📖 Understanding Public Holidays in Zhejiang

Public offices, banks and schools throughout Zhejiang close on the same fixed-date statutory holidays observed nationwide, since public holidays in China are a matter of national labor law rather than state-by-state decree.

If a statutory holiday lands on a Saturday or Sunday in Zhejiang, the following Monday is commonly declared a substitute non-working day by official gazette — check the live calendar above for the specific year-by-year date.

As Zhejiang's capital, Hangzhou observes the identical statutory calendar — there's no separate capital-city holiday list distinct from the rest of Zhejiang.
