Ashikaga Flower Park in Tochigi Prefecture
Located in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, Ashikaga Flower Park was once selected by American CNN as one of the top ten dreamy travel destinations in the world. It is the only place in Japan that made the list. During the months of April and May when the wisteria flowers bloom, the park hosts the Great Wisteria Festival, where over 350 wisteria trees blossom at the same time, creating a spectacular sight. It is said that wisteria is an ancient flowering plant in Japan, and there is even a wisteria tree that is over 150 years old, which has been designated as a national natural monument.
The sea of wisteria flowers during the day is like a dreamy fairyland, and at night, the wisteria flowers, illuminated by lights, are recognized as a Japanese night view heritage known as 'Night Wisteria'. CNN even compared it to the Tree of Souls in Avatar, making it feel like being in a forest wonderland, leaving visitors in awe.

It’s good to be back in this lovely place. The place where you can find those field of different kinds of flowers and enjoy the different activities with your family.
It's very beautiful, but it's very cold as well. The fingers are hard 😂 really, it's a place to take a lot of photos. There are a lot of food. It's fun. It's very enjoyable. 16/12/22
I visited on a sightseeing bus tour! It was very beautiful with a combination of real flowers and illumination flowers ✨
A garden worth visiting! The feeling is different from morning to night. If you have been to enjoy the cherry blossoms, the next stage is... Wisteria flower
I really like this place, really beautiful, very beautiful.
Before the New Year in January 2023, I took JR to Ashili Flower Park to watch the light show. The lights were very beautiful! The music soundtrack is also good!
