About Sendai

Sendai, known as the "City of Trees," offers a variety of experiences that highlight its cultural heritage and natural beauty. One of the key attractions is the Zuihoden Mausoleum, which is the resting place of Date Masamune, the founder of Sendai. The intricate wooden architecture and serene surroundings provide insight into the region's history.

Another notable site is Sendai Castle, or Aoba Castle, which offers panoramic views of the city. Although much of the original structure is no longer standing, the ruins and the reconstructed keep give visitors a glimpse into the area's feudal past.

For those interested in cultural experiences, the Sendai Tanabata Matsuri, held in August, showcases vibrant decorations and traditional performances. This festival celebrates the meeting of two stars and is characterized by colorful streamers and festive events throughout the city.

In terms of cuisine, Sendai is famous for gyutan, or grilled beef tongue. Numerous restaurants specialize in this local delicacy, providing an authentic taste of the region's culinary offerings. Additionally, visitors can explore the Sendai Asaichi, or morning market, where fresh produce and local specialties can be sampled and purchased.

Nature enthusiasts can enjoy Mitsui Outlet Park Sendai for shopping and dining, or take a short trip to the surrounding areas, such as Matsushima Bay, known for its picturesque islands and considered one of Japan's three most scenic views. Here, visitors can partake in boat tours or simply relax by the water.

Lastly, the Jozenji-dori Avenue, lined with zelkova trees, is perfect for a leisurely stroll, especially during the winter months when the trees are illuminated with beautiful light displays. This blend of cultural, historical, and natural attractions makes Sendai a compelling destination for travelers seeking a comprehensive experience of Japan's Tohoku region.
