Although Sendai City is the largest metropolis in the Tohoku region it is also known as the 'City of Trees' due to its abundance of beautiful nature in and around the city. Just a short subway ride from the centre of the city will take you to Mt. Aobayama park, the perfect location for some 'forest bathing' as you trek through the lush greenery in summer, beautiful Autumn colours or even snowy winter landscape. Before heading out on your morning trek, pick up a delicious and healthy breakfast from the market stalls of Sendai's 'Asaichi' morning market!
