How much do you know about The Qixi Festival (Chinese: 七夕)?
It is a Chinese festival, also known as the Qiqiao Festival (Chinese: 乞巧), celebrating the annual meeting of the cowherd and weaver girl in mythology.
The festival is celebrated on the seventh day of the seventh lunisolar month on the Chinese calendar. It has variously been called the Double Seventh Festival, the Chinese Valentine's Day, the Night of Sevens.
The festival was derived from worship of the natural astrology. It is the birthday of the seventh elder sister in the traditional significance. It is called "Qixi Festival" because of the worship of the seventh elder sister held on the seventh night of the seventh lunar month. Gradually, people celebrated for the romantic legend of two lovers, Zhinü and Niulang, who were the weaver girl and the cowherd, respectively. The tale of The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl has been celebrated in the Qixi Festival since the Han dynasty. [from wikipedia]
