From the pedestrians' deck in front of Sendai Station, you can see Mt. Aobayama through the Zelkova tree lined Avenue. The area is crowded with banks and other office buidings which are all within walking distance. To the west lies Ichibancho Shopping Mall. This connects to the main street heading towards the site of Sendai Castle.
Hirose-dori Avenue
Hirose-dori Avenue is located between Aoba-dori and Jozenji- dori Avenue and the main street is lined with Ginkgo trees. Its junction with Ichibancho is the most convenient place to meet friends. Day and night, this area is always crowded.
Jozenji-dori Avenue
Jozenji-dori is a valley of buildings with a long strip of greenery running through the middle. It most reflects the image of "Mori-no-Miyako" -the City of Trees-. Under the thick Zelkova trees, you will see sunlight filtering down onto the walk ways. On a hot day, many people stop by to seek shelter under the green shade.
