Sendai cruise

cruise to sendai japan

A former feudal city


The largest city in the Tōhoku region, Sendai is a sprawling but pleasant place, with broad tree-lined avenues and a lively downtown district. The city’s castle ruins and associated history museum, and the ornate mausoleum of its revered founder, the daimyō Date Masamune, are worth a brief visit.
 
Though central Sendai had to be rebuilt after World War II, its streets follow the original grid pattern laid out by Masamune in the seventeenth century. The main downtown area, a high-rise district of offices, banks and shopping malls, lies on the east bank of the Hirose-gawa. Its principal thoroughfare, Aoba-dōri, runs west from the train station to the far side of the river, where the main historic sights are located. Roughly halfway along, it’s crossed by bustling Ichiban-chō, which together with the covered Chūō-dōri forms the heart of a bustling nightlife and shopping neighbourhood.
