The suburbs are famous for their beautiful natural scenery throughout the country, including one of Japan's three major hot springs, such as Qiubao Hot Springs and Zuohe Hot Springs, as well as three famous tourist attractions in Japan, such as Matsushima, Tibet Kingdom Park and Shrine. There are also golf courses, ski resorts and other facilities, which are crowded with tourists who come for sports activities and tourism all year round.
There are famous hot springs in the scenic spots facing the Pacific Ocean and inland (mountains) on the outskirts of Sendai City. Sendai has also been a prosperous area since ancient times, and you can see precious historical buildings.
Matsushima
Matsushima is one of the three major scenic spots in Japan, with 260 islands floating on Matsushima Bay. Together with Iwashima in Hiroshima and Tianqiao in Kyoto, it is known as one of the three major scenic spots in Japan. There is an endless stream of domestic and foreign tourists all year round. Traveling around the island by sightseeing boat is proud.
Songdao has been widely praised by many poets and writers since ancient times. Three hundred and fifty years ago, Matsushima was praised as one of the three scenic spots in Japan by Lin Chunzhai, a Confucian scholar of the Edo shogunate.
You can also enjoy the waves and magnificent scenery of the Pacific Ocean. Matsushima is located in Miyagi Prefecture, which can also be regarded as the surrounding city of Sendai. This is a place full of historical sites and historical atmosphere. Due to the crustal changes in the past, there are more than 260 islands here, plus Ziming Canyon, which is not only magnificent in mountain, but also natural hot springs emerge one after another, becoming one of the hot spring resorts. During the day, the island lies on the blue harbor and the sun is shining. At dusk, it becomes picturesque again in an instant. In February, there is an oyster festival in Songdo, and in August, there is a Lantern Festival. 10, there is a tea party in the garden, which makes the charm of Songdo even more brilliant. Gaosen is one of the four scenic spots in Songdo, which is famous for its spectacular peaks. There are four scenic spots in the Song Dynasty, including the spectacular Gaosen, the majestic Duowenshan, the secluded valley and the beautiful floating mountain.
The great Gaosen Peak is very spectacular and located in the center of Miyado Island. From the top of the mountain, you can see the majestic and steep streams and the beautiful Songdao Bay. The whole island group is located on Songdao Bay, like a super courtyard full of boxes, which is a spectacle.
Duowenshan Daiqi cliff in the south of Songdao Bay and the north of Qibin Town has magnificent scenery. You can enjoy the waves of the Pacific Ocean and its magnificent scenery, as well as the large and small ships entering and leaving Yanfu Port. This is a truly amazing and beautiful scenery.
If you look at the mouth of Song Dao Bay from Guan Shuang, it is like a fan spreading out on the sea, so it is called Fan Valley, which contains quiet beauty and is called secluded view. The tea pavilion on the top of Fan Gu Mountain is a good place to rest and enjoy the scenery.
Toyama in Song Dao is depicted as a beautiful landscape. On the top of the mountain, there is a Daiyoji covered with fir and pine trees, which allows visitors to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery of Song Dao and enjoy the quiet joy. It is said that Emperor Meiji had the honor to visit this mountain, which was tantamount to stamping the royal recommendation decree.
There are many routes for sightseeing boats to choose from, such as the Wangrenmaru Line, which runs every half hour and costs 4,000 yen. Fupu Bridge, which is connected with the coast of Matsushima, takes people directly to Fupu Island. Matsushima is one of the three major scenic spots in Japan (the overpass between Matsushima and Kyoto Prefecture, and Miyajima in Hiroshima Prefecture, also known as the three major scenic spots in Japan), which is full of wonders. It is necessary to go to Yousong Island by boat. You can go to Yanfucheng by boat at Song Dao Bay Pier, which takes about an hour.
Besides seeing grotesque islands dotted in Song Dao Bay along the way, you can also visit Salt Pot City, which is famous for its salt production. On your return trip, you can take the Shixian Line train back to Song Dao, so that you won't repeat the journey.
Many small islands in Song Dao Bay are not as magnificent as the stalactite caves in Guilin Mountain, and their areas are too small for tourists to set foot on. The tiny pine trees densely planted on the island look like lifelike bonsai from a distance, which is typical of other types. It is not ridiculous from a distance, but it is not an artificial bonsai, but a natural bonsai twin island, only about a foot apart.
