Qi Xi Jie Festival


On the 7th day of the 7th lunar month is also known as Qi Xi Jie. It is a traditional holiday that is well known as China's Valentine's Day. This festival is about a cow herder called Niulang and a weaver of cloud who was also the daughter of the ruler of heaven,Zhinu. They both fell in love but as the law stated that it is forbidden to have a relationship between mortals and immortals. Zhinu's mother seperated them but allows them to meet on a certain date which was known as Qi Xi Jie.


七月初七也称为七夕节。这是一个传统节日也是众所周知的中国的情人节。七夕节讲述的是一个放牛的牧民称为牛郎和一个编制云朵并且也是天国统治者的女儿织女,他们互相都爱上了对方。但作为法律,凡人和神仙是被禁止有这种关系的。 织女的母亲分开了他们,但是允许他们能够某一特定日期相会一次,这一天就被称为七夕节。

  1. ah, Kelvin, I think you want to talk about "七夕" which is the Chinese valentine's day. So we usally call it "七夕情人节”。 it is on the "农历七月七日“。and the girl's name is “织女“。Hope those information is enough for you to change your blog a little bit.
