What's the matter with 1800 dolls on daughter's day? Japan attaches great importance to daughter's day. About 1800 dolls decorated 60 steps in Japan's Shengpu city. Every year, March 3 is the traditional Japanese 'daughter's Day'. Parents usually decorate dolls at the door of their home to pray for their daughter. In the city of Shengpu, Chiba County, Japan, the tradition has evolved into a grand doll show.
Daughter's day sometimes translates into adult's festival and Peach Blossom Festival. It's a festival for girls to grow up healthily. Some girls' families will show their celebration with Baijiu, lingbing (sticky cake), peach blossom, etc.
Daughter's day has a long history in Japan. It is called "baby sacrifice" in Japanese. And because March 3 of the old calendar is the season when peach blossom is in full bloom, there is also the term "Peach Blossom Festival".
The origin of the festival can be traced back to more than 1000 years ago in the era of peace. At that time, people had the habit of holding "disease free and disaster free" prayer activities on the first day of March. At this time, people called Yin and Yang Masters (diviners) to pray to the gods of heaven and earth, to offer seasonal food, and to swim in the river and sea to make some paper for us, so as to hope that our bad luck would be sent to the dummy and then taken away. And the aristocratic girls of that era had the habit of doll people, the method is similar to our current family, and after a long time, the two customs overlapped and evolved into today's daughter's day.
