Sapporo (札幌市 Sapporo-shi?, ) è una città giapponese di circa 1 970 000 abitanti, capoluogo della prefettura di Hokkaidō e quinta città per grandezza del Giappone. Fa parte della sottoprefettura di Ishikari, situata nella zona sud-occidentale dell'isola di Hokkaidō. Sapporo è nota fuori dal Giappone per aver ospitato le Olimpiadi Invernali del 1972, le prime tenutesi in Asia, e per il famoso Festival della neve che attira oltre 2 milioni di turisti da tutto il mondo. La città è anche conosciuta per le birrerie Sapporo, che prendono il nome dalla città stessa, e dai biscotti Shiroi Koibito, il classico souvenir acquistato da chi visita la città.
