Sendai is the capital city of Miyagi Prefecture and the largest city in the Tohoku region of Japan. Founded in 1600 by feudal lord Date Masamune, it is known as the "City of Trees" due to its many tree-lined streets and abundant green spaces.
The city seamlessly blends modern urban development with historical heritage, featuring landmarks such as the reconstructed Sendai Castle site and the Zuihoden Mausoleum, where Date Masamune is entombed. As a major cultural and educational center, Sendai hosts several universities and research institutions. The city has rebuilt and recovered admirably following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, maintaining its position as a vital hub for arts, culture, and commerce in northern Japan. Its museums and cultural institutions play an important role in preserving and showcasing both traditional Japanese culture and contemporary arts.
