2022-04-07

If you’ve caught flower fever after this spectacular sakura season, don’t worry – Wisteria season is just around the corner so get ready! Wisteria, known as fuji or ofuji in Japanese, bloom between mid-April and mid-May.

Japan is home to some of the best wisteria gardens in the world. As well as this, Japanese gardens and parks are so beautifully sculpted and often feature blooms throughout all seasons. So, do check out your local parks – you never know, you may come across some gorgeous wisteria!

Here are our tips on where to see wisteria in Japan; this list includes some of the most famous spots, such as Ashikaga Flower Park, as well as some hidden gems.

Mandara-ji Temple, Aichi

The highlight of this wisteria in Fukuoka are two 100-meter long wisteria tunnels filled with a colourful spectrum of blooms. There is also a vantage point in Kawachi Fujien that allows you to see the carpet of wisteria from above.

Wisteria in Fukuoka blooms slightly earlier than the wisteria in Hyogo, Aichi, and Tochigi due to the warmer climate!
