In pariete



Tabula
Kesennuma sits in the far northeast of Miyagi Prefecture on the Sanriku coast, where steep hills meet the sea in a series of drowned valleys. From above, the city curls around the long, narrow Kesennuma Bay. The harbour and fish market fill the inner bay, and residential areas spread up the valleys and along the shore on both sides.
It is one of Japan's major fishing ports, known in particular for bonito and for shark catches. The city was badly damaged by the tsunami and fires of March 2011, and the rebuilt waterfront now includes raised ground and new seawalls. In 2019 a bridge was opened linking the mainland to Oshima, the island at the bay entrance.
A Kesennuma map poster gives the jagged Sanriku coastline full weight. The water in the bay and the many headlands form bold shapes, the island sits across the mouth of the harbour, and the port streets gather tightly at the inner shore. It is a strong, graphic coastal map.
At the head of the bay, quays, the fish market and working streets crowd the waterfront, the densest part of the map.
The wooded island of Oshima closes off the bay to the sea and is now linked to the mainland by a road bridge opened in 2019.
Beyond the city, the coast breaks into narrow inlets and steep headlands, the characteristic drowned-valley shoreline of the Sanriku region.

Cur Kesennuma
For people from Kesennuma, and for those who took part in its recovery, a map of the bay carries a lot of meaning. The coastline stays, even as the streets along it have been rebuilt.
