What place do not have winter and summer solstice?

Places that are close to the equator do not experience much change in the amount of daylight and darkness there is throughout the year. So while the solstices are happening in those parts of the world, they do not experience any major differences. The further you get from the equator and the closer you get to the poles, the more noticeable the effect of a solstice is.


How many days of the year have an equal amount of day and night?

The usual answer is at the March (vernal equinox) and September (autumnal equinox). However this is not really true. Do to effects like refraction, the sun seams to rise earlier and set later than simple geometry would dictate. Thus if you check any almanac, you will see that there are several minutes more of day than night on the equinox days. The actual day of equal day and night would be several days before the March equinox and after the September equinox. The exact day depending on your lattitude.
