    Miyagi Pref. Osakishi Narukonsen Shitomae 74-2
    The origin of kokeshi wooden dolls is said to have been in Naruko towards the end of the Edo period (1804–1830) when they were made as hot spring souvenirs by woodworkers who carved bowls and trays and this is said to be the oldest production area for these dolls. The museum opened in 1975. It exhibits kokeshi offered up for the National Kokeshi Festival, presents the procedure for making the dolls, demonstrates the spinning lathe and has a wholesale shop that sells the highest number of kokeshi dolls in Naruko. It is around six minutes by car from JR Naruko Onsen Station.

    Was hoping to see more of kokeshi doll in this museum, however, all the descriptions are in Japanese. Overall, the museum looks dated. It was cold inside the museum and only 3 rooms of display...

    山添喜三郎氏が設計したもので、明治の事務所建築としては珍しいものらしいです。木造の二階建て、白いペンキの寄棟の瓦葺きです。玄関屋根下の白壁には金色の警察紋章が輝いており、貴賓も感じられます。建家内は、明治の警察官の制服や留置場などがあり、興味深いところでした。

    Miyagi Pref. Tomeshi Toyomamachiteraike Sakurakouji 6
    A history museum located in the Tome-cho neighborhood of Tome City, known as Miyagi Prefecture's Meiji Village due to its many historical buildings. The museum conveys what education was like for a typical Japanese school student from the Meiji to the Taisho periods. The building itself was a real elementary school building in 1888. The school was designed by Kisaburo Yamazoe, the first Japanese person to travel to the west to study architecture. Inside, real desks and chairs from the school's heyday as well as life-sized mannequins show what schooling looked like at the time.

    登米教育資料館は、旧登米高等尋常小学校で、明治の洋風学校を代表する建築物として昭和56年(1981)に重要文化財に指定された非常に貴重な建物です。また、この場所は、連続テレビ小説 おかえりモネ のロケ地 にもなっています。

    Miyagi Kurihara-shi Wakayanagi Kamihataoka Shikimi 17-2
    A 15 minute drive from the Tsukidate interchange on the Tohoku Expressway. Situated on the north shore of Lake Izunuma, known as a mecca for migratory birds, this center contains information and exhibits on wild birds and other area wildlife, introducing the natural abundance and rich cultural and social environment of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands-designated Lake Izunuma and Lake Uchinuma. Exhibit tables in the shape of Lake Izunuma and Lake Uchinuma placed on top of a giant 16 meter in diameter aerial photo of the area make it fun to learn about the wildlife of the marshlands. There are live observation cameras and field scopes in the viewing lounge on the second floor.

    センターの淡水魚館は興味の無い旅行者からすると一寸邪魔な施設に感じました。遠くから目立つので、そこの駐車場を利用しようとしましたが、メインの沼にアクセスする駐車場は道路の反対側で目立ちません。そちらには入口の案内看板もないので、迷いました。

    Miyagi Tome-shi Yoneyamacho Nishinoshin Toda 67

    国道346号沿いにある道の駅で駐車場は100台以上停められる、比較的大きな道の駅です。 周辺にはガソリンスタンドやドラッグストアが有り、コンビニも500ｍ以内にあります。 GW頃には周辺にチューリップが咲いて綺麗なようですが私が行ったのは10月だったのでその光景は見れませんでした。 他の道の駅と同様、地元の農産物の販売が中心ですが地域の名産としてイチゴと豚肉を推している様でした。 道の駅の入り口に...

    2015年9月に日本ジオパークに認定された、栗駒山麓ジオパークを紹介する施設です。 入ると親切なジオガイドさんが、色々な説明をしてくれたり、床面が栗原市の航空写真になっていたり、何度見ても新鮮な感じがします。 巨大スクリーンに映し出される映像は、圧巻です。 ゴールデンウィークに実施していた、VRはまさに空中散歩でした。 是非一度お越し訪れてみることをおすすめします。 入場料無料もありがたいです。

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.
