Public Holidays

Public holidays are days designated by governments or authorities to honor significant events, cultural traditions, or historical figures. On these days, most workplaces and schools are closed, allowing people to celebrate, reflect, or spend time with family and community. They often feature special ceremonies, events, or customs unique to the occasion. Public holidays help recognize collective identity and history, fostering shared cultural values. The specific holidays vary by country and culture, and some are official statutory days, while others might be observed informally.
