Planning around December 2027
December is early winter in Japan, cold in the north and mild in the south. The year-end (nenmatsu) brings widespread office closures and one of the year's biggest travel peaks toward New Year.
- Although December has no public holiday, most workplaces close for a year-end and New Year break from late December.
- Travel around the year-end and New Year period is very busy — book ahead.
