"Sendai Castle Ruins" with a large statue of Date Masamune

Take the bus from the west exit of JR Sendai Station and get off at the "Sendai Castle Ruins" stop on the Loople Sendai bus. This is the ruins of Sendai Castle, where you can see a bronze statue of Date Masamune, who is famous for ruling the Tohoku region.

The castle tower no longer remains, but you can see traces of where Sendai Castle once stood, and cultural assets related to the castle can be seen in the archives exhibition hall. You can also use AR on your smartphone to see the great hall of Sendai Castle and Date Masamune.

Another recommended point is that you can get a panoramic view of not only the castle, but also the city of Sendai.
