“The Great Wisteria Festival” of Ashikaga Flower Park

Visit the most beautiful wisteria trellises in the world!

Ashikaga Flower Park was the only spot in Japan that had been selected as “top 10 world Dream destinations” by CNN.
The garden holds “The Great Wisteria Festival” from late April to mid-May every year.
You can see the Great wisteria over 160 years old which spreads over a 600-tatami trellis area, as well as the 80m-long white wisteria tunnel, the Laburnum tunnel and more than 350 other wisteria trees in full bloom.
Various colors of wisteria bloom in order, from pale pink, purple, white, to yellow, which allows you to enjoy all of the wisteria for about one full month. You also can enjoy wisteria in night because the garden would be lighted up during the festival.
In 2018, the JR Railway opened JR Ashikaga Flower Park Station, which make visitors to come here easily.
