Explanation and Etymology - (還暦) kanreki

還暦 (kanreki) is a Japanese word that refers to a person's sixtieth birthday. The word is composed of two kanji characters: 還 (kan), which means "return" or "come back", and 暦 (reki), which means "calendar" or "age". The combination of these two characters represents the complete cycle of a lunar calendar, which is 60 years. Kanreki is considered an important milestone in a person's life in Japan and is celebrated with parties and special gifts. The tradition dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when it was believed that the age of 60 was a time of renewal and rejuvenation.
