Lunar Calendar
The Chinese models have two calendars: one
based on the Western solar calendar system and
one based on the Chinese lunar system. Before the
solar calendar was adopted, China exclusively fol-
lowed a lunar to decide the times of planning, har- vesting and festival occasions. Today the solar
calendar is used for most practical matters of daily
life but the lunar calendar is still important because
it determines numerous seasonal holidays such as
the Traditional New Year.
