governor Suzuki has issued an "Emergency Declaration," urging him to refrain from going out this weekend.

In response to this, tourist facilities representing Sapporo were temporarily closed on the 1st.

At the clock tower in Sapporo, tourists wearing masks occasionally visited, but they were closed and could not enter the facility, taking a commemorative photo with the clock tower in the background.

At Maruyama Zoo, a signboard was set up at the main gate to inform them that the park was closed.

Some people came to enjoy the winter animals, but unfortunately turned back.

A man in his thirties said, "I did not know the park was closed. I am sorry I came from Tokyo. Nowhere is closed and there is no place to go."

At Sapporo's tourist facilities, the Sapporo TV Tower Observation Deck and the Sapporo Hitsujigaoka Observation Deck will also be closed temporarily from the 2nd to the 19th.
