Where to See the Best Wisteria Blooms in Japan This Spring

"At Tokyo's Kameido Tenjin Shrine I saw lavender-colored wisteria raining down in bunches over trellises that hang above a pond that beautifully reflects the display; the wisteria were planted during the Edo period (1603–1867), the shrine's wisteria festival typically runs from mid-April through the end of the month, and admission is free." - Talia Avakian Talia Avakian Talia Avakian is a lifestyle reporter based in Los Angeles with a love for outdoor excursions, off-the-beaten-path local finds, remote and historic hotels, and innovations in food.

I was not expecting the beauty of this shrine. I decided to stop in when I saw I had some free time in the area and was absolutely blown away. The bridges, nature, the garden of bonsai trees, and everything else this shrine had to offer cannot be missed. The top of the largest bridge gives you a completely unexpected view of the sky tree as well which was an incredible surprise.

A wonderful small shrine complex. The wisteria trellises are the main draw: the flowers were starting to emerge when I visited and smelt beautiful. But there are also other flowers in bloom, you can watch the koi, ducks and turtles swim in the water, and enjoy the tranquility of the garden. The bullfinch charms and wisteria themed charms and ema are very pretty. It's very striking seeing the Skytree in the distance contrasting with the shrine grounds. Unfortunately the main shrine was under maintenance when I visited, but that gives me a reason to visit again sometime! Kameido in general is very nice area that feels like a 'town' and was a nice break from central Asakusa

It is a good place to visit once.. The shrine is currently undergoing restoration and hence it is not very clearly visible. The lake in the garden are wisteria flowers plants. So if you happen to visit in the right bloom, it’s a good idea. Especially it is in Tokyo and not very far off for Tokyo residents.

You have to come here when the Wisteria is in bloom it is absolutely stunning. The views with the Tokyo sky tree in the background are gorgeous and the wisteria groves loop around a pond filled with carp and turtles. The smell of the flowers is everywhere - and it’s free to enter!

The wisteria are not blooming in June, and some premises are under renovation. Abundant plants are in the premises and they are well labelled. Green haven.

Went in January during bullfinch festival and it was packed. Did not take in the bullfinch festival line that was very long and prevented access to vendors. Despite this I found this shrine and its bridges amazing. Able to walk around space and would love to see this with wisteria either in bloom or just filled out with leaves. Neighborhood is packed with restaurants and cool shops. Even saw one small bloom that I’m pretty sure was a plum blossom. No wait to walk around but I expect at least 90 minutes if getting or returning a bull finch figure.

Absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately the temple was under repair but we could still prey and we watched the turtles for 45 minutes. Great view of the sky tree also!

The Shrine is in a really quiet area, just a nice 10-15 minute walk from the station. Didn’t get to see the flowers due to the season we’ve visited but the shrine is still worth visiting. You can also easily walk to Tokyo Skytree from here - it's about 20 minutes, so check the distance on Google Maps.
