Space evokes Hokkaido, snow falls by the hour

The restaurant is inspired by Hokkaido, recreating snow-covered wooden houses. The rustic wooden panels, Japanese-style sliding doors, and white curtains create a warm, cozy feeling. Artificial snow covers the roof and yard, evoking winter in the Japanese mountain towns.

Below, a layer of fine white sand is spread evenly to increase the snow-covered effect, making the overall picture more vivid and realistic.

Two large artificial snow machines use a temporary foaming solution and spray in multiple directions, so that customers standing in almost any position will get snow. Each spray lasts 10 minutes, and the snow layer is quite thick; during peak hours, there are dozens of customers waiting to experience it.

Angle and context

The front area is decorated like a miniature Japanese village, which is where the longest queues are. Inside, a corner is set up as a cozy Christmas dining table with a red and beige tablecloth, white dishes, candles and a glass vase with pine branches; a plate of pine cones creates a festive highlight.

The restaurant has many spaces with different styles for customers to choose from; there is a photo booth corner for taking photos immediately. The water music stage and swimming pool in the center are also brightly decorated.

Guest experience

Nguyen Khanh Huyen, 19, traveled about 20 km from Dong Anh, spending about an hour to take photos with artificial snow. She prepared her outfit for about three hours; the new outfit she bought cost 400,000 VND. Huyen commented that the space was large, with many beautiful angles, the amount of snow outside was thicker and the coverage was wider than what she saw online.
Ha Anh, who lives in Vinh Hung (Hoang Mai), said the real-life scene is not exactly like the online photos, but it is still wide, beautiful, and has a Japanese style. She said: the artificial snow is quite thin, not an obstacle when taking pictures; when it melts, it makes people wet, but overall it is still quite beautiful.
Nguyen Thi Hong Ngoc, 22, spent more than two hours getting dressed and doing her makeup. Because of the large queue at the Japanese corner, she could only take a few photos, but she was still satisfied because her boyfriend took beautiful photos. Ngoc commented that the snow spray was not too unpleasant, just a little sticky from the soap.
