Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

We are Japan First Timer (JFT), a small Muslim team with one mission:
to make traveling in Japan easier, safer, and more barakah for Muslims everywhere.

Hokkaido is one of the most beautiful regions in Japan — the snow, the winter scenery, the calmness. But unlike Tokyo or Osaka, halal options here are still very limited, and many Muslim travelers struggle to find places to eat or a spot to pray.

We’ve experienced this challenge ourselves.
That is why we spent months researching, verifying, and organizing halal-certified, Muslim-friendly, and prayer-friendly spots across Hokkaido. Our hope is that, in the future, more halal-certified restaurants will open across Hokkaido, not only in Sapporo but also in cities like Otaru, Asahikawa, Hakodate, and beyond, inshaAllah.
