What does a calendar mean?

Calendar is a traditional date calculation method, also known as lunar calendar. According to the changes of moon phases and solar terms, it is widely used in China, Korean Peninsula, Viet Nam and other countries. There are two kinds of calendars: lunar calendar and solar calendar. The calculation method of the lunar calendar is complicated, but it occupies an important position in China culture.

Legal history has been widely used in agriculture, astronomical observation, religious ceremonies and so on. People will arrange farming activities such as planting and harvesting according to the date of the lunar calendar, and hold various celebrations and festivals. At the same time, calendars are also used by astronomers to observe the changes of celestial phenomena as a reference for celestial movements.

Although the solar calendar has been widely used in modern society, the calendar still plays an important role in China and other traditional cultures. Traditional festivals in China, such as Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, are based on the date of the lunar calendar. At the same time, many people also refer to the lunar calendar when choosing important dates such as wedding day. Therefore, respecting and maintaining calendar culture is also an important way to maintain traditional culture.
