Matsushima
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting and enjoy the photos from Japan!
Matsuhima is considered to be one of the 3 most scenic places of Japan. Matsushima is a bay with hundreds of islands, that have been carved away by the ocean, that are covered with pine trees. Matsushima is an amazing place but for a photographer the weather will drastically make or break your photos.
Of course this could be true for any place and seems like common sense, but Matsushima is a place that it’s true beauty can only be appreciated with good weather (and the right time of the day). During the day you can take a boat ride/tour throughout the bay. Also you can walk through some of the larger islands which can be nice.
Matsushima is close to Sendai and can be reached by train. For more detailed access information please see the Japan-guide.com.
