Greenery Day is a public holiday in Japan that derives from the celebration of Emperor Hirohito’s birthday. During the Shōwa era (1926-1989) it was celebrated on April 29 each year, while since 2007 it has been celebrated on May 4. As the name suggests, it is a day to commune with nature and show gratitude for its blessings.
