    According to the JR rail pass site, it says "in 2020, April 29 falls on a Wednesday. Festivities and travel are expected to continue through Tuesday, May 5." Hope that helps for any travel planning you're doing!

    Golden Week is on the same date every year. It consists of the National Holidays April 29 and May 3 to 5. If one of these falls on a Sunday the next following workday would turn into a holiday. In 2020 May 3 is on a Sunday so May 6 becomes a holiday. In 2019 Golden Week was longer than usual due to the new era starting.

What Chiba places, cuisine, events, experiences enrich your Japan life?

The Chiba Prefecture government's international affairs division invites foreign resident volunteers to share the Chiba spots we love. I can't attend because of work obligations, but I can share your faves by email. What in Chiba lit you up - food, shops, nature, festivals, events, and experiences? Conversely, what didn't work out or confounded you? Photo tax - irises at Noda City's Sogo Park.
