Miyagi Hidden Gems

Puerta del Tohoku, con Sendai como centro. La bahía de Matsushima, con 260 islas, es uno de los tres paisajes más bellos de Japón. El mausoleo dorado Zuihoden, la lengua de res a la brasa (gyutan) y la aldea de zorros de Zao completan un punto de partida ideal para recorrer el noreste.

11 spots

La puerta de entrada a Tohoku: la ciudad samurái de Sendai, bahías ricas en ostras y las islas cubiertas de pinos de Matsushima, una de las tres vistas clásicas de Japón.
