The Mayan calendar is based on the interaction and movements of the sun, moon and Earth. It works with the natural energies of the galactic ebbs and flows.

The Mayan calendar, like our calendar, is based on cycles. However, it is more complex, with multiple interlocking calendars that track different aspects of time. Both calendars have a 365-day year, but the Mayan calendar also includes longer cycles that repeat over thousands of years.

You read the Mayan calendar from the inside out, like a spiral or pinwheel. Even if you learn to decipher it, it will still be difficult to read.

Why is the Chinese calendar different to ours?

You did not identify which calendar you mean by "ours", which in itself kind of answers your question. Around the world there are many different calendars being used, based on things like culture or religion. In terms of duration, some are based on the sun and some on the moon and some combining the two. So your calendar, be it the Islamic or Jewish or Gregorian or Bengali or one of the many others used, would be different to the Chinese calendar and all of the other ones.
