What makes the 60th birthday so special?

by ashbourne2 @ 2007-12-05 - 01:03:36

I reported the live of Elton a week ago. I mentioned that he was in red tail coat and the 60-year-old person wears red clothes in the special coming-of-age celebration. It's a Japanese custom "Kanreki" or "end of the traditional sexagenary cycle". From the Chinese calender, but I'm not sure the custom like "Kanreki" is in China. 

Sorry I forgot to answer the question of MrFlighty.
See here for details.

1週間前に、Elton John がコンサートで赤い燕尾服を着ていたことを書きました。60歳のお祝いで赤いものを身に付けるのは、日本の習慣で「還暦」と言います。これは中国の暦から来ているのですが、中国でも同じ習慣があるのかは知りません。

MrFlightyのコメントに答えるのを忘れていました。ゴメンナサイ。
