Hokkaido Museum (北海道ほっかいどう博物館はくぶつかん, Hokkaidō Hakubutsukan) opened in Sapporo, Hokkaidō, Japan in 2015. Located within Nopporo Shinrin Kōen Prefectural Natural Park, the permanent exhibition is dedicated to the nature, history, and culture of Hokkaido. Also known as Mori-no-Charenga (もりのちゃれんが), the museum integrates and replaces the Historical Museum of Hokkaido (北海道ほっかいどう開拓かいたく記念きねんかん), which opened in 1971, and the Hokkaido Ainu Culture Research Centre (北海道ほっかいどうりつアイヌ民族みんぞく文化ぶんか研究けんきゅうセンター), which opened in 1994.[1][2][3]
