Hagi no Tsuki

``Hagi no Tsuki'' is a famous Sendai confectionery made with plenty of original custard cream with a mellow and gentle flavor and wrapped in fluffy castella. This is a sweet that you would definitely want to take as a souvenir.

Zunda mochi

These bite-sized zunda mochi are made with the local flavor of Sendai, loved by Lord Masamune, into a modern-day confectionery. Since you can carry it around at room temperature, it is also recommended as a small souvenir.

Located only 90 minutes away from Tokyo, Miyagi Prefecture offers unique and diverse experiences. Sendai, the cosmopolitan capital of Miyagi, is populated with lush greenery and yokocho alleys, while to the west is the iconic crater lake of Mount Zao, and to the east lies Matsushima, known as one of the Three Most Scenic Places of Japan. Miyagi also provides direct access to all the other prefectures of the Tohoku region, a vast unexplored area full of nature and rich culinary traditions, completely different from typical tourist destinations of Japan.
