Address: Akanuma Hitsugasawa, Rifu-cho, Miyagi-gun, Miyagi Prefecture, 981-0101 Content: I went to Matsushima and Sendai on a trip to Miyagi!! I had always wanted to go to Umanose, so I was happy to be able to go! 😸 There were lots of pine trees, the sea was beautiful, and it was the best!! There is Entsuin Temple in Matsushima, and the historic building was a masterpiece! Please be sure to visit🕊 #Breathtaking views #Recommended for dates #Remote islands

A brand-new café that opened in 2024. The interior, previously a restaurant, is quite spacious for a café. Another perk is the direct parking connection to Aeon Mall. I visited around 3 PM on a weekday, and there were empty seats, making the atmosphere very relaxed and comfortable. The interior is fully Hawaiian-themed! Surfboards, colorful paintings, and various trinkets are displayed, creating an uplifting vibe. Every corner is Instagram-worthy. I ordered the most popular item, the Strawberry & Banana Whipped Pancakes. The dish comes with four pancakes, which was just the right amount for two women. The generous whipped cream wasn’t overly sweet, and the pancakes had a slight saltiness that balanced the flavors perfectly. You can also drizzle crushed coffee beans and honey from the table. The strawberries and bananas were sweet and delicious. I also ordered coffee and café latte, which were slightly bitter, so I added whipped cream to them. The menu also includes dishes like Loco Moco and burgers, which looked appetizing. I plan to try them next time. Kona's Coffee Rifu Store Address: 100-1 Hachiman Saki Mae, Rifu, Miyagi District, Miyagi Prefecture (Adjacent to Aeon Mall Shin-Rifu North Wing) Access: About a 14-minute walk from JR Tohoku Main Line Shin-Rifu Station.

#0yentripFebruary2025 I had a great time with my father. Tour trips are the best! This Sekisui Heim Super Arena is often used for live performances, but be careful as it is located in a remote area. I think the best way to get from Sendai Station to this place is by train and taxi. If the performance starts after 5pm, you probably won't be able to catch the last Shinkansen train, so I recommend planning an overnight stay or taking an overnight bus. There is only one convenience store nearby, and it is a residential area with nothing else, so it's a good idea to get everything you need before entering the venue.

📍Umanose Umanose, Hitsugazawa, Akanuma, Rifu-cho, Miyagi-gun, Miyagi Prefecture 《Access》 About 23 minutes on foot from the exit of Rikuzen-Hamada Station About 43 minutes on foot from the exit of Matsushima Kaigan Station Parking🅿️ Available for about 5 cars ✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲✲ ▶️Umanose, a natural pier jutting out from the land into the sea Erosion by waves over the years has created a shape resembling a horse's back... ▶️About 5 minutes on foot from the parking lot to Umanose There is a space where several cars can be parked at the entrance to the walkway leading to Umanose. From there, go down the steep slope (steps) and walk through the pine forest to reach the base of Umanose. Umanose is not off-limits, so you can walk all the way to the end. The path is narrow and there are no handrails. The snow made it hard to walk, so I took the photo at the base. #Miyagi #Umanose #MiyagiTourism #MiyagiTouristSightseeing #0YenTravelJanuary2025

Exploring the incredible natural beauty around Sendai and Sapporo, finding moments of serenity. 1. Matsushima - accessible by subway from Sendai, takes around 40 mins - eat 🦪 by the sea, explore the islands connected by bridge by foot, or take a boat to see the wider area. Walk further along the coast away from the main area to find quieter scenic spots like this one! 2. Yamadera, Yamagata - accessible by train from Sendai, around 60 mins. - the hike to the temple takes around an hour, and is well-maintained steps the entire way, with plenty to look at along the way - recommend the small restaurant by the station after the hike (note that it closes at 2 or 3!), our meals were delicious! 3. Noboribetsu - take the train from Sapporo, about an hour and a half. - the trail paths are short and very accessible to all, so don’t expect to hike for the full day! - relax in an onsen and enjoy the #hotsprings ! #landscapes #japantrip #nature #hiking #outdooradventures #100waysoftravel

Umanose is located about an hour's drive from Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture. This is a pier-like place formed by land naturally jutting out into the sea. In the clear winter sky, you can leisurely watch the sun sink into the distant horizon. There are no safety fences and it is made only of earth and plants, so it is a little dangerous, but considering the beautiful scenery, we are grateful to be able to see it as it is. Miyagi Prefecture has many attractive tourist spots, and this is one of them. #besttrip2023 #furitabi

The venue was nice and it was easy to see the stage. I had purchased a parking lot ticket a in advance, but I just parked without looking at the parking lot guide. It took me an hour to get back on the public road. I wish they could have guided me a little better. It's on top of a mountain and there are no convenience stores nearby, so you have to buy food and drinks in advance.

Very beautiful place with a nice view over the bay. We took the train from Sendai Station to Rikuzen-Hamada Station, which takes about 35 minutes. We then walked the rest branching off of the big road next to the station as soon as we could. The walk through the forest is very nice, the trees provided very needed shadow on this hot summer day. There is a little bit of parking at the entrance, so if you have a car, you can drive very close. The last bit is a little hike down to the water and then across the natural bridge.

It was a great experience! A great nature that you’ll enjoy with your family and friends! The story was When Date Masamune, the founder of the Sendai clan, held a moon-viewing party on this island, his vassals heard him playfully say, "If you can see as far as the eye can see, you won't have to worry about the castle falling." It is said that the island came to be called at least the island of the island and the island of the castle.

Do you know this place? ☺️🌷 Today, I'd like to introduce you to a hidden spot in Matsushima🔖 📍Rifu's Horseback Matsushima is popular with tourists as one of the three most scenic spots in Japan, but there is actually a hidden spot that is not well known by tourists yet🌷 That's "Rifu's Horseback"🐎 It's in Omote Matsushima, but you can get there in about 10 minutes by car from Matsushima Kaigan Station, the entrance to Matsushima tourism! Horseback is a natural pier that has become like this due to erosion by waves over the years! 🥸 It's called "Horseback" because it looks like a horse's back☀️ However, the footing is quite bad from the parking lot to here, so be careful📖 I recommend wearing comfortable shoes☺️🌸 ▽ Use this as a reference for your weekend trip🌷🌷🌷 I've posted other recommended spots too! 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 📍Rifu's Horseback ・Address Akanuma Hitsugazawa, Rifu-cho, Miyagi-gun, Miyagi Prefecture 981-0101 ・Access 【🚃】About 20 minutes walk from JR Senseki Line "Rikuzen-Hamada Station" 【🚗】About 10 minutes by car from JR Senseki Line "Matsushima-Kaigan Station" ・Parking Available (looks like a roundabout) 〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 #Miyagi #Miyagi Trip #Miyagi Sightseeing #Matsushima #Matsushima Sightseeing #Horseback #Sightseeing