For example, the twin islands, one big and one small, big oval and small round, wander quietly on the bay, only about a foot apart, as if gazing at each other and being affectionate. In fact, you don't need to cruise on the river. You can see Gemini Island from Xiongdao, which is connected with the coast of Song Dao by a bridge across the moon.
The Fupu Bridge connecting the coast of Song Dao is a vermilion long bridge, which takes people directly to Fupu Island. There are many white waterfowl on the island, and the surrounding scenery is elegant, so it is quiet to walk on it.
Of course, the cruise river can see the most landscapes. Look! This island stands tall in Song Dao Bay, and its posture is like a lion. Look! In this special shape of golden island, the ivory rocks on the island have been eroded into several holes, so big that a boat can pass through them. The pine trees on the island are dense, green and white, and the blue bay water, coupled with the transparency of the holes, is extremely ethereal.
As the name implies, there is also a Penglai Island. The area of the island is relatively large, and the grotesque rocks make you feel at ease. You can suck the wind and drink the dew without being contaminated with fireworks. Of course, it is the most suitable place for immortals to live.
In short, there are countless strange islands in Song Dao Bay, some shaped like jackals, some like seagulls, and even like the shoulder blades of cattle. The creativity of natural bonsai is of course beyond imagination. The most important island, Wang Ren Island, is located in the center of Song Dao Bay, overlooking the whole bay. The island has been eroded by natural waves for thousands of years. The upper and lower parts are hard and clean slate, and the middle part is ordinary rock, which gradually narrows from bottom to top, showing a strange appearance. It has eyes and mouth, and it also has the grace of a noble benevolent. It's like adding a crown to it, called benevolent king, which is very appropriate.
Most interested in
Established on 1604. Magnificent and colorful halls (places where Buddha statues are placed) and libraries (mainly temples' kitchens) are designated as national treasures.
The most dry temple is the No.1 Temple in Northeast China, which inherits the architectural style of Taoshan, Bordet Temple in Data Masamune. Its predecessor was Enbukuji, which was founded in 828 by Ren Yuan, a master of Cijue Temple. The present building is 1609, which was built by Data Masamune, the Lord of Sendai, in four years. At this time, it was renamed drunk and sweet. At the time of construction, it is said that 130 skilled craftsmen gathered from all over the country, and the building materials were taken from Kumano Mountain. 1609 designated the main hall with the structure of "entering the mother's mansion", the Tang-style building "Yucheng Gate" attached to the main hall, and the library gallery engraved with exquisite vine patterns and elbow wood carvings as national treasures, and the Yucheng Gate and the Middle Gate as important cultural heritages. There is a magnificent Galand in the temple, and its Tang-style doors and railings, partitions and niches are all beautifully painted and carved. The shrine across the mountain gate to the main hall is surrounded by tall fir forests, full of silence and solemnity, which makes people forget the noise.
Wu lobby
A temple symbolizing Matsushima was built on a floating island in Matsushima Bay. (a building dedicated to Buddha statues)
Wudian is a Buddhist temple, built on an island near the coast of Honshu and connected with Honshu by a red bridge.
Bishamondo was originally built by Malu Sakamoto during his expedition to Austria in 807, and the present building was rebuilt by Data Masamune on 1604. Because it is the oldest Taoshan building in Northeast China, it has been designated as an important cultural heritage. There are five statues of the Great Sage Harraca Ranasa, the Oriental Sage III, the Western Weeds, the Southern Army Tea and the Northern King Kong Hag in the hall, which are open to the public every 33 years.
The blue sea and the landscape around the five halls composed of many islands are the representative scenic spots in Song Dao.
Site of Sendai city
The seat of Sendai City, also known as Julia City. The cliffs in the east and south form a natural fortress. Nowadays, stone walls and stone towers (battlements, spaces set on gates and walls for checking enemies and shooting) remind people of the past. The site of Sendai City has been transformed into a park, which is also a good place to overlook the urban landscape.
Data Masamune (1567- 1636) is a famous cyclops in northeast Japan, who once swept Aoyu. 159 1 year, ordered by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, moved from Chumaize to Sendai New Town, which was built in 1600 and took Yuzao County as its residence.
