Sendai
The central city of northeastern Japan, Sendai City in Miyagi Prefecture is home to many historic landmarks. A coastal town by the Pacific Ocean, its winters are mild with little snow, and its summers are cool and dry thanks to the incoming sea breeze. The weather is great for taking walks in year-round and the city is not only very livable, but an ideal place to study Japanese. Only an hour train-ride away is Matsushima, a group 260 small islands covered in pine trees considered to be one of the Three Views of Japan. Why not study and experience the great marriage of nature and history in the city with one of Japan's most thriving educational institutions?
