an area of approximately 9,900 square meters and was first opened to
tourists in 1977.
There are a total of 22 kinds of wisteria flowers in the park, mainly in

tunnels of about 110 meters and 80 meters.
The greenhouse is about 3,600 square meters. The rattan tree in the center was
transplanted from Hanoi Village and is said to be 130 years old.

On time..
Our guide, May, was good. Just a feedback - to please ensure to look out for the elderly who cannot walk so fast. As the places are very crowded, we couldn't really keep up with her and had to try our best to not lose sight of her in the crowds. All 3 places we visited were interesting, but we would have preferred more time at Kokura Castle. Not enough time to explore the grounds and the interesting stalls around it.
