About prayer
Hina dolls are an irreplaceable "form of prayer"
Since ancient times, Hina dolls have been said to be vessels that take on the misfortunes and illnesses of children.
It is imbued with the wish to "prevent misfortune from befalling oneself" and the wish to "gain happiness in life."
They are treasured and displayed as talismans even today.

We offer blessings for all of our Hina dolls and deliver them with care so that you can welcome the sacred celebratory event of the Festival in peace and joy.

<About Wake Shrine>
Wake Shrine is a historic shrine whose main deity is Wake no Kiyomaro, a loyal retainer of the Nara period, and whose elder sister, Wake no Hiromushihime, is also enshrined there.
Princess Hiromushi is known for taking in 83 orphaned children during times of war and famine and raising them as a surrogate parent, and she is still deeply revered today as the "guardian deity of children."
"I wish my child happiness"
