Minshuku Kami-no-Ie

Northern Honshū (Tōhoku)


This simple inn has become a symbol of post-tsunami sustainable tourism in the small community of Higashi-Matsushima, which bore the full force of the 2011 disaster. The tatami-mat rooms are bright and airy, while the seafood dinners are salty fresh. The owners also offer fishing tours in Matsushima Bay.
