The wisteria flowers are in full bloom!

The striking pale purple wisteria flowers are in full bloom now.
During the Heian period, purple was considered a noble color.
It is also featured in many waka poems as a flower that evokes images of women in furisode kimonos.

The flower's meaning is "welcome."
The wisteria flowers drooping down to welcome the guests are very beautiful.
Enjoy the spectacular views that can only be seen at this time of year.
