Public Holiday

Culture Day (Japan)

A day for promotion of culture and the love of freedom and peace. On culture day, schools and the government award selected persons for their special, cultural achievements. The day was originally a public holiday because it was Emperor Meiji's birthday. Later in 1946, the post-war constitution was promulgated on the this date which led to the establishment of Culture Day.
