Tohoku is a region you travel through slowly. The spots collected here are the ones we keep coming back to: castle ruins and temple gardens in Sendai, port towers and folk-performance halls in Akita, sake and whisky distilleries in Fukushima, farm greenhouses in Miyagi that stay warm all winter. Each entry notes what the place is known for, when it is worth visiting and how long a walk from the nearest station it really is, so you can slot it into a day without guesswork.
Most of these places are reachable by local train plus a short walk, which makes them easy to combine — a morning at a museum, an afternoon in a garden, an early evening back in the city for dinner. Seasons matter more than opening hours here: plum and cherry blossom in spring, greenery and festivals in summer, foliage in autumn, snow-quiet streets and strawberry greenhouses in winter.
