Answers
There is no single closure pattern for every business. Government offices, banks, post offices and many independent restaurants commonly close on the main holiday, while palaces, museums, amusement parks and chain convenience stores often operate. Department stores may close for one or two days. Subject to on-site change: holiday schedules are set by each operator, so confirm the current notice for the exact place before traveling.
