Walking Tour of Sendai Japan 

To see Sendai with my own eyes will truly bless my heart and soul.

I lived in Sendai from 1976 to 1977 as a foreign exchange student. The city and its people were fabulous--especially the students who went to Ikuei High School and most importantly my host parents Kazuo and Yoshiko Suda.

I love your walking tours, Shinichi. There's no better way to learn about an area. The covered arcades always amaze me. They're so open and airy--the feeling of being outdoors but protected from bad weather. I also love the more traditional side streets. Without you, I'd never see these places. Thank you!

Shinichi, thanks for a tour of downtown Sendai!! Just some general info, AEON shopping center is all over Japan and asia. They are the 100th largest company in the world with 82 billion in revenues. Most of the items they sell are higher end, noit walmart stuff. Anyways, take care!!

My kind of shopping mall

Japan is beautiful.

I Love the side streets you show us. I think that's the original view of every town. Thank's for your Videos that are sometimes realy hard to so for you. And your Videos are allways perfekt. Stay Safe. 🙏🏼🥰

Love your videos. From 🇨🇦. Prob never get there. Bucket list I suppose. But so much to see in Japan. Thank you for showing me what is there. 🤗

I'm so glad you showed us around Sendai. As much as I love you and Satoshi there's someone else who means a great deal to me whose hometown is Sendai. Seeing the places he has maybe been recently or at least maybe at some point in the past has been a real treat. Of course I love all of your vids but this was extra special for me.

I love the long videos. There's so much to see. The fruit and vegetables look amazing, such fresh bright colours. Thank you for all the time and effort aswell as the expense that you put into making this all possible for us to enjoy and learn so much about Japan. I m so looking forward to bringing my son to see everything and do some exploring of our own

Mahalo for all beautiful places mahalo for taking us with you 😊

Wow what a awesome City a walking video thanks for sharing this video stay safe and take care 😘❤️

Yuzuru Hanyu is from Sendai. He has many international as well as Japanese fans so I am happy to see this video of Sendai! I love all your videos though! Thank you! You guys are great!

Yes, it is a great idea for shoppers and other pedestrians, to be protected from inclement weather, by the covered shopping arcades!!!😊😊😊

That is a beautiful JR station! Would love to travel there and see all the shops and food establishments. Wow! Thank You Shinichi san!

Love Sendai so much. I gonna go back to Sendai next year.

I love all the 迎春 (welcome spring) banners around the city. Reminds me of the connection to mainland Asia and Lunar New Year (春節).

Thanks for sharing. Sendai is such a nice city. Hope you will update it soon.

Good very good. Very detail presentation 😊

The small old building within the arcade reminds me of the movie Up lol

Great look at Sendai shops! I will be there in 3 weeks and now I know where to go! It was nice to find landmarks of shops to look for as you walked around. Thanks Shinichi-san!

Thank you for bringing back so many memories. I havent been to Sendai in 5 years, and I miss it. I went to Med School here.

Shinichi, your videos are very informative. You always express a sense of enthusiasm, and you always look for the best of everything you describe to us.

This place is incredible, store's galore and I can see why people like to shop in this city . Love the phone booths very nice touch and well kept. And the fish dog looks so delicious if you could make them that would be great .So glad you met up with your friend Michael, yes I do remember him as your camera man . You and Satoshi need to return to this amazing city hopefully soon . Thanks for the wonderful walk Shinichi Sendai City is amazing. 💛👍

Nice tour 🦋🦋🦋

Beautyful Sendai

Love your walking videos, not long at all, very fun

I miss japan My next visit will be more old little towns or villages am in love with traditional Japanese architectures culture🙌🏼🇯🇵

動画に出ていた廃ビルは、さくら野百貨店　仙台店跡地です。経営破綻により閉店しました。約70年もの歴史のある、仙台市民の思い出のデパートでした。2027年には新しくホテルが立つそうですよ〜 いつも動画をありがとうございます。🥰

That was such a huge shotengai. I bet you could find anything you most possibly need there. It's lovely that they planted trees inside to give it a pleasant feel. I love the music you picked for the end. Does it have a name?😊

Thank you for amazing video. Love when you show us a alking tour. ❤

I enjoyed this longer video so much. It’s nice being taken on a tour whilst I’m at my desk working. Thank you so much Shinichi, I did miss Satoshi though ❣️

Thank you for the lovely outsiders look at Sendai. I do have to admit you didn't take a gander at the Daikannon (or I missed a wee bit).

Hi Shinichi, Loved the Video . Thanks for showing us around the streets of Sendai. So much to see and do lots of shopping and places to eat , and the Arcades are massive 🤩. Enjoy listening to you talk as you show us around . Looking forward to more videos 😀👍

Next time you go to Sendai look up Chris Broad (Abroad in Japan).

I really enjoyed the tour of sendai, definitely on my bucket list of places to go!

This video was an incredible tour of the Sendai station area. We have our second trip to the city over the new year period this year, and you've just reminded me why Sendai is one of our favourite cities in Japan. Cannot wait till we're there again in about 6 weeks time!

Very interesting tour. Thank you! I sure don't know how you do all that walking. I wouldn't last one city block. I have noticed in this and some of your other videos that there is a good amount of signage in English. Do the Japanese learn English as a second language in school? Every place you have shown us looks so clean and well respected. Japan is a beautiful country. Thank you sharing with us.

Great job showing us Sendai ... I've never thought about visiting, but those little shopping alleys and all the great shops did get me thinking. Love your walking and talking as you share the city with us. Thanks, this helps as we wait to return to Japan.

Hey Shinichi, thanks for the trip down memory lane! I lived in Sendai for 3 years; I had an apartment just outside of the red light district, and I would walk from there, all the way along the covered shopping streets you walked through (Ichibancho and Chuo Dori) to the English school I worked at near Sendai Station! I used to meet my friends at 42:44 every Saturday night to go drinking in Kokubuncho! 🍻😁

Nice tour they do have lots there!!!! 😮

Great stroll around the area. Between you and Drew, you both are giving me great ideas on how to schedule my trip to Japan. 👍

I don’t see it as an arcade, to me it’s a street mall or a plaza, then they added a glass roof to protect shoppers from the weather. At one time, they were streets with cars.

"I just get distracted by food all the time." RELATABLE.

It reminds me of a mall only it is open to the outside so no air conditioning or heating.

Enjoyed 👍

You can buy boots with special ice gripper soles! 🇨🇦😊

Great intro thanks

Show us the snow mountain

When you feel safe to travel to the mainland US again I think you and Satoshi would love to visit my home state of Minnesota. rent a nice cabin in the woods, visit the largest shopping mall in the country, complete with full indoor amusement park, and visit the birthplace and museum of SPAM. could be a good weekend stop if you plan on being in the states for a couple weeks perhaps on a cross country road trip.

Aloha!

If you see Yuzuru please tell him i love him! ❤

Thought I was weird because I love grocery stores. Like them better than most malls. Can spend hours not dollars just seeing what people around me like.

Is Sendai Nuclear fallout safe ! fish / food water safe ??? Has it been deemed safe by independent authority ??

Is there an underground city in Sendai?

first, be helpful if u can show a map of japan or tokyo and show where is sendai vis a vis these more famous places. I hv NO IDEA where to place Sendai TQ

Is Japan handicapped friendly? By the way, I love your videos!!

Tag yourself: I’m all of the awkward pigeons evading the camera 👀 🐦

So much that Sendai has to offer But??????????????