The city of Sendai was destroyed after the Meiji Restoration, but Dashumen and Cape Wang Lou were preserved. Unfortunately, they were all bombed by air strikes in 1945. Today, the ruins in the center of the castle include the National Defense Shrine, the abandoned city moon monument with late green dirt wells, the Shimazaki Tōson Poetry Monument, the Zhao Zhong Monument and the bronze statue of Data Masamune riding a horse.
The bronze statue of Data Masamune riding in the remains of Sendai City is very spectacular. In fact, the most striking relic of Sendai City is the bronze statue of Data Masamune on horseback. The development of Sendai is largely due to the foundation laid for Sendai by this one-eyed hero. From the majestic charm of horseback riding, we can probably feel Data Masamune's ambition to dominate the world.
At that time, Sendai City was built with the natural barrier of Ye Qing Mountain, which was as high as 132 meters, and was also called Julia City. Unfortunately, Sendai City is no longer a hero, leaving only some ruins and some gates. These ruins, together with the rebuilt towers, may make people miss the days when we lived in Sendai.
Today, the former site of Sendai City has become the Yeqingshan Park in full of green, where citizens can rest and play. There is a Julia City Information Exhibition Hall in the park, and visitors can enjoy the copy of Sendai City by computer drawing. The 300-meter-wide screen shows Taoshan architecture and the magnificent 620,000-stone residential city. With the collection of Data Masamune's relics and letters in the museum, we can probably get a glimpse of the inner world of Cyclops.
Qiubao Waterfall
A waterfall with a width of 6 meters and a drop of 55 meters. Early summer when green leaves germinate and autumn when red leaves are fully dyed are the best seasons. It is one of the scenic spots designated by the state.
Guanlan pavilion
Mission Hills Pavilion is adjacent to Matsushima Museum and located at the top of Yueshuiqi Mountain, which is well worth stopping. Guanlan Pavilion was originally a teahouse in Taoshan City, Fujian Province, which was received by Data Masamune from Toyotomi Hideyoshi during the Luwen period. Later, the second generation of princes moved from Edo to this place intact, and instead enjoyed the cool and the moon. The name of Guanlan Pavilion is named after the fifth-generation warlord Yoshimura.
I don't know if the word "Guanlan" in Guanlan Pavilion is taken from Mencius: if you have the ability to look at water, you must look at it. Zhuangke not only enjoys the cool moon in the pavilion, but also the ripples in Song Dao Bay are impressive. Now there is a 300-Dan matcha reception in Guanlan.
Matcha originated in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and tea style prevailed in Jingshan Temple in Yuhang, Zhejiang Province, which was called a tea banquet. The tea used is steamed, ground, baked, dried and ground, which is today's matcha. At that time, the Japanese sent envoys of the Tang Dynasty to China to study China culture, and Buddhist monk Rong went to Jingshan Temple to study Buddhism. After returning home, he spread the tea banquet and matcha method of Jingshan Temple to Japan. Today's Japanese tea ceremony focuses on cultivating the mind, learning etiquette, and has its own rules for building tea and drinking tea. Matcha is the top tea used. To me, matcha seems to be the essence of green tea, which is expresso and refreshing. After drinking tea, take a closer look at Guanlan Pavilion. At that time, there were two royal rooms for the reception of the Lord and his guests, which were simple and lively and very rich in Taoshan architectural art characteristics. It is very beautiful to see the gold foil Cai Feng screen in the room. The smooth door is painted with colorful pictures of trees, flowers and streams, which is the legacy of the famous painter Kanoyamare. There is a horizontal plaque on the color map with the words rainy, sunny and sunny written in Yoshimura's ink. There is no doubt that this is a classic poem by Su Dongpo:
The water is bright and sunny, and the mountains are cloudy and rainy. If there are more dead beauties in the West Lake, C+ is so appropriate.
This is one of the evidences that Japanese people admire China culture. In addition to the wonderful rain and sunny weather, it is more reminiscent of Xie Juezai's poem "West Lake Poem":
The lake is full of trees and grass, and yachts crawl in the late Ming Dynasty. Standing in the right place is like looking at the right place. Only in this way can you know that you are painting.
