How does kanjiza.com handle holidays?
On holidays the site switches to an “uncertain” mode: business cards and the map show an amber badge instead of the green “Open”: May be open
Below the opening hours on profiles there is always a note: “Opening hours may differ on public holidays.” On the day itself a highlighted strip shows the holiday name and the business phone number.
Local businesses follow their own schedule on holidays, so it is best to call ahead.
kanjiza.com calculates opening hours based on information provided by local businesses. On regular days, accuracy depends on owners keeping their hours up to date. If you notice any discrepancy or wish to update your business hours, please let us know!
