■ Day 2
Sightseeing in Matsushima✨
1. Shiogama Shrine
Visited before heading to Matsushima as it is a designated Important Cultural Property.
2. Matsushima Ferry
Took the Basho course operated by Marubun Matsushima Kisen from Shiogama to Matsushima! The ride takes about 40-50 minutes and goes quite close to the islands, making it great for photo opportunities! Additionally, booking in advance gets a 10% discount and various coupons usable at different shops and facilities!
3. Matsushima
In Matsushima, we toured the following spots:
- Godai-do
- Zuigan-ji
- Entsuin
- Kanrantei
4. Lunch at Matsushima Fish Market
- Oyster Burger (600 yen)
- Fried Oysters (500 yen)
- Tuna Negima Soup (300 yen)
- Grilled Oysters (500 yen)
5. Dinner at Tanyazenjiro
Had the "Man-naka Tan & Zenjiro Set Meal." The meat was more tender compared to what I had at Date's Gyutan Honpo the day before, and I highly recommend going to "Tanyazenjiro" if you're planning to visit!
■ Final Day (Day 3)
Relaxed in Sendai City!
1. Sendai Morning Market
The popular croquettes at "Saito's Side Dish Shop."
2. Ankoya
Famous for its square dorayaki, it's possible to make reservations in advance, so if you plan to buy, make sure to contact them! Otherwise, be prepared for a long wait!
3. Zunda Saryo
Zunda Shake
4. AER Observation Terrace 🌃
An observation terrace you can enter for free. Available from 10 AM to 8 PM! It's close to Sendai Station, so definitely check it out!
