Zao Snow Wall and Sakura 1-DAY Bus tour with Ohanami experience

Be ready at the sightseeing bus stop near Sendai Station’s east exit. Make sure to arrive on time to check in for the tour.

At the Daikokuten Parking Lot, the adventure truly begins. Take a short walk to the iconic Zao Snow Wall, a 2-km corridor lined with towering snow walls created during the snow-clearing process. You’ll have plenty of time to marvel at this rare sight, take photos, and enjoy activities like sledding or viewing snowplows up close.

Discover the art and history behind the handcrafted wooden dolls known as kokeshi, a Tohoku specialty. The museum features displays of beautifully crafted dolls and offers a deeper understanding of the region’s traditions.

Arrive at the breathtaking Funaoka Castle Park and the famous Hitome Senbonzakura area. Stroll along the Shiraishi River, where thousands of sakura trees bloom in harmony with the snow-capped Mt. Zao in the background. During your visit, enjoy a delicious bento box lunch under the cherry blossoms, a traditional hanami experience that’s both relaxing and memorable.

The tour concludes as the bus returns to Sendai Station’s east exit. Arrive between 16:00 and 16:30, marking the end of a day filled with stunning scenery, cultural experiences, and cherished memories.
