According to the Chinese lunar calendar, the big month has 30 days, the small month has 29 days, and a year has 12 months * * 354 or 355 days, which is about 1 1 day less than the days in a tropical year. After four years, it is less than 1 month. Over time, there will be a strange phenomenon of time sequence and time disorder.
In order to solve this problem, the method of adding "leap month" is adopted. The leap month occurred in June this year, which not only delayed Valentine's Day in China, but also delayed the Mid-Autumn Festival. In addition, the Lunar Mid-Autumn Festival generally occurs between September 7th and June 6th in the solar calendar 10, resulting in the calendar phenomenon that the Mid-Autumn Festival coincides with the National Day.
Extended data:
National Day is also called the 11th National Day, China National Day and National Day Golden Week. Because 1 950,65438+101is the day when People's Republic of China (PRC) was proclaimed, that is, the National Day.
Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional folk festival in China. The Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena and evolved from the worship of the autumn moon in ancient times. At first, the festival of "Sacrificing the Moon" was held on the "Autumn Equinox" of the twenty-four solar terms in the Ganzhi calendar, and later it was moved to August 15th in the summer calendar (lunar calendar). Since 2008, Chinese mainland has made Mid-Autumn Festival a legal holiday. If it happens to be Saturday and Sunday, take a day off next Monday.
