Hinano Tsurushi Kazari Festival

March 02, 2019 / by Junko

Tsurushi-bina (the hanging hina doll decoration) festival in Izu-inatori.
Strings of small cloth dolls are hung on either side of the stand displaying Hina dolls for the girl’s day (dolls) festival.

Those tsurushikazari decorations are so lovely and amazing 😍😍😍

Susanoo shrine @Izu-inatori

Many hina dolls were displayed on the stairs of the shrine!

And don’t forget to enjoy the local food.
Izu-inatori is famous for ‘Kinmedai (金目鯛)’, a kind of red snapper.
Its sashimi melts in your mouth.

I had simmered Kinmedai. It was so tasty😋 I will definitely come back!!

Izu-inatori is only two stations from Kawazu. It was a great combination journey of Kawazu cherry trees and Tsurushi-bina!
