Cambodia Buddhist Era & Zodiac Calendar

The Cambodia Buddhist Era & Zodiac Calendar converts Gregorian calendar years into the traditional Buddhist Era (B.E. / ពុទ្ធសករាជ) and identifies the corresponding Cambodian lunar zodiac animal (ឆ្នាំ) and astrological cycle (ស័ក). In Cambodia, the Buddhist Era is calculated by adding 543 or 544 years to the Western calendar year depending on the lunar New Year celebration.
