This photo captures the feeling of "Wisteria Paradise! The spectacular spring scenery at Ashikaga Flower Park."

This photo was taken with azaleas as the main subject and wisteria flowers in the background. I consciously aimed for a 50-50 ratio between azaleas and wisteria. Ashikaga Flower Park in Ashikaga City, Tochigi Prefecture, is a nationally renowned tourist spot famous for its spectacular wisteria blossoms. Come spring, the park is adorned with wisteria stretching as far as the eye can see, and during the Great Wisteria Festival, countless visitors come to revel in its overwhelming beauty.The breathtaking scenery of purple, white, pink, and yellow wisteria spreading out is truly magnificent, leaving visitors deeply moved. Particularly eye-catching is the grand wisteria trellis, home to vines over 150 years old. During the day, visitors can fully appreciate its grandeur under the blue sky, while at night, it transforms into a fantastical scene illuminated by lights.Additionally, the 80-meter wisteria tunnel is renowned as a popular spot within the park, where visitors can stroll enveloped in the fragrance of the flowers.
