Today marks Qixi festival, or Chinese Valentine's Day. In Chinese mythology, Qixi Festival — the seventh day of the seventh lunar month — celebrates the annual meeting of Niulang, a cowherd, and Zhinu, a weaver girl. In the legend, the two lovers travel across the Milky Way and walk down a bridge formed by magpies to reunite with each other.
Where will you spend this romantic day with your loved one? Why not come to Yantai, a coastal city in East China's Shandong province, and enjoy a unique sense of romance?
