The Girls Festival is a famous day in Japan. This festival is practiced in houses with a girl andis for happiness and growth of girl. March 3 is girl’s festival. During this festival, we can see dolls displayed at many places. In Japan, the girls festival is called “Momo No Seku”.
Many families display dolls in their house. Dolls are displayed before the girls festival on March 3. These dolls are very beautiful. When this festival is drawing near, we often hear this festival’s song. This song’s music box is displayed with the dolls.
Though March 3 is a very famous day, the day is not a public holiday. People celebrate the doll’s festival in each house. For example, we eat Sakuramochi and Chirasizushi. Moreover we offer Hinaarare at dolls. There are various celebration ways.
It is traditionally said that if you won’t put away dolls by March 3, you don’t get married. So many people put away dolls before the girls festival. In houses with a girl, March 3 is a special day.
