History
The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar with a history dating back over 2,000 years. While China mainly uses the Gregorian calendar for daily life, the Chinese calendar is still employed to mark important events and holidays. The most popular aspect of the calendar is the twelve lunar animals, one of which appears each year before the cycle begins anew.
