Trivia: It was not my first time to visit this park for wisteria viewing. But it was my first time to go inside in the evening. And my impression is that definitely night viewing is much more exciting than the daytime. I was busy shooting this video but I'd like to spend more time enjoying the view with my own naked eyes next time when I get a chance to visit this place.
