敬老の日
高齢者を敬い、その長寿を祝う国民の祝日
In Japan, there is a special holiday to honor and show respect to older people and celebrate their long lives. This day encourages gratitude and recognition for the wisdom and contributions of elders in society. It began in a small village in 1947 as "Old Folks' Day" and became a national holiday in 1966. Many people give gifts or hold community events to celebrate.
