SUZAKA, Nagano -- A full 1,000 hina dolls for the March 3 Hina Doll Festival for girls are on display on a 6-meter-tall, 30-tiered stand at a museum here.

Visitors to the museum have expressed surprise at the exhibits. "I'm overwhelmed by the dolls. Each one has a happy expression," said Yumiko Suzuki, 25, from Ueda, Nagano Prefecture.

The dolls exhibition at the World Folk Doll Museum in Suzaka is on until April 13, as part of the traditional Hina Doll Festival. The festival is supposed to bring young girls beauty and happiness.
