Sendai City/“Sendai Tanabata Night Festival – Evening Lights” takes in the hustle and bustle of the festival

Various events are also held at Sendai Ryokusaikan and Zuihoden.

There were also many entertainment-oriented events. The ''Mystery-solving Night Walk,'' which takes place throughout Aobayama Park, is especially popular. A large number of participants were told that they could win prizes if they solved all five mysteries related to Sendai and Date Masamune that were scattered throughout the park.

In addition, the ''Fantasy Light Night Zuihoden Tanabata Night'' will be held at ''Zuihoden'', which is a short walk from Aobayama Park. The area was enveloped in a magical atmosphere, with traditional Tanabata decorations that recreated the ''Sendai Seven Dogu'', illuminations on the main shrine, and lights from bamboo lanterns on the grounds. In addition, a ''Forest Concert'' was held in the West Square, making the ethereal night even more mysterious.

Due to last year's success, the night festival is expected to be even more powerful this year. Let's look forward to the details.
