This 150-Year-Old Wisteria Is The Most Beautiful One In The World

If you go to the Ashikaga Flower Park in Tochigi, Japan you’ll find a wisteria that’s often referred to as “the most beautiful in the world.” At around 150 years old, the massive wisteria is stunning when in full bloom. The vertical flowers dangle so far down that they nearly touch the ground and create a purplish-pink cloud that hovers above the grass.

Because of its age and the number of blooms, the vines are supported by gridded beams and form a stunning flower umbrella. With its ethereal presence and fairytale feel, it’s no wonder that this wisteria has been a muse for landscape photographers around the world.
