It is a steep walk from the red brick warehouses but worth seeing the mixed churches - Russion, Catholic, and buddhist temple

Nice neighbourhood with old churches. Other attractions are also around the same area. We spent 3 to 4 hours walking around and visiting the various historical buildings.

Love the scenery there and also the building. Is a must to go if you are at Hakodate! After visiting the morning market, you may continue with the Red Brick Warehouse, where you can see the old warehouse although it has been refurbished. You also can buy lots of souvenirs here and taste delicious desserts here. About 10 minutes walk, you will find the slopes streets at Motomachi. You can take the city tram to the last stop and walk to Motomachi, you can see each slopes with different views.

Old district with mixed Japanese - Western architecture, mostly from 19th century. Lots of different churches, shrines and temples, shops and museums. Nice place to explore

Was not impressed with this area. Just a bunch of churches and buildings. If you are pressed for time, you can skip this area

We wandered up here by ourselves, passing lots of statues, markers, churches, and beautiful buildings. We sat in the park and used the diagram to identify all of the mountains and buildings in the distance. This is a 15 minute walk up the hill past the red

Enjoyed walking around this area. Would have been better with less crowd but that’s not something we can control

The Motomachi area is quiet and has several historical buildings and churches. It’s a nice walk around the area. Photographers will love this place for its picturesque buildings and scenery.

Nice wide tree lined streets with some great bronze statues. Easy to get there by tram with bit of a stiff climb up the hills. The gardens are also nice with the roses in the old British Embassy really something worth seeing.

A walk around Motomachi's famous sloping hills is a must if in Hakodate, especially if it's your first time. There are some lovely historical buildings as well as cafe's, although everything closes in the evening.
