Chosenji Temple

#japantrip The 650-Year-Old Wisteria at Chosenji Temple - Like Being Surrounded by Purple Curtains! The Kotsuhata no Fuji wisteria” at Chosenji Temple is said to be over 650 years old. Its trellis covers a 2,500 m² area on both sides of the front of the Main Hall. Flowers in four shadesーwhite, pink, deep purple, and light purpleーbloom in full glory, creating a breathtaking sight.✨ The flower clusters, stretching 1 to 1.5 meters, sway in the wind just like purple curtains and are very romantic.💖 Wisteria is considered a noble flower by the Japanese people. Even the popular anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba features wisteria flowers, which are said to be loathed by demons. The best time to see them is usually from late April to early May, and the peak is only about a week, so don't miss out! [Chosenji Temple] 📍Map: https://maps.app.goo.gl/D2ZJVzSzNGthamfLA
