Sendai Castle Ruins (Aoba Castle)
Sendai Castle was built by order of the lord Date Masamune. Commonly called "Aoba Castle," it has been the center of the clan government for 270 years.
The park is pretty big, so you need to take your time exploring. If the weather's nice, you can get a great view of all of Sendai.
Mogami Kyo Gorge
Mogami River is a prominent grade A river, counted as one of Japan’s Three Greatest Rapids. The middle area of it (From Furukuchi District in Tozawa Village to Kiyokawa District in Shonai Town) is a 15km-long scenic gorge called Mogami Gorge.
The river is really wide. While listening to the boatman sing, you can enjoy the autumn leaves on the mountains. Before you know it, the boat arrives at the shore and the ride is over.
Mt. Fuji
At a staggering 3,776 meters tall, Mt. Fuji is Japan’s tallest mountain and the pride of its two homes, Yamanashi and Shizuoka Prefectures. This famous peak is an iconic symbol of Japan.
There's a lot of trash on the mountain, probably left by tourists. It's a good thing it's only open for two months a year—if it were open all year, they might as well call it 'Trash Mountain.'
