Ono Kokokan Big Hinamatsuri

The Ono Kokokan Big Hinamatsuri is a large-scale hina doll exhibition at the history museum in Ono City, Hyogo. Approximately 84 sets and 717 hina dolls spanning from the late Edo period to Heisei are displayed, including precious dolls from the Hitotsusyanagi clan (former lords of Ono Domain) and local merchant families. The comprehensive exhibition shows the evolution of hina dolls through the ages, with popular curator-led guided tours. A spring citizens' tea ceremony is held on March 1. The 'Jinya-machi Hina Meguri' extends displays to other venues across the city.
