A napkin package is difficult to form permanent folding, twisting or corrugation in a leakage preventing wall as folded and wrapped by a packaging sheet, to ensure raising of the leakage preventing wall from a surface of a sanitary napkin after opening the package for achieving satisfactory side leakage preventing effect. A sanitary napkin has longitudinally extending leakage preventing walls on both sides of a liquid absorbing portion. A reinforcement sheet is provided on a surface side of a folded sanitary napkin with covering a portion of the folding line, the reinforcement sheet is bent at a position corresponding to the folding line without forming crease, and portions of the leakage preventing walls located corresponding to the portion across which the folding line extends, are urged onto an outer surface of the bent portion of the reinforcement sheet by the elastic tension force.
