Hina-Dolls Festival (Hina-Maturi)
Girl's Festival or Doll's festival is coming on March 3rd. Hina nina-ningyo (Hina Doll) is a special doll wearing traditional Japanese costume for Doll's festival. Hina Ningyo (doll) is a special doll wearing a traditional Japanese costume for "Doll's festival" a set of special dolls for Doll's festival held on the 3rd of March each year.
*Entrance & Inside*
What is unique about Girl's Festival is that they traditionally use hanging ornaments called "Sagemon". In Japanese "sageru" means "hang". They are said to bring with them longevity and are passed down on from parent to child, from generation to generation. I wish you to enjoy the lovely dolls. According to "Chinese Twelve Zodiac Sign” this year is the "Dragon Year".
