Hina Matsuri, Doll’s Day at Portland Japanese Garden
Hina Matsuri, also called Doll’s Day or Girl’s Day, is celebrated each year in Japan to celebrate the happiness, growth, and good health of girls. In Japan, families with daughters mark the festival by displaying intricately crafted hina dolls dressed in ornate costumes several days before the festival.
Visitors can view and take photos with a traditional display of hina dolls in the Cathy Rudd Cultural Corner in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center.
