Wakkanai Port Northern Breakwater Dome(designated as a Hokkaido Heritage in 2001)
This unusual dome-shaped breakwater which overlooks the Soya Gulf is a symbol of the northern wharf. It not only prevents high waves and strong wind from penetrating, but it is also the most interesting half-arch dome in the world. It is a 427m long arch-shaped dome of peristyle Gothic construction.
