JET Programme ALT: Taking a Tour of Akiu
Have you ever wondered if there is more to do in Akiu besides plunging in their famous hot springs and staying at one of the many ryokans? Follow along as we explore further in this beautiful community tucked away in the outskirts of Sendai on a guided tour to the often-missed but must-see locations. Through watching this video, I hope it inspires you to come explore this town rich in history and culture teeming with breath-taking nature and inhabited by many craftspeople inspired by their surroundings.
Through this channel, we have visited Akiu once before
, but I hope that this video inspires you to revisit because there is always more to see and do.
Locations visited:
Akiu Sato Center (秋保 里センター)
Akiu Winery (秋保ワイナリー)
Akiu-Sha (アキウ舎)
Akiu Village (秋保ヴィレッジ)
Sendai Kaleidoscopes Art Museum (仙台万華鏡美術館)
Akiu Great Falls (秋保大滝)
Tamaki-an (二代目たまき庵)
Sendai-shi Akiu Visitor Center (仙台市秋保ビジターセンター)
Akiu Shrine (秋保神社)
We had the opportunity to receive an all expenses paid tour of Akiu during a Friday, and thus as a business trip, organized by the principal of Akiu Junior High School and the previous ALT at the school. The tour includes stops that were recommended by the students of the Junior High School in which we explored in the morning and received presentation in the afternoon. It was such a unique opportunity as it combined learning Japanese culture and traditions while taking on the role as foreigners to allow students to practice their English and help guide sightseeing tourists around their community in the future. Thanks to Roley, and all the ALTs who participated in this international day and I hope to see you guys on the next adventure. Also thank you to the many venues throughout Akiu that hosted us and made us feel welcome in their community.

What can we find in Sendai Japan?
Let's explore the world through Google Street View.
Today we are visiting Sendai Japan. This is a huge city near the north eastern coast of the main island. Big downtown with a great skyline. It also has tons of beautiful large single family homes along narrow streets around the city. I would love to visit and check out the history and get some drinks from those big vending machines.
Here you can check out where we have been on Google Maps.

Sendai (仙台市 Sendai-shi) is the capital city of Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, and the largest city in the Tōhoku region, and the second largest city north of Tokyo. In 2010, the city had a population of one million, and was one of Japan's 20 designated cities. The city was founded in 1600 by the daimyo Date Masamune, and is nicknamed the City of Trees (杜の都 Mori no Miyako); there are about 60 zelkova trees on Jōzenji Street (定禅寺通 Jōzenji dōri) and Aoba Street (青葉通 Aoba dōri).
In the summer, the Sendai Tanabata Festival, the largest Tanabata festival in Japan, is held. In winter, the trees are decorated with thousands of lights for the Pageant of Starlight (光のページェント), lasting through most of December.
On March 11, 2011, coastal areas of the city suffered catastrophic damage from a magnitude 9.0 offshore earthquake which triggered a destructive tsunami.
