Japanese Girl's Day
March 3 is Japanese Girls called hina matsuri (hina doll festival) or momo no sekku (peach flower festival). A set of hina dolls wearing kimono is displayed at homes of Japanese girls. It's a celebration for Japanese girls. People pray for girls' happiness and health, eating special food, such as chirashi-zushi (colorful sushi), clam soup, sakura mochi (sweet rice cakes), and more.
