Marumage Festivalまるまげ祭り
Annually, a parade of unmarried women in vibrant kimonos, led by girls wearing flower hats known as Hanagasa Doji, makes its way through the streets of Himi City. The Marumage Festival is believed to have originated from the story of geiko (geisha girls) who would visit Senju-ji Temple to pray for a successful marriage while wearing their hair in the marumage style, which is associated with married women.
