Data
The dates are computed by this site from the Act on National Holidays (Act No. 178 of 1948). The Vernal and Autumnal Equinox Days are the dates published by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) in its yearly almanac summary, used under its terms of use.
Every date was compared with the table in that summary. Years it has not published yet are not shown.
