* MATSUSHIMA
Counted among the three most beautiful scenic spots of Japan, Matsushima has been referred to in old poems, and many prominent figures have paid it a visit. The view of the two hundred and sixty large and small islands, with green pine trees, scattered across the blue sea, is breathtaking. The changing scenery of the seasons reminds visitors of a miniature garden. Fresh oysters are a popular winter delicacy.

SENDAI PAGEANT OF STARLIGHT
In Sendai, known as the "City of Trees," one million light bulbs light up the 298 Japanese elm trees lining the street, the city's symbol. Anyone walking below the lighted arches extending into the distance will feel a sense of pleasure and excitement. The illumination is sure to warm the viewers' hearts, no matter how cold the winter night is.
