Jozenji-dori Avenue, Tohoku, Japan


4.0 (470 reviews) Spent Ranking #2 in Miyagi Prefecture Points of Interest & Landmarks

Only lights up during winter

Went at night with the wife. We were disappointed to find the trees not lit up, apparently that only happens in winter. Still, it was a nice stroll, plenty of tall leafy trees, clean broad sidewalks and balmy weather. Plus, it was quiet when we went, a refreshing change from the tourist choked main streets of Osaka and Kyoto. A few nice restaurants too, although we couldn't find anything with an English menu (for more food options and other "action", one should head to Kokobun-Cho). It's almost impossible to visit a small city like Sendai and not walk down the main street. But Jozenji Dori is worth it, especially at night.

    No entry at night during light-up
    The light-up looked really beautiful but they blocked both entrances in the excuses of covid-19. However, people gathered at both ends to enjoy and take photos of the lights like crazy. 1. It's more infectious than letting people in. 2. It's more dangerous to run into a car accident since the light-up is in the middle of the street.

    Ordinary Street in the city of Trees
    Nothing special about this street. But area As a city of trees, lots of other streets look just like Jozenji-dori Avenue. Most of the street in this city lined up with trees. Sendai as whole is a beautiful city to stroll around. It worth to stop over here on if you are in Tohoku area.
