Overview

Defining Nyorai Western Temple: A Spiritual Anchorage in a Tranquil Mountain Temple Located in a secluded mountain forest, Defining Nyorai Western Temple is a rare Jodo sect temple in Tohoku. Far from the hustle and bustle, the temple garden's scenery changes with the seasons, with cherry blossoms, autumn leaves, and snowscapes weaving together to create peaceful paintings. It is suitable for quiet walks to feel the inner peace and power of faith. The old street snacks next to the temple, especially the signature triangular fried tofu, are local delicacies that should not be missed. Akiu Great Falls: Magnificent Scenery of One of the 100 Best Waterfalls in Tohoku Akiu Great Falls, known as one of the "100 Best Waterfalls in Japan," has a 55-meter-high waterfall cascading down, creating a majestic yet tranquil feeling. Walking through it and letting the mist caress your face is a natural baptism that awakens all five senses. Akiu Village Agurie no Mori: A Local Market to Get Close to the Land "Akiu Village Agurie no Mori," which combines local agricultural products, handmade crafts, and light food cafes, is a great place to learn about Akiu culture. You can pick seasonal fruits and vegetables, taste local specialty desserts, or buy exquisite souvenirs to add an "Akiu flavor" to your trip. The area is managed by "Ocha no Igata," a well-known tea shop in Sendai, and offers Sendai's famous confection, Kikufuku. This soft and chewy mochi is wrapped in sweet bean paste and fresh cream, with matcha and edamame flavors being the most popular, and is a must-try dessert in Miyagi. Supermarket Saichi: A Popular Local Dessert Paradise "Saichi," a supermarket known as a treasure trove by locals, is famous for its limited-edition botamochi (ohagi) made daily. The sweet and delicate red bean paste wraps around handmade pounded glutinous rice, and the aroma of rice and beans are perfectly intertwined, simple but unforgettable. Many travelers come specifically for this classic local taste.
