It is a "Hinamatsuri" event in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. At the former Yamamura family residence in the Hamasaki Denken district, a checkered doll called "Hoko-san" was also on display. "Hoko-san and Hoko dolls" are generally given to celebrate the first festival of a baby girl. In the past, they were dressed in maternity clothes, which were also given to the celebration, and decorated with Hina dolls. It seems like everyone is staring at you, and I'm a little intimidated.

It is "Mantoukai" in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Every year, Daishoin Temple and Tokoji Temple, the bodhi temples of the Mōri family, the lord of the Hagi clan, are the stage. To mourn Mohri's bodhi, more than 500 stone lanterns are lit by candles, creating a fantastic world. The photo shows the "Welcome Fire" held at Daishoin Temple on August 13.

It is a festival "Yanai Goldfish Lantern Festival" in Yanai City, Yamaguchi Prefecture.

The faintly lit "goldfish lanterns" in the white-walled city are somewhat humorous, and the gentle lights leaking from the "goldfish lanterns" create a fantastic atmosphere.

In 2023, it will be lit from July 22 Saturday ~ August 31 Thursday from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. in the Retro-dori area from the white-walled streetscape.
Please come to Yamaguchi Prefecture.
