Shirakawa-go isn’t just full of fairy-tale-like gingerbread-house scenery—there are also signs of bears roaming the area. But the little bridges and gently flowing streams in the countryside still feel peaceful, reminding us that the power of nature and a quiet sense of beauty can truly exist side by side.

Ashikaga Flower Park
At Ashikaga Flower Park, you can enjoy the sight of all kinds of seasonal flowers, which adorn the park according to eight themes: "Early Spring", "The Spring Flower Festival", "A Tale of the Wisteria", "Rainbow Garden", "Blue and White Garden", "The Flower Faeries Who Float By the Water", "Purple Garden", and "The Garden of Illuminated Flowers". The park is a popular location, enjoying not only local visitors, but those from abroad.
If you come in the right season, the wisteria is in full bloom and absolutely gorgeous. But it does get pretty crowded, and the wait for food is a bit long.
