When is Valentine's Day in China?

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is Valentine's Day in China.

Qixi, which began in the Han Dynasty, is a traditional cultural festival popular in China and other countries in the cultural circle of Chinese characters.

According to legend, on the night of the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, women begged the Weaver Maid for wisdom and cleverness in the courtyard, so it was called "begging for cleverness".

It originated from the worship of nature and women's needlework, and was later endowed with the legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl, making it a festival symbolizing love. Women on Valentine's Day in China wear needles to seek cleverness and pray for a happy life.
