It is a great view and well worth seeing. There's actually a nice walking trail up Hakodate yama which is worth walking rather than just taking the ropeway. It's a pretty cool city too with lots of more recent Japanese history including a fair amount of foreign influences including some beautiful chruches. Goryokaku Fort is a beautiful star shaped fort in the city that saw the last battle in the Boshin War seeing the last of the shogunate fall to imperial forces. It is also the city where I own a bar
