The next festival in my country is the Qixi Festival. It is on lunar July 7th every year. It 's also known as the Chinese Valentine's Day. Many people like to make a proposal on this day.It sounds romantic! I have introduced this festival before. In ancient time, people could see the Galaxy very clear on lunar July. It looks like a bright river in the sky. On each side of the Galaxy , there are two brightest stars. The two stars look at each other, but they never get together due to the "wide river". Ancient people slowly imagined them as a pair of couples who loved each other deeply, but didn't get permisssion from their parents. So, they can just see each other , but can't get together. It sounds sad. Later, people gave the story a better end. They thought that on July 7th, when the "river" was brightest, a lot of magpies would fly towards the Galaxy and build a brige for them. They will meet on the bridge for one night. August 10th is this special day, if the sky is clear, let's witness the greatest love story!
