One-click French vacation: one year off for five weeks

 

I am afraid there is no one who can enjoy the romance and leisure of French life. There are more than 365 days of vacation in a year. There are two main reasons for the holiday: First, national statutory festivals, mostly traditional religious festivals. According to statistics, apart from regular weekend breaks, france's annual statutory holidays mainly include New Year's Day, Easter Day, Labor Day, anniversary of the victory of the Second World War, Jesus Day, the Holy Spirit day, National Day, the Holy Lady Day, Halloween, the truce Day of the First World War, and Christmas..
Although it is legal to only take the day off, there is still an unwritten "Holiday bridge" in France: If the statutory holiday is on Thursday or Tuesday, then, you can rest the work days on Friday or Monday on the same weekend, so it is easy to catch up with a few "bridge" holidays in a year.
Another type of vacation is paid annual leave as stipulated in the national labor law. Generally, after one year of normal work, you can enjoy 5 weeks of annual leave. Of course, there may be slight differences between enterprises. Generally, the annual leave in May 7 and August is a top priority for many French citizens.
