Koinobori is a Japanese decoration that flutters in the wind, made from paper or fabric with a carp pattern. The tradition of hanging koinobori is timed to coincide with Boys' Day on May 5th. @japan…

They are typically made from a woven fabric and flown during the Japanese celebration known as Tango no sekku. This celebration is dedicated to children and also referred to as Children's Day.
