Hey, everyone, it's May Alex, and we're here today at the Kouachi, Fujian Wisteria Gun Booth Jr.

To-infinitive

We're about to head to the Karachi Fujian Gardens.

There's a couple of ways that you can get there, but we're running a little bit late, so we're getting a taxi, so it's probably gonna cost $30 or something.

Accessing the garden isn't straightforward.

It's on the bottom island, so it's a least five hours from Tokyo on a bullet train.

I recommend you stay overnight because otherwise that's one hell of a day trip up with the instructions below to help you out.

The main thing to remember is that it's best to get to the garden from the JR your heart to station.

During the peak season, which this year was April 21st to May 8th, a shuttle bus runs between your heart to station and the garden.

When you come out of the exit of the station, just turn left and your spot these signs so you have to pay an admission fee.

So we have to book because it's like high season that just books you are guaranteed a spot in the line.

But then, depending on the bloom of flowers, if they're in full bloom or partial bloom, they charge a different fee to enter.

And each of the moments that they're probably in full bloom, they probably look amazing.

But apparently if they're not blooming so well on that day, it'll be less maybe like 500 yen, so you have to pay twice.

I know that sounds a little bit confusing, but basically you have to buy the tickets in advance.

These will get you a guaranteed spot in the queue, but then you still have to pay the entrance, and the fee is different every day, depending on the bloom of the flowers.

Garden opens at 8 a.m. In the morning and closes at six o'clock at night during the mysterious season.

So the mysterious season runs from mid April to mid May, and I can't stress to you enough you cannot buy tickets at the entrance during the peak season.

If it's outside of peak season, then you can.

But just check online before you visit, you'll have to pick up the tickets before you go.

You can buy them online from a couple of different tourism websites, and you can also pick them up at 7 11 or family mind.

But the way that you buy them there is actually through a ticket machine.

But it's all written in Japanese, and it's very, very hard to read.

So just book your tickets before you even visit Japan.

Just buy them in advance a couple of weeks out from an English speaking website.

This is probably the most beautiful place I've ever seen.

The Gardens most famous feature is the to roughly 100 m long tunnels made of wisteria trees.

But aside from the two tunnels, there's also a huge collection off wisteria trees that form an enormous canopy of drooping flowers.

There's a lot of different varieties of wisteria growing in this canopy, so some sections will create a Grady int fade from pink to purple.

This just in instagrammers around the world are quaking.

That was, honestly, one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

This dude here represents my constant mood.

That's me when I'm tired of being screamed at by Archie all day.

If you can pull yourself away from the aesthetic backdrop of the Mysterio garden down below, there's a really, really nice look out up here.

You can't really see the wisteria, but you can see the top of them and it's really beautiful.

There's also a bamboo grove down there, too.

That's very famous is well, so this is a really nice place to stop and have a picnic.

Behind me is the top of that amazing canopy that just stretches on and on and on.

There's hundreds of people down there, but you can't see.

It just looks like you could walk on top of it.

Like I said before, the garden opens at 8 a.m. So if you can get out of bed early, if you're not like me and you don't sleep in until 1 p.m. If you if you get there early, then you can appreciate this place in all its glory, and there wouldn't be very many tourists around.

Yet because a lot of the tourists have a long way to travel, so stay nearby, get there early.

So we've come up to the very top of the garden.

If you follow the maple trees, there's a pathway that brings you up here.

There's not that many people up here, but it's a really nice spot to have a picnic down.

And I did a bit of shopping at the supermarket before we came, and we got some salad and some lollies and drinks.

So we're going thio set up here in the sunlight for a little while.

Anyone remember this little bag from my Japan hole?

Ladies, get yourself a man that isn't afraid to carry in my melody shopping bag around in public.

So for our little picnic, we picked up some grapes all the way from Australia, you know, so we can enjoy a little bit of home with a side of pesticides were picked up this blonde chocolate Pocky, which wasn't just delicious but also very practical.

You'll find out why in a minute we also picked up each Suntory, which is like alcoholic busy peach juice.

We also got some soft boiled eggs because eggs tester very good.

Unfortunately, I forgot to bring chopsticks with me, though we also picked up some cheese because what else should to lactose intolerant, typically devouring while they're on holidays smashed that like button if you also ignore your allergies.

And we also picked up in Apple because a balanced diet is a piece of fruit in one hand and a box of Pocky in the other, Alex is trying to do a thing.

Yet this'll places honestly, something straight out of a Ghibli film.

I feel like Doctor could come waltzing out of those trees any second now, followed by the cat bus.

Just There's a lot of photo opportunities here.

Despite the huge crowds, I just placed my camera on one of handrails, and I was able to use the WiFi feature to shoot remotely.

I could do a tutorial about how I take my self portrait if you like, There's a lot you can do with the cheap camera and a self timer.

It also helps if you have a patient boyfriend as well.

Don't forget to hang around until the end of the video to see a bunch of photos that I took while we're at the garden.

And even if you're not a photographer, you could probably get some good selfies to mhm.

This is the greatest place in the world, so that was a really, really fun experience.

We went just before Golden Week, and if you don't know what Golden Week is, it is a very, very long public holiday where everyone in Japan goes on holidays and they crowd all the tourist destinations and you can't even move an inch.

So we went a couple of days before golden week, and it was still busy, but it wasn't too busy.

We couldn't get any photos with like a clear shot of the Wisteria tunnel because there was too many people walking.

But at least we could walk because apparently If you go in golden week, it's so packed, you're just packed in like sardines and you can't even move.

So I would definitely recommend not to go during golden Week but trying to just on the outside of it, because that's when the mysterious in full bloom the way that we got there.

We could have got a shuttle bus, but it goes once an hour and we missed it birthday and back.

So we got a taxi, and despite the taxi costing about $30 each way, I think it was totally worth it, because that was one of the most beautiful experiences that I've ever had.

I've never seen somewhere so beautiful, and it smelled incredible and the view was perfect.
