定禅寺通

Jozenji-dori Avenue is a well-known street in Sendai. Its claim to fame lies in the enchanting winter illustrations that adorn the area during the Christmas season. However, my recent visit in February revealed a different side of this street. The trees, devoid of leaves, painted a rather ordinary picture. It’s safe to say that during this period, Jozenji-dori Avenue is just like any other street. If you’re planning a visit, I recommend timing it around Christmas to experience its true magic.

So, we've all seen trees. And we've all seen trees near intersections. But this specific area has a long strip of trees that extend way high, and looks like something out of a fantasy or anime. And that's cool.

Great place to walk through, or sit and have a snack.

A city with this tree canopy walkway is very luxurious. Envy Sendai people!

Winter illustration is great every here. 🌟🌟
