Sendai... the City of Trees, Date Masamune, Gyutan and Zunda! Sendai is located in Miyagi Prefecture and it is the biggest city in the Tohoku Region (Northeast Japan) with roughly 1 million citizens. I spent one year in Sendai as an exchange student at Tohoku University and let me guide you to my favorite places in Sendai!
