Onagawa Station

It is no longer at the level of reconstruction! ? Amazing reconstruction in front of Onagawa Station

Six years have passed since the disaster.
Onagawa Town in Miyagi Prefecture has developed into a rich and beautiful tourist destination.
I want people to learn about the charm of the town itself, not just as a tour of the disaster area.
This kind of feeling may be creating a new Onagawa.

This time, let's introduce the reborn Onagawa Station!

Sea Palpia Onagawa

Sea Palpia Onagawa is a tenant-type shopping street in front of Onagawa Station.
There are 27 shops lined up along a brick road that looks like a park with a beautiful view of the ocean.
It is not only a tourist facility, but also a base of daily life for the people living in Onagawa.

There are mini supermarkets, barber shops, women's clothing and clothing stores, and even pharmacies.
Sea Pal Pier is creating a new way of working for people living in Onagawa, from shops that are essential to people's lives to manufacturing and sales of cardboard products, guitar production and repair, original handmade goods sales, and Spanish tile sales. This is the charm of

Of course, Sea Palpia Onagawa is something that tourists can also enjoy.
At the Spanish tile shop, you can purchase original works that are only available here, and you can also try your hand at painting, so you can get not only things but memories as well.
At the cardboard manufacturing workshop, a Lamborghini made of cardboard is on display.
Onagawa is the only place in the world where you can see it up close, so you definitely want to see it!

Of course, there are plenty of restaurants as well.
In addition to freshly caught seafood, you can also enjoy dishes unique to Onagawa, such as ``Hoyakisoba'', a yakisoba made with Onagawa's famous squirt sea squirt, and ``Wakame Udon'', where you can enjoy farmed seaweed, which is said to have originated in Onagawa.
Furthermore, the restaurant that appeared in Kodoku no Gourmet has moved to Sea Pal Pier, so it is recommended as a new specialty.

Additionally, the wide, straight brick road overlooking the sea also serves as a guidepost in case of an emergency.
The brick path leading to a safe hill serves as an evacuation route in case of an emergency.
The brick path is wide enough to safely criticize no matter how many people are gathered.
I hope that it will become a symbol that protects Onagawa's future.

In this way, this ``place'' where interactions between the everyday and the extraordinary are born, continues to connect townspeople and tourists and create bonds as a new symbol of the newly reborn Onagawa.

Hama Terrace

A local market located in a corner of Sea Palpia Onagawa.
That is Hama Terrace.
Hama Terrace is a place where you can enjoy locally caught seasonal seafood while looking out over the ocean from the port town of Onagawa.
Some of the shops look like a food court, while others have lively seafood restaurants in the back, so you can choose how you like to enjoy them!
Of course, you can also purchase seafood and processed marine products!

You won't be able to resist visiting this new tourist facility where you can fully enjoy the charms of Onagawa in two ways: ``eating'' and ``touching'' the charms of Onagawa!

Onagawa Onsen Yupoppo

Onagawa Onsen Yupoppo is attached to Onagawa Station.
The recommended point is the quality of the spring water, but above all the scenery.

From the large rest room at the entrance of the large public bath on the second floor, you can see the scenery of Sea Palpia Onagawa from above.
There is also an observation deck on the 3rd floor of the station, so if you want to enjoy a wider view of Onagawa, be sure to visit the observation deck!
The first floor of the facility is a souvenir corner.
If you want to choose something as a souvenir to take to work or school, this might be better than Sea Pal Pier!

If you don't feel like soaking in a hot spring is enough, we recommend the footbath just outside the station!
It's the perfect place to soothe your tired feet after enjoying Sea Palpia Onagawa!

Would you like to work together to nurture Onagawa, which is still evolving?

Onagawa Station has been rebuilt from the disaster area and has now been reborn as a major tourist facility.
However, Onagawa's evolution is far from over.
To achieve this, we will need the support of many people.

Please come and visit Onagawa at least once a year.
Would you like to join us in growing Onagawa, which continues to grow?
Let's all work together inside and outside the town to make it even more wonderful than before!
