Haru Yokoi Hina Matsuri

Haru Yokoi Hina Matsuri is a hinamatsuri event at Zama Shrine in Zama, Kanagawa. The shrine's 77 stone steps serve as a massive hina display platform, with approximately 1,000 hina dolls lined up in a spectacular sight. Dolls donated by local residents fill the entire stairway, creating a beloved harbinger of spring. While weather-dependent as an outdoor event, clear days offer beautiful hina displays against a blue sky backdrop. Nearby Zama spring water sites and cherry blossom avenues offer additional walking enjoyment.
