Seeing Hinamatsuri (ひな祭り) dolls festival in Chikugo Yoshii, Fukuoka

Yesterday, we had decided to take a drive to Chikugo Yoshii (筑後吉井) to see Hinamatsuri dolls festival, a special day in Japan. Hinamatsuri is celebrated each year on March 3.

We visited to Kagamida Yashiki (鏡田屋敷) Samurai Residence, a venue which the doll festival is held. We parked a car at tourist information center, and take a short walk to the place. We walked a very narrow street along a row of traditional Japanese houses in this street, and turned right near the Susanoo Shrine. While looking at a small waterway to the left, we finally arrived there.

 Let's start uploading!

Various Hina set display at the entrance.

Seven-tiered Hina doll set at the Fusuma room. You'll see the difference between the Kyoto (Kansai) on the left one and the Edo (Kanto) on the right one. Both ones have different the placement orders of the dolls from left to right, but the order of the dolls per level are the same.

More Hina doll set display at the Okunoma Tatami room.
