It is annually celebrated on the 14<sup>th<\/sup> of February. We usually celebrate valentine as a day of love and give chocolate to our partner. However, in Japan, this day is celebrated in a different way. There, the women give chocolate to the men. The chocolate itself has two different types which are the \u201c<em>Giri<\/em>\u201d Choco and \u201c<em>Honmei<\/em>\u201d Choco. The first one is intended for colleagues, boss and male friends. The latter though, is given to male crush, boyfriend or husband. Usually, <em>Honmei<\/em> Choco is hand-made by the women as a form of love and they think store-bought chocolate is not a true representation of love.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aside Valentine day, the Japanese also has White Day which is celebrated on the 14 March. In this day, the men have to answer or reply the chocolate given by the women from the previous Valentine\u2019s day. Also, the chocolate given is usually white in accordance to the day\u2019s name: White Day. Flowers, candies and also gifts are also given with the chocolate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">White Day was first celebrated in 1977. White Day was started by the National Confectionery Industry Association as an &#8220;answer day&#8221; to Valentine&#8217;s Day on the grounds that men should pay back the women who gave them chocolate and other gifts on Valentine&#8217;s Day. Eventually, this practice spread to the neighboring East Asian countries of China and Vietnam. In those cultures, White Day is for the most part observed in a similar manner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>source: https:\/\/galitravel.ru \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We all heard about Valentine\u2019s day.
