The cache is hidden around Bansui Sohdoh.
Doi Bansui (1871-1952) is a poet who is famous of the lyrics of a song "Kohjoh no Tsuki" (moon over desert castle). Also very famous with translation of English literature.
He had been a teacher of Sendai No. 2 High School, and when his house burned out in WWII, his students donated many books and established this Bansui Sohdoh (modest house). He had been living there since 1949, and still the original house is remained there.
Neighbor of the Bansui Sohdoh, there is UNESCO Sendai building. The place is also known as the origin of UNESCO activity as private sector.
The cache container is 100ml tupperware.
