Hina Matsuri (Doll’s Festival) – Girl’s Day
March 3rd is a special day for girls in Japanese culture. It is Girl’s Day which celebrates “Hina Matsuri” (Doll’s Festival) and it is also known as “Momo-no Sekku”
(Peach blossom’s Festival). On this day, families with young daughters celebrate the future with happiness of their daughter. They decorate “hina-ningyo” (dolls which are replicas of an ancient emperor and empress and their subordinates). Peach blossoms symbolize happy marriage and are indispensable decorations of this festival day.
The blossoms signify the feminine traits – of gentility, composure, and tranquility.
