Paseo, Commercial building in Kita-ku, Sapporo, Japan

Paseo is a commercial building in Kita-ku, Sapporo, Japan. It stands near the north exit of Sapporo Station and houses a mix of shops, cafes, and services across its floors.

Paseo opened in the early 1970s as part of the redevelopment around Sapporo Station. It has since been renovated to keep up with changing shopping habits and remains a key part of the station area.

The name Paseo comes from the Spanish word for a stroll, and the building reflects that idea with wide walkways and open spaces. Locals often use it as a shortcut between the station and nearby streets, stopping to browse or meet friends.

The building is directly connected to Sapporo Station, so you can reach it without going outside. Use the north exit and follow the signs; the layout is easy to navigate, with escalators and elevators serving each floor.

The building has a rooftop garden that is open to the public, offering a spot to sit outside without leaving the complex. Few visitors notice it, but it provides a view over the station area.