This poem is a metaphor for the scenery around Guanlan Pavilion, which is more appropriate.
Sendai museum
The museum introduces the history of Sendai centering on the historical and cultural heritage of Yida people. There are about 75,000 national treasures and important cultural properties here. There are about 1200 pieces on display at any time.
Drunk holden
Located on a mountain called Jingfeng, it is a temple dedicated to Data Masamune. The temple was built by the loyal emperor of the second generation, with luxurious style and won the reputation of sunshine in Northeast China. In the past, Data Masamune visited this place to hear the first crow of birds. Before he died, he made his last wish to build a temple here and bury himself in it.
Through the straight Chinese fir forest hall, you can reach the most Horton where Ida is buried. In addition to the political Sect, the remains of the loyal Sect of the second generation and the outline Sect of the third generation are also enshrined in the Ganxian Hall and Yiqing Hall of the temple respectively, becoming the mourning halls of the three masters. The temple is also a building of Taoshan era, with a magnificent appearance. It was once designated as a national treasure cultural property. Unfortunately, it was burned in the war of 1945. Today, temples, Nirvana Gate and Imperial Palace (Archives) were rebuilt in 1979, costing 800 million yen.
In the process of rebuilding the temple, archaeologists excavated the remains of three lords and their funerary objects, including knives, painted stationery boxes, European gold brooches and jewelry boxes, which were beautifully made. There are movies about the process of robbing tombs and investigating antiquities in the archives, and several bronze statues based on the skulls of Zong Zheng, Zhongzong and Gangzong are displayed, which are worth seeing.
Luxun monument
One of the reasons why China people know about Sendai, Japan, is probably because Lu Xun studied medicine in Sendai Medical College when he was studying in Japan, that is,1autumn of 904 to1spring of 906. Xu Shoushang's Chronicle of Lu Xun records that 1904, Lu Xun was 24 years old. On the first day of June, my grandfather introduced Fugong, and in August, I went to Sendai Medical College. 1906, Lu Xun was 26 years old. In June, he went home to marry Ms. Zhu. In the same month, I went to Tokyo, Japan to study literature and stopped studying medicine.
Why did Lu Xun abandon medicine and join literature? This has been mentioned in his autobiography:
I have made up my mind to study medicine. One of the reasons is that I do know that new medicine is of great help to Japan's reform. So I entered Sendai Medical College and studied for two years. It was the Sino-Japanese War, and I happened to see a Japanese in the movie because.
Being a detective will get beheaded, so I don't think it's useful to cure several people in China. There should be a broader movement. ...
In addition, he made it more clear in the preface to Scream, but he didn't mention Sendai, only that it was a rural medical college in Japan. He also wrote in the book:
I suddenly saw a lot of China people I haven't seen for a long time in the photos. One is tied in the middle, and there are many people standing around, all of whom are physically strong and numb. According to the explanation, the kidnapped person is a military detective who works for Russia, and will soon be beheaded by the Japanese army, surrounded by people who come to enjoy this grand performance.
This film made Lu Xun make a major decision: it is better to change people's mental outlook than to save people's health. Those who have a little research on Lu Xun must be familiar with Lu Xun's confession: from that time on, I felt that medicine was not an urgent matter, and all stupid and weak citizens, no matter how healthy and strong, could only be meaningless propaganda materials and spectators, so they didn't have to think that they had died unfortunately.
That was nearly a hundred years ago. Now, in Sendai, you can still find Lu Xun's remains. There is a well-preserved former residence of Lu Xun. In the back garden of Sendai Museum, there is the Lu Xun Monument erected by Guo Moruo and the pine and cypress planted by Ms. Xu Guangping herself. It is also the only place in Sendai where you can take photos with Lu Xun. Take a tour bus to see the scenic spots in Sendai, and the place where you get off the bus the most is the ruins of Sendai City. Sendai City, also known as Julia City, is built at the foot of Yeqing Mountain. The Japanese battery there has its own characteristics, so it is no wonder that it is most popular with tourists. Secondly, many people visit the spiritual home of their ancestors in Sendai, Data Masamune.
