Amazing Wisteria Waterfall: Ashikaga Flower Park (CNN’s Dream Destination)#travel #japan#ashikaga
Hello everyone Today I will go to Tochigi Prefecture near Tokyo Go enjoy one of Japan’s most beautiful views, the wisteria flowers I will go to Kobe Airport in the morning The sea view along the way is really healing That’s the highway from Kansai Airport to Kobe Airport. It only takes half an hour to get there Very convenient Arrived at Kobe Airport Terminal 1 is for domestic flights Few people Only ANA and Skymark flights are available Pick up your ticket using a self-service machine It only took 2 minutes to pass the security check. The airport is small but well-equipped There’s even a retro pay phone. The Pokémon painted plane is so cute On board Let’s take a look at this lovely plane from another angle. Take off The bridge in the distance is the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge Connects Honshu and Awaji Island This airline flies to various locations in Japan. And the air tickets are very cheap, I highly recommend Such a cute illustration The items on sale are also very cute There are pictures of various places in Japan on the paper cups. This is from Okinawa and Nagoya There are many small islands in the Sea of Japan It takes less than an hour to get to Tokyo. Now go take the monorail to Tokyo Station The monorail at Haneda Airport has a dedicated luggage storage area Very considerate design There will be a beautiful sea view along the way Arrived at Matsuhama-chō Station Transfer to Tokyo Station in one stop Meet up with friends at Tokyo Station Then take JR to Ashikaga City Need to change trains midway The whole journey takes two and a half hours Going to transfer Because it’s a small place So the train runs very rarely. It’s finally here Many tourists Everyone went to enjoy the flowers. The ticket price is not cheap because it is the time when the wisteria flowers are in full bloom After entering, there is a large shopping area There are various peripheral goods There is also a large dining area in the park. This family is very popular Many people line up Well, just eat something casually. I ordered ramen and tempura rice bowl There is also flower-shaped ice cream (the taste is average, not recommended) After dinner, we started to visit the park The corridor of white wisteria flowers is so dreamy There are all kinds of beautiful flowers in the park The azaleas are also in bloom Of course, the most beautiful is the wisteria Yaeto is very special Double petals The big vine is the most beautiful These two large vines are over 160 years old. Its vines are 1,000 square meters wide. It’s really dreamy. Everyone comes here because of its reputation One hour until sunset The lights are on early. The color looks better The sun finally sets The most dreamy moment has arrived There are more tourists It’s almost time It’s time to leave You can also buy flowers to plant at home We will not go back to Tokyo today but stay in Ashikaga There are few restaurants nearby, and there are no convenience stores. Finally, I found a Japanese restaurant. The restaurant features Japanese teppanyaki This is a kind of food from Tsukishima district in Tokyo This is a unique variation of okonomiyaki in the Osaka area Adding fried noodles to traditional okonomiyaki Usually fried udon or fried soba noodles Makes it more hearty and chewy This is the hotel we are staying at tonight Only about 10,000 yen The hotel looks like a container. Very cool There is a self-service laundry room They even provide frozen bento Just heat it up and you can eat it Check out and get ready to leave This is a typical Japanese town. There are few people on the street Full of retro atmosphere of Showa The train finally arrived It will take us another two and a half hours to get back to Tokyo. Arrived at Tokyo Station This station has a history of more than 100 years. This is the most beautiful station in Japan in my opinion. I’m going home now. See you next time.
Welcome to Ashikaga Flower Park in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. The park boasts over 350 wisteria trees, including a magnificent Great Wisteria over 160 years old, spreading across a 1,000-square-meter trellis. Visitors can also stroll through an enchanting 80-meter-long white wisteria tunnel and a golden laburnum tunnel. From mid-April to mid-May, the park hosts the “Wisteria Story – Great Wisteria Festival,” featuring nightly illuminations that transform the wisteria into a magical spectacle. Join us to experience this breathtaking floral paradise! This video documents my two-day, one-night journey starting from Kobe to Tokyo, followed by a train ride to Ashikaga City.
