LOL I have to agree with Koichi being #1 since he himself said that he's always cooped out at home with his chihuahua petdog & staring at the 4 walls in his house -_-'''

Golden Week is a long holiday for the Japanese , Lisa & Bryan

it actually started last week on the last week of April cos

April 29: Showa Day

The birthday of former Emperor Showa. Before 2007, April 29 was known as Greenery Day (now celebrated on May 4). Due to the way the weekdays fall in 2010, Showa Day is an isolated holiday and not really part of Golden Week.

May 3: Constitution Day

A national holiday remembering the new constitution, which was put into effect after the war. Part of the Golden Week till 5 May.

May 4: Greenery Day

Until 2006, Greenery Day was celebrated on April 29, the former Emperor Showa’s birthday, due to the emperor’s love for plants and nature. It is now celebrated on May 4. This national holiday is celebrated as a day to commune with nature and be grateful for its blessings.

May 5: Children's Day

Also called boy’s festival, this is a day on which to esteem the personalities of children and plan for their happiness

it is as big as the New Year holidays & all the 4 dates are considered public holidays in Japan

so banks , offices , post offices , you name it , all will be closed pretty much on this week

Edit: Karen beat me to it.

I agree with those who want to stay home. Tokyo kind of empties out during that time, so traveling outside of Tokyo, things are really crowded. I went to Karuizawa this week for Golden week and on the way home had to stand on a 1 1/2 hour long bullet train ride.