As for the Drunken Fire Temple on Jingfeng Mountain, it is a temple dedicated to Data Masamune. The temple was built by the second generation of loyal princes, with luxurious style and won the reputation of "sunshine in the northeast"
Through the straight Chinese fir forest hall, you can reach the most Horton where Ida is buried. Apart from political factions, the temples, Nirvana Gate and Imperial Confederacy we see today were all rebuilt in 1979.
Every year, on that day, offerings and bamboos are placed in the yard, and then words of longing for ingenuity are written on colorful notes, and then the notes are tied to the branches of bamboos to make wishes to the stars in the sky. At the same time, colorful hydrangeas such as "avoiding plague", "thriving business", "abundant crops" and "healthy longevity" hung high in the downtown area, forming a representative landscape of the city in summer. take off one's shoes
In Japan, when in Rome, do as the Romans do, whether entering a hotel room, visiting a Japanese home, or entering a conference room or office. In short, as long as you enter the house, you have to change your slippers, sometimes twice. The custom of changing slippers is inviolable in Japan. Don't forget to take off your shoes before entering the house.
take an umbrella (with sb)
Take an umbrella when you go out. Japan has a maritime climate, with uncertain weather. Take an umbrella and get ready. Take a folding umbrella when traveling, and it is best to take a gentleman's umbrella when traveling or visiting relatives. Because in Japan, most shops and even private houses have an umbrella basket in front of them. A long umbrella can stand in the basket, but a folding umbrella can't be put in the basket.
No tipping is required.
Japan, like many Asian countries, has no habit of tipping. Because the service charge of 10%- 15% has been added to the bills of hotels and restaurants. If the taxi has no special service, there is no need to tip. As for spending in beauty salons, barbershops, bars and nightclubs, there is no need to tip.
Drink tap water
Tap water in Japan can be drunk directly. There are running water nozzles in stations and large public places. Both hotels and restaurants have mineral water for guests to drink.
Dianqi tea ceremony
You don't need to bring a mobile phone to Japan. Because the standards are different, it is impossible to use your own mobile phone there. In addition, the voltage in Japan is 1 10 volts (mainly two-pin flat plugs), so battery chargers such as cameras and video recorders cannot be used unless they are compatible with 1 10-240 volts.
Buying skills
The quality of small household appliances in Japanese duty-free shops is very good and the price is cheap. It is generous and affordable to take some home as gifts for relatives and friends. It is not cost-effective to buy small boutique toys, clothes and shoes. Most of them are made in China, and they are surprisingly expensive. In addition, Japan's film and camera lithium battery are also more expensive than domestic ones, so you can take more abroad. Department stores and shops in Japan close around 7 pm (only a few are open until 9 pm), so it is almost impossible to go shopping at night.
Subway advantage
If you want to go shopping by yourself in Japan, you'd better take the subway because it's the cheapest. The subway traffic in Japan is very developed, the subway lines are as dense as cobwebs, and the subway stations go directly to the bottom of high-rise buildings, so there is a lot of choice. Japan's consumption is very high, so taking a taxi is of course expensive. If you pay for it yourself, go out and take the subway. In addition, if you travel and stay in a hotel, you can't speak Japanese. If you go out by yourself, you'd better take a business card of the hotel, so that in case you get lost, you can get a ride back.
exchange currencies
In Japan, money must be exchanged at foreign exchange banks or other legal money exchange offices. In addition, you must show your passport. However, the Japanese bank exchange business only takes place between 9 am and 3 pm. In addition, banks are closed all day on Saturdays, Sundays and major holidays. So money can only be exchanged in restaurants, but it is a little more expensive than bank exchange.
make a telephone call
Red and pink phones: suitable for domestic calls in Japan, only ten yen coins (ten dollars and three cents) are accepted. Green and gold telephones: You can make international calls and accept calling cards or coins of 10 or 100 yen. Of course, it's best to buy an IP phone card.
Self-provided articles
There are few toothbrushes and toothpaste in Japanese hotel rooms, so it is best to bring your own slippers. It is difficult to eat on time during the trip. Because the local living index in Japan is relatively high, it is best to bring some snacks so that you can have something to eat when you are hungry. If you go in spring, you'd better bring a mask. If it snows in winter, you should also bring sunglasses and a hat. Do not wear high heels. There are many hot springs in Japan. If you want to enjoy them, you'd better bring your own things.
