Japan are in full bloom after the cherry
blossom trees have come and gone it is

[Music]
Ashikaga flower park is a flower
paradise with over 23 acres of blooming
flowers their main attraction being the
350 wisteria trees blanketing the area
wisteria is Fuji in Japanese and the
kanji for Fuji appears in plenty of
Japanese family names HP kagaz main
attraction is the 140 year old great
miracle with syria tree towering above
all the blooming flowers below
we visited the flowers around the end of
April the parks blooming peak is the
beginning of May hey guys welcome back

expecting this it's really beautiful and
we're just gonna walk around and take
videos and pictures of all the flowers

a Chicago spread of beautiful bright
flowers this will always be the home of
humongous bees next to all the bees
could that be
look at that bee run away they are
everywhere in packs and Families but
surprisingly you could get close to one
and it wouldn't lay a stinger on ya okay
so we're trying to get so many pictures
I feel like this is more of a place to
get Instagram pictures and it is to get
a vlog or a beautiful it's so beautiful
but this whole place is infested by B so
I'm freaking out because I've never been
stung by a bee guys if I get stung by a
bee I might be rushed to the hospital
and have to use my EpiPen every batch of
flowers at washy kaga is unique and the
air is filled with the scent of jasmine
and a combination of all plants that
smell good this is a hot spot for
photographers and instagramers alike

mountain I don't got the shoes for this

there are hundreds of other flower
species circling the park including
peonies hydrangea and water lilies

mountains of flowers around this time of

Chicago flower park has a menu of
strawberry flavored milk shakes and ice
cream as well as traditional Japanese
yakisoba or takoyaki this is our lunch

strawberry smoothie and that's like
strawberry sorbet ice cream I'm loving

to see it Ashikaga were the hundreds of
wisteria vines hanging from an overhead
structure
I was almost tall enough to touch them
too

the flower pyramids in the water the
colors were eye catching and the
presentation was one of a kind
