Susukino

Susukino is the largest nightlife district north of Tokyo, boasting approximately fourty-five hundred restaurants, bars and entertainment facilities, along with a number of Hokkaido's leading places for gourmets, such as Ramen Yokocho (Ramen Row). Recently, sauna facilities and hotels that offer natural hot spring baths have become popular. Because the district has many fashionable cafe bars and "hideaway" restaurants, groups of women can come for drinks and feel safe. On the other hand, men should watch out for "customer-pullers" that try to lure them into expensive bars.
