Buddhist calendar
The Buddhist calendar is used on mainland
Southeast Asia
in the countries of
Cambodia
,
Laos
,
Thailand
,
Myanmar
(formerly
Burma
) and
Sri Lanka
in several related forms. It is a
lunisolar calendar
having months that are alternately 29 and 30 days, with an intercalated day and a 30-day month added at regular intervals. All of its forms are based on the original
third century
Surya Siddhanta
, not its modern form (both forms are used by the various
Hindu calendars
).
