Chinese Lunar Calendar

中国阴历

The Chinese lunar calendar is the longest chronological record in history dating back to 2 600 BC. Like the Gregorian calendar,the Chinese Lunar Calendar is a yearly one, but the start of the lunar year is based on the cycles of the moon so that New Year Day can fall anywhere between late January and the middle of February. Each lunar year is associated with one of 12 zodiac animals.

中国的农历历史可追溯至公元前2600年有着最长的时间顺序记录。像公历，中国农历日历也是一个年度，但农历年的开始是根据月亮的周期，所以元旦会降临在任何地方在一月下旬至二月中旬之间。每个农历年与12生肖动物相关联。
