Hi, I’m Tabi!

This guide introduces a disaster-learning site and a local market in Yamamoto, Miyagi. The opening photograph shows Nakahama Elementary School in 2022. Visit respectfully and allow quiet time for remembrance and learning.

This guide covers places within Yamamoto, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

A first-visit stop

Nakahama Elementary School disaster memorial

震災遺構中浜小学校

This public learning site preserves traces of the 2011 tsunami. Check admission, closing days and designated visitor routes. Storyteller guides, groups of 20 or more and school disaster-learning visits have reservation requirements; consult official guidance in advance.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02

A first-visit stop

Yamamoto Yume Ichigo no Sato

やまもと夢いちごの郷

This agricultural and seafood market adjoins Sakamoto Station and offers local information and food. Market and food-court hours can differ. Check current trains, pedestrian access and individual shop opening days; not every product is necessarily grown in Yamamoto.

Getting there

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Yamamoto specialities include strawberries, apples and seasonal seafood. Fresh fruit and processed products depend on season and stock. An autumn visit does not guarantee strawberry picking. Check individual farms’ booking periods, and ingredients such as milk or wheat in processed foods.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
