2020 Public Holidays in Japan
2020 Public Holidays in Japan When traveling, tourist crowds are part of the equation. But sometimes the crowds are a lil’ bit busier than normal… Because of local public holidays! The most important public holiday period to know about is Golden Week, which runs from the end of April to the start of May. Check out the table below for more information! In 2020, Tokyo is hosting the Summer Olympics. If you’re planning a visit to Japan this year (and you’re not keen on the Olympics) this is something to be careful of! Flights will cost more and there will be a higher demand for accommodation. In Japan, public holidays usually mean extra busy long weekends, so we’ve outlined the busy period too. The column titled “Date” is the date of the actual public holiday. The column titled “Long Weekend” is the estimated long weekend. Public Holiday Date Long Weekend January New Years Day 1st January Coming of Age Day 13th January 11th - 13th January February Foundation Day 11th February 8th - 11th February March Vernal Equinox Day 20th March 20th - 22nd March April + May Showa Day 29th April These public holidays are combined to form what is Constitution Memorial Day 3rd May known as Golden Week. This busy period is Greenery Day 4th May between 27th April - 6th Children’s Day 5th May May June None © THE WANDERING SUITCASE | THEWANDERINGSUITCASE.COM 2020 Public Holidays in Japan Public Holiday Date Long Weekend July Marine Day 23rd July Eve of Olympics Opening Ceremony Health and Sports Day 24th July Day of Olympics Opening Ceremony August Mountain Day 10th August Day after Olympics Closing Ceremony September Respect for the Aged Day 21st September 19th - 22nd September Autumn Equinox Day 22nd September November Culture Day 3rd November 2nd - 4th November Labor Thanksgiving Day 23rd November 21st - 23rd November December None © THE WANDERING SUITCASE | THEWANDERINGSUITCASE.COM.

Written by Leading Experts on Japanese Sport
“Written by leading experts on Japanese sport and society, this is the perfect guide for anyone – sports fan, tourist, or armchair viewer – wanting to know the inside story about the Games and Japan in the 21st century.” Packed with information about the city, Olympic sports, and wider social issues in Japan, the book provides snapshots, in a pocket-sized form, of the essential background to the Olympics in 2020. John Horne, Waseda University, Japan “This is the first – and possibly only – book which explains contemporary Japan through the prism of the Olympics and the Olympics through the lens of Japanese society. Full of fascinating insights and information, it is sure to become a bible for anyone intending to attend (or even just watch) the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. Definitely a winner.” Roger Goodman, University of Oxford, UK “There is much more on the line at the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics than the competition among the athletes. The impacts of the Games them- selves, and their lead-up and legacy, will be equally portentous for Tokyo and for Japan. This comprehensive collection by experienced Japan researchers offers highly informative and smartly written commentaries on the social, political, and economic ramifications of Tokyo 2020. Urban infrastructure, regional disparities, food sustainability, school curriculum, political jockeying, LGBTQ rights, and language diversity are just some of the topics surveyed in these absorbing essays. This is an essential briefing for anyone wishing to know what is at stake as Tokyo hosts this global sporting mega-event.” William W. Kelly, Yale University, USA “This book is the perfect companion for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

Di Jepang: Suatu Pendekatan Etnolinguistik
NILAI BUDAYA DALAM LEKSIKON NAMA HARI LIBUR NASIONAL (SHUKUJITSU) DI JEPANG: SUATU PENDEKATAN ETNOLINGUISTIK Oleh Nani Sunarni [email protected] Fakultas Ilmu Budaya, Universitas Padjadjaran ABSTRAK Berdasarkan kalender Jepang dalam setahun terdapat lima belas hari libur nasional (shukujitsu). Setiap shukujitsu memiliki nama berupa leksikon. Dan dari setiap leksikon mampu mengungkapkan realitas budaya bangsa Jepang yang sarat nilai budaya keharmonian. Keharmonian tersebut menunjukkan adanya keharmonian antara bangsa Jepang dengan Tuhannya, dengan Tenno, dengan sesama, dan dengan alamnya. Selain itu, dari leksikon shukujitsu tersebut dapat merepresentasikan adanya hubungan sosial budaya masyarakat Jepang yang menganut sistem joge kankei dan merepresentasikan hubungan horizontal antara manusia Jepang dengan alam. Kata Kunci: nilai budaya, keharmonian, shukujitsu, etnolinguistik, joge kankei 1.
