What is Qixi (七夕)?
Qixi (七夕) is often called “Chinese Valentine’s Day.” It’s associated with the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. In modern cities, many couples celebrate with a date night, flowers, and a meaningful message—similar to Feb 14 but with more traditional flavour.
Simple Qixi celebration ideas
- Evening dinner + a short scenic walk
- Small gift with a note (keep it personal)
- Take a couple photo and write a caption you actually mean
- Do one “together” activity: dessert crawl, movie, exhibition, night market
