Toyohira-ku

Toyohira-ku spans 46.35 square kilometers and maintains a population of 224,958 residents within its mixed residential and commercial neighborhoods in Sapporo.

The area transformed from agricultural land with apple farms in 1874 to an official town in 1908, later integrating into Sapporo City in 1961.

The ward celebrates its heritage through two mascots: Korin, representing the historical apple farming, and Mētan, symbolizing the local sheep farming tradition.

Multiple bus routes and transportation networks connect residents to central Sapporo, while local amenities include schools, parks, and shopping districts.

The Sapporo Dome in Toyohira-ku features a retractable playing surface that switches between baseball and soccer configurations for professional sports events.
