<\/p>\nIn Yame, long known for its tradition of hina doll making, the Dolls Festival season sees the entire town transformed into a place of display. Centered around the white-walled streetscape, hina dolls are exhibited throughout the town, with around 100 locations taking part, including Edo- and Meiji-period townhouses, private homes, and local shops. As a visual guide for visitors, peach-colored lanterns are hung outside participating venues. The displays range from simple, locally handed-down hako-bina (boxed hina dolls) to contemporary hina dolls, offering a broad look at the diverse hina culture that has developed in Yame over time. At the Yame Doll Hall, visitors can also view hina dolls associated with former daimyo families and the shogunate, providing insight into more formal and elite traditions. In addition, a marche is held on March 7 ~ 8 around Fukushima Hachimangu Shrine, adding a lively, community-focused element to the festival atmosphere.<\/p>\n
