HINAMATSURI｜Kyushu Tourism Information [ Japan ]

Speaking of Kyushu's traditional way of life, it is a "Hinamatsuri" held in various places. The "Hina dolls" that have been passed down since the Edo period are influenced by the state in which the region was located, and the customs are slightly different.

Hinamatsuri is one of the great celebrations in Japanese culture.

When a girl is born to a family, good dolls are presented by the family and neighbors and are used to decorate the house, This festival prays for the child's safe passage through the journey of life.

Kyushu's Hinamatsuri vary by region. Regardless of the dolls shape or whether they feature hanging balls or not, they are all enjoyable to view.

Because the festival is held from January through April, it can fit into any plan.

Because the festival varies from place to place, (e.g., 'Hako-bina' and 'Nagashi-bina'), you can learn about the history of different regions.

In addition to the "Hina Dolls", events like the "Water Parade" and "Hina Kaiseki" can be enjoyed.
