Kawachi Wisteria Garden

A serene park in Kitakyushu, famed for its stunning tunnels of hanging wisteria flowers, attracting visitors for floral displays.

Tips from the community

This one feels like a pastel portal straight into a freakin’ fairytale. Saunter into a periwinkle-colored tunnel made from over 150 flowering wisteria plants, with varying shades of light and dark during the blooming season. Kawachi Fuji Gardens are a bit of a hike from Tokyo, located about 5 hours away by train, but we think it’s worth the hype. Just be sure to visit between April and May, otherwise you’ll be greeted by an empty mass of twisted branches. And that’s just not the move.

Taking a leisure stroll under a canvas of electric violet is the norm at Kawachi Wisteria Garden, one of Japan’s (many) gorgeous botanical attractions. We hadn’t heard of a “flower tunnel” until we came across this place, and we gotta say, bright purple is quite the shade for it — especially when it’s 100 meters in length.
