Wakkanai Park (稚内公園, Wakkani Kōen) was established in Wakkanai, Hokkaidō, Japan in 1961. Covering some 45 hectares (110 acres), when combined with the adjacent Forest Park, there is total area of approximately 100 hectares (250 acres) for "citizens to relax".[2] Located on a hillside overlooking the Sōya Straits, within the park there are a number of memorials that, along with those of Cape Sōya, that to the Chihaku ferry near the North Breakwater Dome, the Northern Memorial Museum inside the park, and the Wakkanai Karafuto Museum, together help give Wakkanai the greatest density of "proxy" Karafuto lieux de mémoire in Hokkaidō.[3]
