China Public Holidays 2010 Calendar

Here is the list of public holidays observed in China. You may note that some falls on Saturday or Sunday. This is norm in the seven working days China.

Majority of the public holidays are traditional holidays, some dating back to pre-Civil war era. The only international holidays observed here are New Year 1 January 2010 and May Day 1 May 2010.

The China Government will usually announce official holiday dates nearer to closing of the preceding year (in this case year 2009), so for time being, hopefully this calendar is good to make some planning.
