日本では、11月23日は勤労感謝の日という祝日のため11月24日は振替休日となります。
日本には全部で15の祝日があります。祝日が多いのはうれしいですよね！
ちなみに祝日についてのトリビアですが、明治以降は、天皇の誕生日は祝日となり、天皇が崩御されるとその誕生日が祝日として残ります（大正天皇は例外です）。現在では、文化の日（11月3日）、昭和の日（4月29日）がそれぞれ、明治天皇、昭和天皇の誕生日でした。

In Japan, November 23rd is Labor Thanksgiving Day so that makes November 24th a substitute holiday.
There is a total of 15 national holidays in Japan. Isn't it wonderful that there are so many national holidays?
On a side note, this is trivial but since the Meiji era, the Emperor's birthday became a national holiday and if the Emperor passes away, that day will be considered a national holiday (with the exception of the Emperor Taishou). Currently, the Cultural Day (November 3rd) and the Showa Day (April 29th) are the birthdays of both the Meiji Emperor and Showa Emperor.

In Japan, because November 23rd is a holiday called Labor Thanksgiving Day, November 24th becomes a "substitute" holiday.
In Japan there is a total of 15 holidays. I am happy because there are so many holidays!
By the way, this is trivia about holidays, but after the Meiji Period, the emperor's birthday became a holiday, following the emperor's demise, their birthday remains as a national holiday (Emperor Taisho is an exception). In modern times, Culture Day (November 3rd), and Showa Day (April 29) respectively were the Meiji Emperor's and Showa Emperor's birthdays.
