Sendai

Few cities in Miyagi Prefecture have a history as closely tied to the castle town founded by Date Masamune as Sendai. The Hirose River runs through the city, while the Pacific coast lies to the east and wooded hills rise around its western districts. Sendai Castle was established on Aoba Hill in 1601; its former grounds remain a key symbol of the city and its powerful Date heritage. Nearby Zuihoden, the ornate mausoleum of Date Masamune, reflects the clan’s lasting influence. Each August, Sendai Tanabata Festival fills central streets with large handmade streamers.
