Hina-Matsuri “雛祭“

Hina dolls:
A formal set of hina dolls
consists of the Emperor and the Empress,
three court ladies,
five musicians,
two ministers and three servants.
They are arranged on five or seven stepped shelves
that are covered by a red cloth.
The word hina means a small doll.
In the ancient days,
people made dolls by themselves
and threw the dolls into a river along with offerings.
It was believed that sickness
and ill-fortune would flow away down the river with them.
