If you find yourself with a little extra time and you don’t mind traveling 16 miles, check out Matsushima. This place boasts lots of things to keep you engaged. Among your first stops here ought to be Shiogama Fish Market, Zuigan-ji Temple and Date Masamune Historical Museum. The locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Shiogama, 19 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, let it be Shiogama Shrine. (But we’re also huge fans of Shiogama Fish Market and Zuigan-ji Temple.)
