Calendar edition: 2026 · Dates are generated from the traditional calendar method described below.
Because 2026 is the Bing-Wu (Fire Horse) year, this page is written for decisions being made during the current year. Start with two or three dates from the table, then compare transport schedules, visa rules, local weather, crowds, and cancellation options. The 12 Day Officers score explains the traditional pattern; it is not a promise about an outcome.
Choose several dates with the same rating instead of treating one date as mandatory.
Confirm passports, bookings, insurance, medication, and a backup route.
Treat the traditional rating as cultural context after safety and logistics are settled.
