Many visitors from other parts of Japan come to Nemuro, the easternmost city of Japan, aiming that they want to see the first sunrise of New Year. Though, watching the first sunrise at any time of year has become one of the top things to do in the city. In winter, when the sun rises, rosy dawn shines on the drift ice makes Nemuro Strait a must-see, with or without wild animals. In beautiful days, we can also enjoy the view of Kunashiri Island, which means dark island in Ainu language, because it is usually hidden behind clouds and mist.
