Introduction to Tibetan calendar:

Before 1000 BC, Tibetans had their own calendars to calculate the days, months and years according to the moon's profit and loss. Hundreds of years later, Tibet's primitive religion "Yongzhongben" can accurately calculate the time to return to the sun from winter to Sunday, and take it as the beginning of the year, forming festivals and various ceremonies. Many customs and lifestyles of modern Tibetans have also been handed down from the ancient Xiangxiong era.

During the Tubo period in the 7th century A.D., two princesses, Wencheng and Jincheng, entered Tibet to marry and form an alliance, bringing the calendar of the mainland. The Almanac of Democratic Forest was published in 1 1 century, and the Almanac of Tibet in 1206 was called the Almanac of Sagar.

The time-wheel calendar, which began in 1027, has been circulating in Tibet for more than 1000 years, and it comes from the astronomical knowledge in Time-wheel Classic.

It is roughly the same as the 60-year calendar of the Chinese mainland lunar calendar. For example, the year of Shen Bing in 20 16 is called the Year of the Fire Monkey; However, the full moon is the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and the first day may be the same day or a different day from the mainland lunar calendar, and the setting of leap months is also different. In a year with leap months, the difference between two first days is one month or one month plus one day.

The Tibetan calendar proved by the existing history books first appeared in the13rd century (Yuan Dynasty), and by the19th century, the compilation of the Tibetan calendar had been perfected.
