Abstract

As a part of the traditional Chinese festival culture, Qixi not only contains the values of yearning for love and family happiness, but also embodies the desire for wisdom, the pursuit of skills, and the incentive to create. To explore its customs in history and at present is of vital significance to interpret its connotations and inherit the spirit behind it. Furthermore, it also serves as an effective channel to know the fine traditional Chinese culture and the Chinese nation.
