Chronicles of Sendai
Sendai, Japan's 'City of Trees', has a rich history dating back to 1600, when it was founded as a castle town by Date Masamune. The city's grid-like layout, established during the Edo period, still influences its modern-day architecture. Sendai's unique blend of traditional and modern elements is reflected in its many parks, museums, and historic buildings. The city's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its samurai heritage and its status as a hub for traditional Japanese cuisine, particularly its signature dish, gyutan (beef tongue).

Peak / festival surge
August is the peak month, as it coincides with the Obon Festival, a significant cultural event in Japan.
