200-meter Wisteria Tunnel in Fukui

Walk through a long tunnel looking up at lovely flowers

I'm a big fan of wisteria. Ever since May came I kept looking for places in Fukui where I could see them. However, when I searched on the Internet I couldn't find any places famous for these flowers. One day, when I was trying to decide where to explore, the word '200-meter wisteria corridor' hit my eyes. The homepage of Murasaki Shikibu Park writes ever so unceremoniously that there is one in the park. A 200-meter-long wisteria corridor should make the park famous for it, but it's generally unknown even to the local people. I rushed to the park of course but sadly the peak was over and only a small part of the corridor was decorated by pretty flowers about to fall to the ground. I should come back again next year for sure!
