The Chinese calendar is lunisolar, incorporating elements of a lunar
calendar with those of a solar calendar. This measure of time is not
exclusive to China, but followed by many other Asian cultures. It is
often referred to by the Western cultures as the Chinese calendar
because it was first used by the Chinese. In most of East Asia today,
the Gregorian calendar is used for day to day activities, but the
Chinese calendar is still used for marking traditional East Asian
holidays such as the Lunar New Year (Spring Festival), and in China
the Duan Wu festival, and the Mid-Autumn Festival, and in astrology,
such as choosing the most auspicious date for a wedding or the opening
of a building. Because each month follows one cycle of the moon, it is
also used to determine the phases of the moon.



Solar term

Chinese months follow the phases of the moon. As a result, they do not
accurately follow the seasons of the solar year. To assist farmers to
decide when to plant or harvest crops, the drafters of the calendar
put in 24 seasonal markers, which follow the solar year, and are
called jiéqì 節氣.
