Sankyo Soko
This earthen storage for rice is in Sakata, once a lively port city where rice was shipped out. Sakai Family, the former domain lord, built 14 storehouses in 1893. 12 of them are standing today. 9 of the 12 were still used up until the end of 2022 to store 10,800 tons of rice, designated in 2021 as a national historic site.
They've turned the old rice storehouses into restaurants, craft shops, and a museum. It's also famous because of the Asadora TV drama.

Higashine Tourism Orchard
Higashine City produces abundant fruits such as cherries and apples. Cherries are their top produce at 3,600 tons a year, greater than any other city in Japan. The main cherry species, Sato Nishiki, was created in Higashine. Before JR Sakurambo-Higashine Station, there is a bronze statue of Eisuke Sato in honor of his creation of Sato Nishiki.
Higashine City produces the most cherries in all of Japan. Cherry season runs from April to July, then you get white peaches and grapes from August to October, and after that it's apple season. There's always fresh fruit to try here!

Osaki Hachimangu Shrine
Osaki Hachimangu Shrine was relocated to the northwest (the position of dog and boar) by the order of Date Masamune at the time of the construction of Sendai Castle. Since then, the shrine has been revered as the general guardian of Sendai, especially as a guardian deity for those born in the year of the dog or the year of the boar.
There are lots of interesting buildings to see within the Hachimangu Shrine grounds. I definitely recommend visiting if you're traveling to Sendai.
