|  | Chrysanthemum Dolls This year at Hirakata Park, the theme for their Chrysanthemum Dolls is "Musashi". Every year the park bases its theme on the NHK Historical Drama of that same year. |
Putting the "clothes" on the figures In order to put the "clothes" (made from stocks of chrysanthemum) onto the figures, they take bunches of the flowers, bind them, and arrange them on these wooden frames.
UPDATE: December 2005 marks the end of this event. :( | | |
| | WOW!! Some chrysanthemums are even bigger than your hands... |
