Jozenjidori Street

Flow of the course

About this spot

Sendai's representative zelkova tree-lined street, where the lush green canopy creates a tunnel of shade that softens the summer sun. This street symbolizes Sendai's distinctive landscape as the 'City of Trees,' with sculptures and benches scattered along the way where you can rest and stroll leisurely. Close to the central shopping district, it naturally fits as part of the journey to the tanabata festival venue. Simply walking in the shade makes the temperature feel cooler, making it perfect for a refreshing break during your summer city walk.

Tips

On the way from Osaki Hachimangu Shrine by bus toward Sendai Station, you can easily stop by. Benches are scattered along the tree-lined street, making it easy to walk with breaks in between. The late afternoon sun is blocked by the trees, making it a relatively comfortable time to walk.

Best time to visit

Approximately 45 minutes. Late afternoon when the sun is softer is most comfortable for walking.
