Matsushima and Sendai 仙台松岛行

---

Our flight arrived in Tokyo in the early morning, around 7am. Since it was still early, we decided to head straight to Sendai which is 2 hours from Tokyo Station by JR Tohoku Shinkansen Line.

From Sendai, we visited Masushima, which is known as one of the three most beautiful sites in Japan. We also visited the other most beautiful site in Hiroshima later on.

JNTO website has good information on Miyagi Regon.
