Earthquake Update Sendai was the closest major city to the earthquake's epicenter. The tsunami devastated the city's coastal outskirts but did not reach the city center, which suffered only moderate damage from the tremors. Access to and transportation within Sendai have normalized many months ago, and most tourist sites have reopened. More about the earthquake   With roughly one million inhabitants, Sendai is by far the largest city in the Tohoku Region and one of the country's fifteen largest cities. The modern city of Sendai was founded around the year 1600 by Date Masamune, one of feudal Japan's most powerful lords. Many of Sendai's tourist attractions are related to Masamune and his family. Less than an hour northeast of the city center lies the town of Matsushima, whose bay is dotted by pine clad islets and is known for one of Japan's three most scenic views. Any Questions?
