Located in the Japanese town of Kitakyushu, a 12 hour drive from Tokyo Japan, you will find the beautiful “Kawachi Fuji Garden”. One of the main attractions is a tunnel created entirely from the flowers of the Wisteria plant (Wisteria Tunnel).

The Wisteria Flower tunnel allows visitors to walk down the attraction exploding the colors of the enchanting Wisteria flowers.

Wisteria or Wisteria – one of the most beautiful climbing plants, is a large deciduous woody vines with rigid trunk. Wisteria flowers with delicate sweet flavor, are collected in large hanging brushes of various colors: white, blue, purple, violet-blue, purple, pink or purple.

The height of this plant is 15 meters, which allows you to create huge skeletons to support vines.

To see the garden in full bloom, it is necessary to come here closer to the middle of May. Every year wisteria bloom so magnificently, but even later in the year, these vines create a very beautiful pictures in this wonderful garden.

To say these Wisteria flowers are beautiful is somewhat an understatement. I certainly wish I had a garden big enough to support something so amazing!
