~Kinds of DoLLs in HinaMatsuri~

Minna-san,, here is I show to you the small picture of dolls that usually we see in "HinaMatsuri （ひなまつり）"

Tadaaaaaa......

Kozutsumi （小鼓） - Hand drum

 ~ Zuishiin （随身） - Two Ministers ~

Udaijin （右大臣） - The Minister of the Right

Sadaijin （左大臣） - The Minister of the Left
* The left was considered superior in the old Japanese court, therefore an elder man known of his wisdom was often chosen for this position. This is why a sadaijin doll has a long white beard, and looks older than a udaijin doll.

* It was always planted to the left in the old Japanese court. Since this is a Peach Festival, it is often substituted with a peach tree.
