From Saturday, the 19th<\/sup> to today, the 23rd<\/sup> of September this year, these five days turn to consecutive public holidays in Japan. Saturday and Sunday are usual weekend, Monday the 21st<\/sup> was Respect for the aged day (that is why this holiday week is called Silver Week<\/i>), Wednesday the 23rd<\/sup> is Autumnal equinox day. Since Tuesday the 22nd<\/sup> was sandwiched with two public holidays, this day also became a public holiday in due course. Naturally many people travel around during this week. But nothing lasts forever; they will have to go back to school or work tomorrow, massive traffic jam has been created since yesterday by people heading home.<\/div>\n

The longest one is apparently 55 kilometers! If you access to the site<\/a> of Asahi Shimbun Newspaper<\/i>, you can see some photos of the traffic jam!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
