Great hike up to the observatory, views at the top showed the whole area. Note that there are two entrances of the trail, one near the history museum and one next to scenic cruise building. If you accidentally go to the wrong one on the way down, can walk along the seaside promenade back to your car.

This gorge + valley are so colourful in autumn. We drove there and it wasn't hard to get a parking spot. The whole valley was dotted with red, orange and yellow and very pretty. I found the autumn leaves here are more in red than other places in Tohoku Japan. (Most places we've been to are mostly yellow to orange in shade.) We hike down the valley and back up. It's really one of the highlights of our trip.

Absolutely gorgeous. The weather is very variable and changes quickly - the first day we went (parking at the main parking lot) had a sunny forecast but when we got there the entire mountain top was covered in thick fog and it was pouring rain so we couldn't see it at all. It was also very windy and approaching freezing in October. The next day we hiked over from the Zao Onsen Ropeway and the weather was perfect although still jacket weather. Very glad we made the second attempt because it's fantastic - the unreal color of the lake along with the alien landscape.

There is a place in the world where the Internet has manifested itself in physical form: Tashirojima. On this island, people believe that feeding cats will bring you good fortune and luck, and now the cat population outnumbers the human one 6 to 1. There is even a cat shrine you can visit.

As one of 日本三景，Matsushima is just 40 minutes from Sendai, taking JR Senseki Line to Matsushima Kaigan Station from JR Sendai station. Another great getaway from city life. Don’t miss it if you are in Tohoku region.
