It is customary for the reigning emperor's birthday in Japan to be a public holiday. Libraries, zoos, museums, etc. are still open as well as convenience, department, and grocery stores. But schools, city offices, banks, and various businesses have a free day!]]> https://exotericjapan.com/events/emperor-reiwas-birthday/feed/ 1 https://exotericjapan.com/june-brides-in-japan-%e3%82%b8%e3%83%a5%e3%83%bc%e3%83%b3%e3%83%96%e3%83%a9%e3%82%a4%e3%83%89/ Tue, 14 Jul 2020 08:00:47 +0000 https://whatilikeaboutjapan.com/?p=10898 https://exotericjapan.com/tsuyu-survival-guide/ Sat, 20 Jun 2020 13:36:44 +0000 https://whatilikeaboutjapan.com/?p=10900 https://exotericjapan.com/exploring-saitama-prefecture-japan-on-foot/ Thu, 04 Jun 2020 05:58:24 +0000 https://whatilikeaboutjapan.com/?p=10891 https://exotericjapan.com/events/nyubai-or-the-beginning-of-the-rainy-season-in-japan-%e5%85%a5%e6%a2%85%e3%80%80%e3%81%ab%e3%82%85%e3%81%86%e3%81%b0%e3%81%84-or-%e6%a2%85%e9%9b%a8%e5%85%a5%e3%82%8a%e3%80%80%e3%81%a4%e3%82%86/ https://exotericjapan.com/events/nyubai-or-the-beginning-of-the-rainy-season-in-japan-%e5%85%a5%e6%a2%85%e3%80%80%e3%81%ab%e3%82%85%e3%81%86%e3%81%b0%e3%81%84-or-%e6%a2%85%e9%9b%a8%e5%85%a5%e3%82%8a%e3%80%80%e3%81%a4%e3%82%86/#respond Mon, 01 Jun 2020 02:51:02 +0000 https://whatilikeaboutjapan.com/?post_type=mec-events&p=10870 NyuBai or TsuyuIri is the official beginning of the rainy season in Japan.
