Overview

Kawaichi Fuji Garden is a privately owned wisteria garden located in Yahatanishi-ku, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture, renowned for its stunning wisteria blossoms. The owner's years of dedicated cultivation have resulted in a truly awe-inspiring display! During peak season, from late April to mid-May, around 22 varieties of wisteria burst into bloom, creating a breathtaking spectacle. The two wisteria tunnels, one 80 meters and the other 110 meters long, are an absolute must-see! A mesmerizing gradient of light purple, white, and pink blossoms creates a dreamlike atmosphere. Walking through the tunnels, you'll be enveloped in a sweet fragrance, feeling completely immersed in the beauty of the flowers. From mid-November to early December, approximately 700 maple trees put on a vibrant show, painting the garden in fiery reds and yellows. The maple tunnel is also a highlight during this season! Note that the paths are on a steep incline, so comfortable shoes are recommended. Kawaichi Fuji Garden is a popular tourist spot offering beautiful scenery year-round, with wisteria in spring and autumn leaves in fall. During the wisteria season, expect crowds and consider purchasing tickets in advance. This is the perfect escape for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Come and experience it for yourself!
