🎎 The 2025 Katsuura Big Hina Matsuri will take place from February 22 to March 3. During the festival, the people of Katsuura set up Hina doll displays every morning (weather permitting) in time for one of Japan’s oldest morning markets. The main attraction is the 1,800 Hina Dolls that adorn the steep staircase leading up to Tomisaki Shrine. It’s a stunning sight you won’t want to miss if you’re in the Tokyo area during this time. Here’s how to get here by train from Tokyo:

🚉 Tomisaki Shrine is about a 10-minute walk from JR Katsuura Station.
JR Katsuura Station can be reached from Tokyo Station in about 90-minutes by a limited-express Wakashio train.

Footage from February 18, 2024 – so I would expect this year’s peak bloom to come soon.

Kangunzuka in Katsuura City, Chiba is one of my favorite local places to enjoy Kawazu cherry blossoms because it also offers a stunning ocean view. I took these videos on a visit there last year.
