    Miyagi Katta-gun Shichikashukumachi Namezu
    This Edo-period highway passes through what is today Shichikashuku Town, Katta County. The area became known as Shichikashuku because there were seven shukuba (post stations) along the highway, which was the major thoroughfare between the Oshu Highway and the Dewa Highway at the time. Every August an event called “Waraji de Aruko Shichikashuku” in which participants walk the highway in straw sandals is organized.

Lying along the northeastern coast of Japan, Miyagi prefecture is home to lashings of natural parks, oysters, and hot springs. While the bustling city of Sendai offers some simple city entertainment, it’s the Matsushima islands that deserve the most attention, having boosted the prefecture’s reputation as one of Japan’s most scenic views.
