關西7大紫藤花勝地:紫色花海盡收眼底
日本的春天是鮮花盛開的季節!在日本,很多人一想到春天的花朵,可能會想到櫻花,但紫藤花是日本人熟悉的春天花朵,甚至在和歌中也有記載。觀賞isteria 花的最佳時間是在櫻花盛開之後。即使在櫻花結束后,我們仍然希望遊客看到一些日本風景! *參觀部分景點需要入場費和參拜費。詳情請查看各景點的官方網站。 -INDEX- [大阪福島區] 下福島公園等 [大阪,東澄吉] 長居植物園 [兵庫縣丹波市] 白溝寺 [兵庫縣寶塚市] 中山寺 [京都,宇治] 平等院 [京都,伏見] 上南宮 [奈良] 春日大社 紫藤花即使在城市中心也可以看到。福島區和野田地區位於大阪梅田地區附近,約有 600 年的歷史,一直被稱為著名的富士樹名勝。這也是紫藤花(富士)的標準日本名稱是 「nodafuji」 的地方。 野田的紫藤花在第二次世界大戰期間的一次空襲中幾乎完全消失,但在當地居民的努力下,現在已經恢復了。每年在區內的29個地點盛開,包括公園和公共設施。 特別是下福島公園,紫藤棚架數量最多的區,值得一看。阪神野田站前的廣場風景如畫,紫藤花的紫色調與城市景觀形成鮮明對比。 通常參觀時間:4 月中旬 “Nagai Botanical Garden” 的藍色和淺紫色花朵的合作在照片中看起來很棒。Nemophila 是近年來日本流行的春花,在佔地約 2,000 平方米的 Life Garden 中盛開。在它旁邊,4 月中旬,野田藤(紫藤花)開滿了淺紫色的花朵,使這裡成為遊客可以同時看到所有受歡迎的花朵的地方。 長居植物園距離梅田、心齋橋和難波僅一趟地鐵車程。從市中心可輕鬆抵達,遊客一年四季都可以遇到各種各樣的植物、樹木和花卉。常設夜間戶外博物館「Team Lab Botanical Garden Osaka」也很受歡迎! ▼ teamLab植物園大阪的亮點和活動 通常的觀賞時間:4月中旬(嗜魚:4月中旬至5月上旬) 白狗寺的紫藤景象讓人不感動!從大阪站乘坐火車和計程車到白溝寺大約需要 2 小時 20 分鐘,但風景是如此壯觀,會讓您無言以對。前任住持大約在 30 年前種植了這種紫藤花,花簇長達 1 米多。紫藤棚架的體積是壓倒性的,因為它們在120公尺的廣闊區域上呈L形。紫藤花像雨一樣從頭頂傾瀉而下。白後寺九沙宮富士祭將於 2025 年 4 月 27 日(星期日)至 5 月 6 日(星期二、公休日)上午 8:30 至下午 6:00 舉行。紫藤點燈時間為下午 6:30 至晚上 9:00,但燈飾的全部效果在晚上 7:00 後變得可見,營造出讓人想起極光流過天空的場景。 * 節日期間可能會根據開花條件而改變。請查看官方網站以獲取更新。 通常參觀時間: 5 月上旬至中旬 中山寺以其肥沃和安全分娩而聞名。它位於寶塚,溫泉泉水噴涌而出。寺院內的「星之廣葉」有一個 80 米長的紫藤花架,從 4 月中旬到下旬,紫藤花盛開。紫色紫藤在日本最常見,但中山寺的特點是白色紫藤。如果你在陽光明媚的日子來訪,它們看起來就像漂浮在藍天的雲朵!紫藤花的甜美芬芳也飄蕩在空氣中。 通常觀賞時間:4 月中旬至下旬平等院鳳凰殿建於 1053 年,是 10 日元硬幣上描繪的著名地標,是作為遊客訪問京都的必遊景點。平等院花園開滿了四季的鮮花,與建在池塘中央的鳳凰堂和池塘另一邊的山景一起,是人們在建造寺廟時所設想的天堂的形象。春天,池塘裡開滿了盛開的紫藤花,與華麗的鳳凰廳相得益彰。這確實是一個天堂般的環境,具有優雅的日本風味,不容錯過。 通常的觀賞時間:4 月中旬至 5 月上旬 城南宮是遊客可以欣賞到時令花卉的地方。寺院內有五個花園,每年在“室町之庭”花園中開出紫藤花的色調,這是一個帶有池塘的圓形花園的花園。春天,不僅紫藤花盛開,園內的山吹樹和杜鵑花樹也幾乎同時綻放,因此有很多值得一看的地方。此外,還有 「紫藤神樂 」表演(免費入場),其中手握紫藤枝,冠冕一簇紫藤花的巫女表演神樂舞,如果你收到 「紫藤花護身符」,巫女會用神樂鈴鐺淨化你(每個護身符 1,000 日元)。在這裡,遊客不僅可以賞花,還可以享受“體驗”。 通常觀賞時間: 4月下旬 紫藤神樂神樂:2025年5月1日至6日、10日、11日、17日、18日、24日和25日每天10:00和15:00 春日大社是奈良的主要旅遊景點之一,其美麗的神社亭被塗成鮮豔的朱紅色,被指定為世界遺產。紫藤花是春日大社的重要花,甚至用於神社的徽章。紫藤花在神社內野生生長,主殿的「砂摟紫藤」被稱為名樹。此外,萬葉集植物園種植了與日本最古老的詩歌選集《萬葉集》相關的約 300 種花卉和植物,種植了 20 個品種的約 200 株紫藤花,讓遊客可以瞭解花的形狀、大小和顏色因品種而異。 通常觀賞時間:4 月中旬至 5 月上旬 自古以來,日本人就對季節的變化很敏感。您不認為紫藤花的優雅和莊重的印象與日本的和諧形象有關嗎?請參觀一個可以看到紫藤花日式風光的地方。
