    When you visit Matsushima in Miyagi Prefecture, don't miss the charming Miyagi Prefecture Matsushima Rikyu! About a 5-minute walk from Matsushima-Kaigan Station, this new landmark, which opened in 2020, brings together food, shopping, activities, and beautiful scenery. You can stroll around the first floor and enjoy oysters and desserts, while the second floor offers workshops, a museum, and other activities. I especially recommend going up to the rooftop garden for panoramic views of Matsushima Bay and a relaxing time in the sea breeze. It's a great place to spend half a day or even a full day exploring at your own pace.

    Inside, there's an exhibition hall, an observation deck, and a garden. You can see all the islands in Matsushima Bay. On a nice day, the blue sky, white clouds, and green islands are so relaxing. The rooftop observation deck is perfect for photos, and the sea breeze feels amazing.
