Akiu is a famous hot spring town in Miyagi prefecture located South-West of Sendai. It is accessible from Sendai Station through public transportation by taking the JR Senzan Line to Ayashi Station, then transferring to a bus for 25 minutes South to Akiu.
Living so close to Akiu, I have been fortunate to visit many times. Every time that I have visited there is something new to discover. Not shown in the video but other recommended highlights from past trips here are the Kaleidoscope Museum, Akiu Craft Park, Akiu Winery and Akiu Great Falls. Akiu is beautiful in every season and with its many different hot spring hotels, it is definitely worth it to visit more than once.
Locations visited: Akiu Sato Center, Saichi Shufu No Mise, Sakan Onsen, Rai Rai Gorge, Yumoto Park
The Let’s Go Series was produced to inspire my ES children to get outside and explore. Only basic English is used in the videos so that children learning English as a second language can follow along.
