Sendai International Airport is said to be the gateway to Tohoku, and is known as an airport that is often used by people traveling from the Tohoku region to both Japan and overseas.

With the opening of the Sendai Airport Access Line in 2007, Sendai International Airport has become easily accessible from Sendai Station, making it a place where you can enjoy shopping and gourmet food rather than just traveling. We will introduce shopping and gourmet food at Sendai International Airport, where there are many places to enjoy. Airports are not just for traveling! I'm sure you think so.

Delicious and fun things to do in Tohoku are gathered at Sendai International Airport!

Since 2007, when Sendai International Airport became a corporation, more events have been held using the airport than ever before.

As you visit, you will notice that there are more souvenir shops than you might have imagined, and there are many famous restaurants and restaurants, and you can also purchase souvenirs from all over Tohoku.

If you are lazy, you can get souvenirs from Tohoku by going to Sendai International Airport without having to travel. For those who are heading to Tohoku from now on, this is a great place to check out as it can serve as a reference for choosing souvenirs.

Where is Sendai International Airport?

Now, I have a question for you all. Where is Sendai International Airport?

Sendai International Airport is located in Natori City, Miyagi Prefecture. Natori City is a city next to Sendai City.

I said "on the address" because the site straddles Natori City and the neighboring city of Iwanuma. When you check the address, you will see that it is a "no address" address.

It may be an unfamiliar term, but unnumbered land refers to land that is publicly solicited and does not have a lot number.Since it is a famous facility, it does not have a lot number because the target of attack cannot be identified.

How do I get to Sendai International Airport?

There are two ways to get to Sendai International Airport: by car and by train.

Sendai Airport Access Line “Sendai Airport Station”

By train, use the Sendai Airport Access Railway or the Sendai Airport Access Line. From your area, head to Sendai Station, then transfer to the Sendai Airport Access Line at Sendai Station.

You can arrive at Sendai Airport in up to 25 minutes, with no transfers required.

If you are going by car instead of using the railway, take the Sendai Tobu Road. Get off at Sendai Airport IC and arrive in about 13 to 20 minutes. If you don't use the expressway, it will take at least 23 minutes to get from Sendai Station to Sendai Airport, and even if you get stuck in traffic, you can get there within an hour.

Is it close to Sendai? far?

I think many people from outside Miyagi Prefecture head to Sendai International Airport via Sendai, but the approximate distance is 20 km and it takes 25 minutes by train, so it's not far. If you drive, it may seem far away depending on where you live, but it only takes about 30 minutes from downtown, so it's not a problem to say it's close.

After arriving at Sendai Airport Station, Sendai Airport Station and Sendai Airport Terminal are directly connected, so you can travel without any inconvenience.

Souvenirs and delicious meals that can be purchased at Sendai International Airport

Sendai Airport sells souvenirs not only from Miyagi but also from the Tohoku region.

If you don't want to add souvenirs to your luggage during your trip, you can enjoy your trip without adding to your luggage by purchasing souvenirs at the airport.

NISHIKIYA KITCHEN

Nishikiya Kitchen is a store where you can purchase retort food from Nishiki Foods, which has a factory near the airport.

Nishiki Foods now has a store in Tokyo, but it originally became famous for producing retort food for MUJI.

Since we have a large number of products, and some of them are not found in other retort food products, many people buy them as souvenirs. Personally, I recommend the ``Japanese Curry Grape Sansho Keema'', and the numbing spiciness of the sansho pepper is irresistible.

Zunda Saryo

Many people think of ``Zunda'' when they think of Miyagi, but Zunda Saryo is a popular store that sells Zunda products, and is a store that many tourists stop by at least once during their travels.

You can purchase zunda mochi, zunda-flavored sweets, and the popular zunda shake.

Zunda is a souvenir unique to Sendai, and is a taste of Miyagi that you should try at least once during your trip. Be sure to drink a Zunda shake before heading home!

SKY SHOP BOOMERANG

This shop sells not only Miyagi souvenirs, but also rare items.

If you get hungry before boarding time, you can purchase sandwiches and rice balls, as well as Blue Impulse goods belonging to the Japan Air Self-Defense Force Matsushima Base, Ministry of Defense.

Blue Impulse goods are hard to find unless you're local, so we recommend this shop if you're looking for a unique souvenir.

General store “Hagi”

General store Hagi has a wide variety of products, from masterpieces representing not only Miyagi prefecture but also Tohoku to B1 gourmet food.

It is also possible to discover products that you should have checked locally, but were unaware of.

Boxed souvenirs that you might not be able to purchase while traveling because they are too big to carry around can be purchased without worrying when you are just returning home.

We also recommend purchasing souvenirs at Sendai International Airport.

We introduced souvenirs sold at Sendai International Airport.

Many people find it difficult to choose souvenirs to purchase while traveling. The souvenirs sold at the airport have already been selected to represent the area, so no matter which one you buy, you won't be disappointed.

There are many restaurants and other shops that serve dishes made with delicious local ingredients, so be sure to use Sendai International Airport even for non-travel purposes.
