Chinese Valentine’s Day – A day dedicated to romance
Posted on by Caliope Sage
Falling on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, the Chinese Valentine’s Day is steeped in folklore and legends. As per legend, this is the only day that the Weaving Maid, the 7th daughter of the Emperor of the Heaven (Star Vega) meets the orphaned cowherd that she fell in love with(constellation Aquila). The festival takes place with much celebration and the best way to fully experience the festival is by seeking appropriate Beijing accommodation. Ascott Beijing is a highly preferred luxury apartment in Beijing by many who have wandered this way with the aim of witnessing the fascinating array of festivals that it celebrates on a frequent basis. Also known as the Qi Qiao Jie, or the seventh eve, the Chinese Valentine’s Day is a day dedicated to love. While bouquets of flowers, candies and hearts still flutter about the place, colourful shrines are put up along with fruits and flowers as tribute to Niu Lang and Zhi Nu, the lovers separated by the Emperor of Heaven. Young girls display their needle work while burning incense and making offerings to the night sky.
