Located in Ashikaga Park, the ancient wisteria tree has magnificent beauty, covering over 1,000 m2.
The wisteria tree 149 years old in Ashikaga park (Tochigi prefecture) is the largest and oldest wisteria tree in Japan. The canopy covers an area of up to 1,000 m2.
Planted since 1870, wisteria is now becoming a tourist destination for many tourists to Japan.
The tree has a woody trunk but belongs to the vine family. Because the tree canopy was wider and more intertwined, vines used the iron pole system to reduce the weight of the trunk.
The wisteria in Japan is a symbol of eternal love. The petals are soft, but the stems and roots are very firm and strong, expressing a special aspect of love. That is the couple must always persevere to overcome difficulties and challenges.
At night, the park is lit, the purple of wisteria flowers with the light creates a magical, romantic space, attracting many tourists in the wisteria season. Address: Ashikaga Park: 607 Hasamacho, Ashikaga, Tochigi.
“Wisteria tunnel” with about 350 consecutive trees 80 meters long is a masterpiece not to be missed.
