Implementations of Observance for Chinese lunisolar-calendar holidays: Chinese New Year ( ChineseNewYearDay parameterized by day number 1–7, plus the convenience ChineseNewYearFirstDay and ChineseNewYearSecondDay), QingmingFestival, DragonBoatFestival, MidAutumnFestival, and VesakDay.

Chinese New Year's Day is computed algorithmically via Time4J's net.time4j.calendar.ChineseCalendar; other festivals in this package are similarly computed from the underlying lunisolar calendar rather than lookup tables: 


 Observance cnyDay1 = new ChineseNewYearFirstDay();
 Observance cnyDay3 = new ChineseNewYearDay(3);
